MediaTek will be able to use Nvidia’s software, including Drive OS, Drive IX, Cuda, and TensorRT machine learning. These software applications will be used for the information, entertainment, and security functions of vehicles running on the Dimensity Auto platform.
Currently, MediaTek’s Dimensity Auto platform powers multi-screen setups, high dynamic range cameras, and audio processing in the Auto Cockpit. However, the company aims to strengthen its presence in the automotive world by incorporating Nvidia’s technologies.
According to research firm Gartner, the market for infotainment chips used in vehicles is projected to reach $12 billion in 2023. It is not known which car manufacturers will be the first to test the collaboration between Nvidia and MediaTek.
