Single-package design will deliver
industry’s leanest, most performance-power efficient SoC for fully
autonomous vehicles.
NEWS HIGHLIGHTS
- Mobileye introduces EyeQ® Ultra™ – a single package AV-on-chip
super-computer that is purpose-built for end-to-end autonomous
driving.
- Proven Mobileye EyeQ® architecture underpins EyeQ Ultra,
maximizing performance and efficiency at 176 TOPS (tera operations
per second).
- First silicon for the EyeQ Ultra is expected in late 2023 with
full automotive-grade production in 2025.
- Mobileye also introduces the next-generation EyeQ
system-on-chip (SoC) for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS):
EyeQ6L and EyeQ6H.
Mobileye today introduced the EyeQ® Ultra™, the company’s most
advanced, highest performing system-on-chip (SoC) purpose-built for
autonomous driving. As unveiled during CES 2022, EyeQ Ultra
maximizes both effectiveness and efficiency at only 176 TOPS,
making it the industry’s leanest autonomous vehicle (AV) chip. This
efficiently designed SoC builds on seven generations of proven EyeQ
architecture to deliver exactly the power and performance needed
for AVs, which are all but certain to be all-electric vehicles.

First silicon for the EyeQ Ultra SoC is expected at the end of
2023, with full automotive-grade production in 2025.
“Consumer AV is the end game for the industry,” said Prof. Amnon
Shashua, Mobileye president and chief executive officer. “By
developing the entire self-driving solution – from hardware and
software to mapping and service models – Mobileye has a unique
perspective into the exact requirements for the self-driving system
that enables us to reach the performance-and-cost optimization that
will make consumer AVs a reality.”

Mobileye designed the EyeQ Ultra after having first built an AV
to understand exactly what a self-driving vehicle needs to operate
at a very high meantime between failures. This approach enables the
optimum balance of performance across different accelerators and
general-purpose processors in an extremely efficient
power-performance envelope.
Delivering Unmatched Cost-to-Performance
Marking a leap in the evolution of the EyeQ family of SoCs, EyeQ
Ultra packs the performance of 10 EyeQ5s in a single package.
Leveraging 5 nanometer process technology, EyeQ Ultra can handle
all the needs and applications of Level 4 (L4) autonomous driving
without the power consumption and costs related to integrating
multiple SoCs together. Like its EyeQ predecessors, EyeQ Ultra has
been engineered in tandem with Mobileye software, enabling extreme
power efficiency with zero performance sacrifices.
EyeQ Ultra utilizes an array of four classes of proprietary
accelerators, each built for a specific task. These accelerators
are paired with additional CPU cores, ISPs and GPUs in a highly
efficient solution capable of processing input from two sensing
subsystems – one camera-only system and the other radar and lidar
combined – as well as the vehicle’s central computing system, the
high-definition map and driving policy software. At a mere 176
TOPS, the EyeQ Ultra is much more efficient than other AV
solutions, delivering the necessary performance and price-point
required for consumer-level AVs.
By optimizing for efficiency, EyeQ Ultra unlocks the AV
potential for safer roads and reduced congestion for consumers.
Evolution of the EyeQ Architecture
The introduction of EyeQ Ultra comes at the same time as two new
EyeQ SoCs for ADAS – the EyeQ6L and EyeQ6H – and follows the
shipment of Mobileye’s 100 millionth EyeQ SoC late last year. First
introduced in 2004, Mobileye’s EyeQ transformed the ADAS market by
proving that cost-effective camera sensors processed by Mobileye’s
purpose-built technology were capable of preventing and mitigating
collisions. The innovation of EyeQ helped make roadway safety
technology more accessible, bringing features including
forward-collision warning, lane departure warning and blind spot
detection to millions of drivers around the world.
Mobileye’s proven EyeQ architecture lays the foundation for EyeQ
Ultra. Designed to make consumer AVs accessible, EyeQ Ultra fills a
void in the automotive market as the EyeQ family of SoCs has done
before it. As an extension of the EyeQ family, EyeQ Ultra will also
be informed by Mobileye’s Road Experience Management™ (REM) mapping
technology. Gathered via millions of vehicles on the road already
equipped with Mobileye, REM captures packages of road data to
create the Mobileye Roadbook™, which is accessed via the cloud to
provide, in real time, up-to-date information on the drivable paths
ahead.
Two New EyeQ SoCs for Next-Generation ADAS
The EyeQ6L will be the successor to the EyeQ4 SoC in a package
that is just 55 percent the size of the EyeQ4. This one-box
windshield solution delivers more deep-learning TOPS at ultra-low
power for highly efficient entry and premium (L2) ADAS. It began
sampling last year and is due to reach start of production by the
middle of 2023.
The EyeQ6H will support premium ADAS or partial AV capabilities
with full surround. It is equivalent to two EyeQ5 SoCs in terms of
computing power but more importantly supports visualization and
performs better under heavy artificial intelligence workloads. This
centralized solution will provide all ADAS L2+ functionalities,
multi-camera processing (including parking cameras), and will host
third-party apps such as parking visualization and driver
monitoring. This most advanced ADAS SoC in the EyeQ family will
begin sampling this year and is due to begin production by the end
of 2024.
Both EyeQ6 SoCs will be manufactured on 7nm process
technology.
More Context
As Mobileye continues to execute its plan to enable autonomous
driving, the versatility and scalability of the company’s portfolio
comes into view. Mobileye recently shipped its 100 millionth EyeQ
SoC, unveiled its production robotaxi, and scaled its autonomous
vehicle testing across multiple cities around the world including
in the U.S., Europe and Asia.
