DriveCore was designed as a complete technology platform, consisting of the hardware, vehicle middleware and PC-based software tools needed to develop machine learning algorithms for the autonomous driving applications.

The Studio cloud-based development environment enables automakers to create and support an ecosystem of algorithm developers through an open framework using sensor based artificial intelligence. It allows easy integration of third party algorithms and access to real life sensor data complemented by simulation, validation and benchmarking for perception algorithms for object detection and feature based path planning.

"Meeting the computing demands of Level 3-plus autonomous driving solutions will require collaboration from multiple companies offering specific expertise," said Markus Schupfner, Visteon senior vice president and chief technology officer.
