South Korean car maker Hyundai is working with Nvidia to accelerate the development of AI technologies to drive the future of mobility.

In the AI era, Hyundai is driving innovation through AI integration, positioning itself at the forefront of smart mobility. The group operates a variety of AI initiatives and, through this partnership, aims to enhance the application of intelligence to its core mobility products, such as software-defined vehicles and robotics, and across its business operations.

“Hyundai is exploring innovative approaches with AI technologies in various fields such as robotics, autonomous driving and smart factory,” said Heung-Soo Kim, executive vice president at Hyundai. “This partnership is set to accelerate our progress, positioning the group as a frontrunner in driving AI-empowered mobility innovation.”

Hyundai will harness Nvidia accelerated computing and AI enterprise software to help manage the massive amounts of data required to develop and train its AI models safely for various applications.

The group will also use the Nvidia Omniverse platform to develop physical AI and digital-twin applications to simulate its factories, helping improve manufacturing efficiencies and quality, and streamline costs. In addition, the group will use the Nvidia Isaac robot development platform to develop and safely deploy AI robots.

Both parties will work closely to create virtual simulation environments for safe and reliable autonomous driving technology and robotics systems.

“Accelerated computing, generative AI and Omniverse are unlocking a new era of mobility,” said Rishi Dhall, vice president of automotive at Nvidia (www.nvidia.com). “This partnership will drive the creation of safer, more intelligent vehicles, supercharge manufacturing with greater efficiency and quality, and deploy cutting-edge robotics to help build a smarter, more connected digital workplace.”

With about 250,000 employees worldwide, the group’s mobility brands include Hyundai, Kia and Genesis. More information about Hyundai can be found at www.hyundaimotorgroup.com.
