Visteon Enhances DriveCore Studio through Microsoft Azure Software for Cloud Development of Autonomous Driving Systems
January 08 2019 - 8:00AM
Visteon Corporation (Nasdaq: VC), a leading automotive cockpit
technology company, is enhancing its DriveCore Studio™ autonomous
driving development environment through software from Microsoft
Corp. that maximizes the power and scalability of the cloud.
DriveCore Studio™ – part of Visteon’s DriveCore™ autonomous
driving platform – now allows developers to tap into Microsoft
Azure cloud, Microsoft’s global, hyper-scale intelligent cloud, to
develop, test and validate algorithms. With global coverage from
data center regions worldwide, the Microsoft solution brings highly
scalable levels of processing power to DriveCore Studio™, allowing
automakers and developers to securely meet the computing demands of
Level 3-plus autonomous systems.
DriveCore™ was designed as a complete technology platform,
consisting of the hardware, in-vehicle middleware and PC-based
software toolset needed to develop machine learning algorithms for
autonomous driving applications of Level 3 and above.
A cloud-based development environment, DriveCore Studio™ enables
automakers and partners to create and support an ecosystem of
algorithm developers, unlocking innovation potential through an
open framework for developing algorithms using sensor-based
artificial intelligence. It allows easy integration of third-party
algorithms and access to real-life sensor data – complemented by a
simulation, validation and benchmarking environment for perception
algorithms for object detection and feature-based path
planning.
“Meeting the computing demands of Level 3-plus autonomous
driving solutions will require collaboration from multiple
companies offering specific expertise,” said Markus Schupfner,
Visteon senior vice president and chief technology officer.
“DriveCore Studio™ on Microsoft Azure enables Visteon to reach more
customers and developers, and speed up our autonomous development
efforts. This is a prime example of seamlessly integrating cloud
solutions within the automotive cockpit environment to benefit
global vehicle manufacturers.”
Visteon will host demonstrations of DriveCore™ at CES 2019,
where it will also showcase the integration of DriveCore™ with its
SmartCore™ cockpit domain controller. The integration of these two
platforms – combined with artificial intelligence and a new breed
of larger, curved displays – establishes a new architecture to
enable the new requirements of electric and automated vehicles.
CES 2019 will mark Visteon’s 20th year as an exhibitor, which
ranks the company among the longest-running show participants in
the automotive industry. For those attending CES, Visteon can be
found in Central Plaza Pavilion 13
