Ideal self-developed intelligent driving chip on board for road testing, some computing performance exceeds NVIDIA Thor-U.

The self-developed intelligent driving chip M100 by Ideal Car returned samples in the first quarter of this year, successfully passing the key stage before mass production. Subsequently, M100 completed function testing and performance testing within two weeks, followed by stress testing by Ideal R&D personnel. Currently, M100 has been tested on the road in small batches. It is understood that M100 exhibits specific performance characteristics when handling different types of computing tasks: for example, when running calculations for large language models, the effective computing power provided by one M100 is roughly equivalent to that of two NVIDIA Thor-U; while for processing traditional visual tasks related to convolutional neural networks, the effective computing power provided by one M100 can be compared to that of three NVIDIA Thor-U.
