NVIDIA MapWorks leverages NVIDIA DRIVE™ PX AI supercomputer, coupled with NVIDIA Tesla® GPUs in the data center, to accelerate the creation and updating of highly detailed maps for autonomous vehicles. Traditional mapping techniques have required numerous expensive sensors in the car to collect massive volumes of data that were recorded and then processed offline. Conversely, this HD mapping system is highly-efficient, moving processing data into the vehicle, and minimizing communication with the cloud. The process that used to take weeks can now happen in near real-time.
