SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ambarella, Inc.<\/u><\/a> (NASDAQ: AMBA), an AI vision silicon company, and KeepTruckin<\/u><\/a>, the leader in fleet management technology, today announced that KeepTruckin selected Ambarella\u2019s CV22 CVflow\u00ae edge AI vision system on chip (SoC) for its new AI Dashcam. This latest AI Dashcam, also announced today<\/a>, uses a single CV22 SoC to simultaneously provide AI and image processing for its dual-camera system, which integrates one camera for the front advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) with incident recording, and a second RGB-IR camera for the driver-monitoring system (DMS) with driver recording. Additionally, with Ambarella\u2019s industry-leading edge AI processing performance-per-watt, the CV22 enables the AI Dashcam to run KeepTruckin\u2019s proprietary sophisticated and accurate AI algorithms for real-time high-risk behavior detection and active warnings directly on the small form factor device, with minimal heat dissipation.<\/p>\n

\u201cKeepTruckin\u2019s selection of Ambarella SoCs for its new AI Dashcam gives it a powerful, cost-effective and efficient platform on which to build,\u201d said Ian Riches, VP Automotive Practice and Director at Strategy Analytics. \u201cAmbarella\u2019s ecosystem gives it the tools required to develop tailored AI solutions that will be of benefit to its fleet customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Front ADAS features enabled by the CV22 include warnings for close following, lane departures, forward collisions, speeding and traffic violations. Using the same SoC, running multiple simultaneous neural network models, the in-cabin camera\u2019s DMS capabilities include monitoring for driver fatigue, distraction and policy violations, such as contextual cell phone use or seatbelt monitoring, in combination with data from the front camera.<\/p>\n

\u201cKeepTruckin\u2019s AI Dashcam leverages Ambarella\u2019s industry-leading edge AI and vision processing performance to deliver advanced AI-based features that detect high-risk behavior with outstanding accuracy and efficiency,\u201d said Jai Ranganathan, SVP Product, KeepTruckin. \u201cOur continued fleet management innovation is enabled by Ambarella\u2019s scalable range of CVflow AI vision SoCs, which are all supported by a common, robust SDK, enabling a platform approach to our product development.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMaximizing fleet safety and productivity is one of the keys to a successful, growing global economy,\u201d said Fermi Wang, President and CEO of Ambarella. \u201cBy partnering with KeepTruckin to add more intelligence into commercial vehicles, we can help these businesses prevent accidents, protect drivers and lower operating costs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AI Dashcam is connected to the KeepTruckin Vehicle Gateway, which uploads the pre-analyzed data, video and still images to KeepTruckin\u2019s cloud-based fleet management software in real-time. The CV22 SoC integrates Ambarella\u2019s proven image signal processor, which provides high quality, 1440p resolution HDR videos across all lighting conditions, while utilizing its on-chip H.264\/H.265 encoding to reduce transmission bandwidth and storage costs. KeepTruckin can easily upload additional features to the CV22 over time, via over-the-air software updates, to deliver incremental value to clients that invest in the platform. Moreover, KeepTruckin\u2019s model training becomes increasingly more precise due to its in-house safety team assessing quality in real-time, adding additional risk context and providing input that makes model training and development cycles shorter.<\/p>\n

Ambarella\u2019s CVflow AI architecture is both fully programmable and highly efficient, providing significant computer vision performance with very low power consumption, which increases reliability and efficiency to run more models in parallel leading to greater detection and visibility all around. Additionally, its complete set of CV tools helps customers like KeepTruckin port their own neural networks and includes support for industry-standard machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch\u2122, ONNX\u2122, Caffe\u2122 and TensorFlow\u2122.<\/p>\n

Other key features of Ambarella\u2019s CV22 SoC enabling the high performance of KeepTruckin\u2019s latest AI Dashcam include:<\/p>\n
