Qualcomm has shown the Ride Flex platform during this CES 2023a platform based on the Snapdragon Ride Flex SoC that will allow, thanks to a careful development of its QoS functions, to have a great integration in the vehicle that will allow manufacturers simplify your infotainment systems, as well as the rest of the vehicle’s advanced features.
The Snapdragon Ride Flex SoC has support for mixed criticality workloads, so that from the same chip you can control the instrument panel, the infotainment system, and driver assistance systems (ADAS) that will improve vehicle safety.
These chips also have a pre-integration with the Snapdragon Ride Vision stack, also co-designed for the machine vision, artificial intelligence, and high energy efficiencyall this necessary for systems of autonomous driving levels 1 to 4among others.
The Snapdragon Ride Flex SoCs are already in the sample phase, and are expected to begin mass production by 2024, so we will still have to wait a few years to see how these chips reach vehicles that we can buy on the marketvehicles that are likely to be electric, if not autonomous.
