NXP developed its “BlueBox” autonomous driving platform. It incorporates an automotive vision and sensor fusion processor capable of processing AI applications.
The BlueBox engine processes multiple streams of sensor data, which can come from cameras and RADAR or LiDAR, the support of sensor fusion is a powerful key and crucial feature for autonomous vehicles.
The BlueBox has a total computing power of 90,000 DMIPS (Dhrystone Million Instructions Per Second) while the total power consumption of the processor is less than 40 watts.
