[{"type":"text","content":"\nPowerful computer vision tech and natural language models turn industry’s leading dataset into AV training gold mine.\n\n LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nWhat’s New: Mobileye is sitting on a virtual treasure trove of driving data – some 200 petabytes worth. When combined with Mobileye’s state-of-the-art computer vision technology and extremely capable natural language understanding (NLU) models, the dataset can deliver thousands of results within seconds, even for incidents that fall into the “long tail” of rare conditions and scenarios. This helps the AV and state-of-the-art computer vision system handle edge cases and thereby achieve the very high mean time between failure (MTBF) rate targeted for self-driving vehicles.\nThis press release features multimedia.

An example would be a tractor covered in snow, as shown here. Mobileye’s state-of-the-art computer vision coupled with extremely capable natural language models allows for hard mining of Mobileye’s 200 petabytes of data, delivering thousands of results within seconds, even for extremely rare conditions and scenarios.

Mobileye has spent 25 years collecting and analyzing what we believe to be the industry’s leading database of real-world and simulated driving experience, setting Mobileye apart by enabling highly capable AV solutions that meet the high bar for mean time between failure.”\n― Prof. Amnon Shashua, Mobileye president and chief executive officer\n\nHow It Works: Mobileye’s database – believed to be the world’s largest automotive dataset – comprises more than 200 petabytes of driving footage, equivalent to 16 million 1-minute driving clips from 25 years of real-world driving. Those 200 petabytes are stored between Amazon Web Services (AWS) and on-premise systems. The sheer size of Mobileye’s dataset makes the company one of AWS’s largest customers by volume stored globally.\n\nLarge-scale data labeling is at the heart of building powerful computer vision engines needed for autonomo...
