Rivian thrives on freedom, with ulicon, lidar, and concept at Robotaxis

Rivian detailed on Thursday how it likes to create its own self-driving cars – a new effort that includes the creation of new tools, including siicnor or an entry point in SEO RJ Scarder.

Announcements at the “Norcemm Freetom & AI Day” in Palo Alto, California, New Light on the Development of Very Old Technology Partners like Tesla, Ford, General Motors, as well as car manufacturers from Europe and China.

Rivian said it will expand the free version of its driver software to “more than 3.5 million roads across the USA and Canada” and will later expand to more underground highways (with more visible road lines). Availability that can be found in the second generation of companies and suvs. It calls the possibility of “hands-free” and will be launched in early 2026. Rivian says it will pay a one-time fee of $ 2,500 or $ 499 per month.

“What’s the best way to get into a car at your house, plug it in, and the car will take you there,” Scardenta said.

After all, Rivian’s design allows drivers to take their eyes off the road. “This gives you your time back. You can be on your phone, or reading a book, without having to do any work.”

Rivian’s mountain climbing software doesn’t stop there; The developer posted plans on Thursday to take his development all the way to the point where:

Later, scarmer said that Rivian will look to compete with the likes of Waymo. “Although our primary focus will be on vehicles at risk, which today represent the largest number of miles driven in the United States, this also allows us to seek opportunities to drive higher,” he said.

To help achieve these lofty goals, Rivian has been building a “super driver” (a fancy idea? The company also revealed a 5nm processor, which it says will be built in collaboration with Tsmc.

This kind of power is what Rivian says about its “autonomous home computer,” or acm3. This new computer can process 5 billion pix per second and will begin to appear on the R2 Sun-REV of R2 at the end of 2026.

Rivian will marry the acm3 with an intar sensor on top of the pilot (from an unknown supplier) to provide “a three-dimensional view that will help you with the driving time.”

“We expect that in the near future this will be the most powerful type of sensors and a group of” Vice President of Electronics North America Rajagopan said at the event.

The R2 is set to start shipping in the first half of 2026, meaning the SUV range does not have an acm3 or sensor. This means early R2 species without acm3 and lidAr tools will be heavily targeted for manual handling. Anyone who expects to be alert or, after all, driving without being cut off in a Rivian needs a car with an intar sensor.

“Adding the lidor makes a great combination. It provides a complete view of the 3D car in motion,” the Vice President of AI “The goal of dressing well is not just a part of humanity, it’s a lot of it.”
