Used in smart vehicle computing platform, the Journey 5 is available for rapid volume production, the first of its kind in China. The company said it outperforms NVIDIA's Orin in terms of running points. Single chip of the Journey 5 boasts an AI powering power of up to 128 TOPS.

Moreover, the newly-launched chip supports 16-channel camera perception and the demands for multi-sensor fusion, prediction, planning, and control.

The startup claimed the Journey 5 is China’s first automotive-grade AI chip according with the ISO 26262 functional safety automotive standard.

The computing platform based on the Journey 5 chip features an AI computing power of 200-1,000 TOPS. The company said the platform can create more possibilities for improving intelligent performances of front-view perception, panoramic visual perception, fully automatic driving, multi-sensor fusion, multimodal perception, and positioning decision-making.

In the meantime, the chip developer launched the smart automobile solution named Horizon Matrix SuperDrive that integrates full-scenario driving automation, in-car human-machine interaction, and the connection between the spaces inside and outside car. Riding on the Journey 5-based computing platform, the solution combines up to 47 sensors and can meet the automotive intelligence demands in scenarios like highways, urban areas, car parking, and human-machine interaction.
