NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang unveiled Xavier during the GPU Technology Conference in Europe. Xavier will be NVIDIA's AI-Supercomputer in self-driving cars. Xavier is a complete system-on-chip (SoC), using Nvidia's upcoming GPU architecture known as Volta, a custom 8 core CPU architecture, and a new computer vision accelerator. Xavier will be available during the fourth quarter of 2017 to automakers, tier 1 suppliers, startups and research institutions who are developing self-driving cars. Since autonomous driving is an incredibly compute-intense process, Xavier is designed to be compliant with critical automotive standards, such as the ISO 26262 functional safety specification. The Tegra K1 powered NVidia Shield tablet is now official and will be priced competitively (starts at $299) and will have an optional wireless controller. The Shield tablet will be NVidia's opportunity to showcase its most powerful mobile procesor, the Tegra K1. Earlier today, NVidia announced that they will be rolling out a firmware update for their popular Android-based gaming console which brings all the good stuff that Android KitKat has to offer, as well as a new feature called Remote GameStream.
