While creating self-driving car systems, it’s natural that different companies might independently arrive at similar methods or results — but the similarities in a recent “first of its kind” Nvidia proposal to work done by Mobileye two years ago were just too much for the latter company’s CEO to take politely.

After a self-driving Uber crashed and killed a woman walking her bike across a Tempe, Arizona, road last week, the technology behind autonomous vehicles has been questioned and scrutinized.
Intel, the company behind the driver-assistance software Mobileye — which is used in certain autonomous cars, like Waymo, but not in Uber — took the footage Tempe police released from the crash and ran their software through the fatal incident.
Mobileye CEO and CFO Amnon Shashua wrote in a editorial Monday that “despite the suboptimal conditions, where much of the high dynamic range data that would be present in the actual scene was likely lost, clear detection was achieved approximately one second before impact.” Read more…
