Nvidia Drive PX2 Super Computer GPU of 8 TeraFLOPS

CES 2016: Nvidia today announced the Nvidia Drive PX2. According to CEO Jen-Hsun Huang, it's essentially a supers for your car, made of 12 CPU cores and four GPUs, all liquid-cooled. Nvidia Drive PX2

This equates to approximately 8 TeraFLOPS of processing power. It's as powerful as 6 Titan X graphics cards, and the company compares it to “around 150 Pro” for self-driving applications.

Of course that much processing power is only needed for an extended Nvidia's open learning platform – called DriveNet. DriveNet is essentially a way for computers to learn to recognize objects better.

A demo showed how the car could detect objects in real time, without relying on processing from the cloud.

Nvidia says that the "marriage" of GPUs and CUDA processing technology can greatly speed up learning processes (20 to 40 times). In other words, learning a process that would once take a month would take just one day.

Η πρώτη εταιρεία που θα εφαρμόσει την αυτόνομη πλατφόρμα οδήγησης που στηρίζεται στην Nvidia Drive PX2 θα είναι η Volvo, ενώ πρόκειται να ακολουθήσουν: , Mercedez-Benz και Daimler.
