Freescale Semiconductor (FSL) Monday introduced the S32V vision microprocessor, the first automotive vision system-on-chip or SoC with the requisite reliability, safety and security measures to automate and 'co-pilot' a self-aware car.
According to the company, the S32V takes the industry beyond the current, convenience-centric "assist" paradigm and toward an era where cars can capture data, process it and actually share control with drivers in critical situations.
This capability establishes the essential bridge from the current "assist" era toward the fully autonomous vehicles of tomorrow, Freescale Semiconductor said.
The S32V microprocessor is structurally designed to comply with stringent ISO 26262 functional safety standards, and engineered for automotive-grade quality metrics measured in parts per billion.
