As 2024 witnesses' significant advancements in worldwide autonomous driving technology, the adoption of Level 4 self-driving vehicles is approaching a pivotal moment for widespread implementation. The end-to-end large model technology in autonomous driving has stimulated the demand for high-performance computing. Lenovo's intelligent driving domain controller product line utilizes NVIDIA DRIVE Thor, incorporating FP4 and FP8 operations into AI inference. This ensures greater efficiency and maintains high precision (comparable to FP16), resulting in a fivefold increase in the inference speed of Transformer models. WeRide has chosen Lenovo's domain control scheme, which is based on NVIDIA DRIVE, for its next-generation autonomous driving technology platform.
隨着2024年全球自動駕駛技術的重大進步，4級自動駕駛汽車的採用已接近廣泛實施的關鍵時刻。自動駕駛中的端到端大型模型技術刺激了對高性能計算的需求。聯想的智能駕駛域控制器產品線採用NVIDIA DRIVE Thor，將FP4和FP8操作整合到人工智能推理中。這可確保更高的效率並保持高精度（與 FP16 相當），從而使 Transformer 模型的推理速度提高了五倍。WeRide已爲其下一代自動駕駛技術平台選擇了基於NVIDIA DRIVE的聯想域控制方案。
In the future, Lenovo will offer its cost-effective domain controllers tailored for L3 & L2++ ADAS market, with various configurations to provide solutions for safer and more convenient ADAS features. Lenovo UltraBoost AI middleware is also compatible with the domain controllers, further enhancing computational efficiency, operator enhancement, and task scheduling.
未來，聯想將提供專爲L3和L2++ ADAS市場量身定製的高性價比域控制器，具有多種配置，爲更安全、更便捷的ADAS功能提供解決方案。聯想 UltraBoost AI 中間件還與域控制器兼容，進一步提高了計算效率、操作員增強和任務調度。
