Renesas Electronics Unveils the Renesas autonomy™, Open, Innovative and Trusted Platform to Further Extend its Commitment to ADAS and Automated Driving

- Delivers Total End-to End Solution that Scales from Cloud to Sensing and Vehicle Control

- The First Rollout of Renesas autonomy Product, the R-Car V3M System-On-Chip, Provides Cutting Edge Capabilities for Smart Cameras Targeting NCAP Regulations

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — April 10, 2017 — Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the launch of Renesas autonomy™, a new advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving platform. As the first rollout under its groundbreaking Renesas autonomy Platform, Renesas released the R-Car V3M high-performance image recognition system-on-chip (SoC) optimized primarily for use in smart camera applications, as well as surround view systems or even lidars. The new R-Car V3M SoC complies with the ISO26262 functional safety standard, delivers low-power hardware acceleration for vision processing, and is equipped with a built-in image signal processor (ISP), freeing up board space and reducing system manufacturers’ system costs.

Renesas will exhibit its first Renesas autonomy demonstrator, developed based on the new R-Car V3M SoC, at DevCon Japan to be held in Tokyo Japan on April 11, 2017.

About the Renesas autonomy Platform

Vehicles in the autonomous driving era will be required to sense the environment, control the vehicle, and conduct synchronized communications with the cloud. A wide range of technologies is necessary to realize these functions and each technology needs to maintain high reliability to synchronize without any flaws. At the same time, these technologies are continuously advancing, which is why there is a growing demand for a total end-to-end solution.

Renesas launched the new "Renesas autonomy” platform, leveraging its long-standing experience and expertise in the automotive market as the leading automotive semiconductor supplier. Renesas autonomy is an open, innovative and trusted platform for ADAS and automated driving, consisting of Renesas’ sustainable and scalable SoC and microcontroller (MCU) roadmaps. Renesas is the only automotive semiconductor supplier in the industry to cover end-to-end solutions from secure cloud connectivity and sensing to vehicle control. Renesas’ groundbreaking platform further extends its commitment to ADAS and automated driving. The platform also gives system manufacturers access to Renesas’ expanding ecosystem of partners for ADAS and automated driving technologies, thereby improving development efficiency and speeding their time to market.

Key solutions of the Renesas autonomy Platform:

(1) Trusted scalable hardware lineup delivering a comprehensive portfolio covering high performance and low power

The Renesas autonomy Platform enables automotive system manufacturers to build a full range of ADAS and automated driving systems. System manufacturers can make the best use of the sustained, scalable roadmaps to develop solutions from entry to premium, re-use development efforts, and shorten time to market, benefiting from Renesas’ proven solutions and long-term commitment to the automotive market.

(2) Innovative accelerators and market-proven functional safety technologies

For the implementation of demanding algorithms, Renesas autonomy Platform provides system manufacturers the option to select the most suitable IP cores, including hardware accelerators, offering functional safety and flexibility within an architecture capable of the highest performance at the lowest power consumption. In addition, system manufacturers can leverage Renesas’ expertise in integrating different IPs and in low-power design to reduce their bill of materials (BOM).

Functional safety is essential in achieving automated driving. Renesas has provided functional safety to the market since the launch of its first automotive safety MCUs in 2008. To address the requirements for high-level functional safety for ADAS and automated driving applications, Renesas supports several ASIL levels with its latest generation high-performance SoC and MCU devices. In addition to ASIL-C support with the new R-Car V3M SoC, Renesas provides a wide range of ASIL-B SoCs (R-Car M3 and R-Car H3) and ASIL-D MCUs (RH850/P1X Series) that meet the requirements of the latest ADAS applications.

(3) Open development platform with access to complementary ecosystem partner technologies

Renesas has 195 key technology suppliers worldwide in its R-Car Consortium and is continuously adding partners from the ADAS and automated driving areas to support the Renesas autonomy Platform. The development platform is open, allowing system manufacturers to choose where to enter, either building directly on Renesas innovations or working with ecosystem partners. System manufacturers can choose to maximize the creation of value in-house, or significantly reduce their design efforts and shorten time to market by working with Renesas’ R-Car Consortium.

“ADAS and automated driving applications are driving the future of the automotive market. Renesas autonomy is a trusted, open and innovative platform that covers all needs from secure cloud connectivity, sensing, and cognitive over to vehicle control,” said Jean-Francois Chouteau, Vice President of Renesas Global ADAS Centre. “At Renesas, we want to give the automotive industry the power to control its own destiny. With the Renesas autonomy Platform, we give developers the promise: 'You decide what the future of driving will look like.'”
