Leapmotor and Ambarella, Inc. recently signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The two companies will focus on creating a first-class intelligent driving experience for the global new energy vehicle market As part of this cooperation agreement, Leapmotor committed to creating an advanced intelligent driving solution based on Ambarella?s powerful CV3-AD family of automotive AI domain controller systems-on-chip (SoCs). Leapmotor will work to achieve the technical verification and installation of the CV3-AD SoCs on new passenger-vehicle models, further providing users with an affordable and superior intelligent electric vehicle.

Ambarella?s CV3-AD is a family of scalable, high-performance and low-power AI domain control SoCs based on a 5nm automotive-grade process technology. Additionally, they comply with ASIL-B/D functional safety standards. Not only do these SoCs support a wide variety of centrally processed environmental sensing suites, but they also integrate a high-quality image signal processor for ultra-low latency, low noise and high dynamic range images in both computer vision and human viewing.

The CV3-AD SoC family also provides hardware AI acceleration and centralized fusion of raw LiDAR and millimeter-wave radar data, while leaving ample AI and compute performance for additional algorithm design and deployment. Working closely with the Ambarella team, Leapmotor confirmed the specifications, performance and reliability of the CV3-AD SoCs, and highly affirmed Ambarella?s exceptional support and cooperation. In the future, Leapmotor and Ambarella plan to continue exploring more possibilities for intelligent driving technology cooperation, including jointly addressing challenges, actively expanding the global market, and bringing higher-value intelligent driving solutions to global users.
