By virtue of their resources and advantages in the industry, Black Sesame and MAXIEYE aim to build advanced autonomous driving products based on a strong computing platform and multi-sensor fusion. They will also co-develop mainstream all-speed integrated architecture solutions, serving the industry with high-quality and localized products.

The partners said the next-generation advanced intelligent driving platformed product solution would be released in 2022. With a high-performance, centralized domain controller, the solution will cover high and low-speed scenarios, realizing L2++ mobile and parking intelligence.  

As one of the leading companies in the automotive chip department, Black Sesame Technologies’ Huashan series chips and Shanhai AI development platform served many companies in the auto industry. 

The Shanhai AI platform consists of over 50 referencing AI model interchanging cases library, lowering the algorithm development requirement for clients. Its data closed-loop system can ensure the security of data. 

On the other hand, MAXIEYE holds full-stack R&D capabilities throughout the entire intelligent driving core technical chain, including perception, integration, and planning/control. The company’s technologies have been deployed to hundreds of thousands of commercial vehicles. 

As to the passenger vehicle sector, the company has mass-produced an affordable and efficient intelligent cruise control system, the MAXIPILOT, which can handle various complex driving scenarios autonomously during a 50 km road test.
