The ES90 will be Volvo's first vehicle to use Nvidia's system-on-a-chip, enabling it to perform core functions at lightning-fast speeds. This is made possible by the computer's ability to perform 508 trillion operations per second (TOPS), which will be crucial in managing functionalities such as AI-based, state-of-the-art active safety features, car sensors, and efficient battery management.
The ES90 will be built on Volvo's SPA2 architecture and will be the second vehicle, after the EX90, to use its Superset tech stack. Superset is a modular engineering platform that Volvo plans to use to make safer cars more efficiently and to improve them over time through over-the-air software updates, similar to the approach pioneered by Tesla.
The Orin system represents an eightfold improvement in processing speeds over the San Jose-based chipmaker's Xavier computer that featured in the 2018 announcement of a partnership between Volvo and Nvidia. The increased processing power will enable Volvo to gradually enhance its deep learning model and neural network from 40 million to 200 million parameters.
The ES90 will be Volvo's first vehicle to come with the Nvidias system-on-a-chip, enabling it to perform core functions at lightning fast speeds thanks to the computers abilities to perform 508 trillion operations per second (TOPS).
