Abstract: An autonomous vehicle can include a compute controller that can efficiently perform autonomous driving operations. An apparatus for autonomous vehicle operation comprises an electrical board that includes a plurality of semiconductor devices; a first switch device that is electrically coupled to the plurality of semiconductor devices via a first communication bus of the electrical board; and a second switch device that is electrically coupled to the plurality of semiconductor devices via a second communication bus of the electrical board, where the second switch device is configured to route data between any two or more of the plurality of semiconductor devices using the second communication bus, and where a first data carrying capacity of the first communication bus is independent of a second data carrying capacity of the second communication bus.

Abstract: Systems and methods for deployment on an autonomous vehicle are provided. In some example embodiments, the system includes a first compute unit and a second compute unit, in which the first compute unit is configured to receive first information of the vehicle and an environment of the vehicle, generate a first control command based on the first information, and transmit the first control command to a controller of the vehicle to effectuate an autonomous operation of the vehicle; and the second compute unit is configured to receive second information of the vehicle and the environment of the vehicle, generate a second control command based on the second information, and only when a fault or failure of the first compute unit is detected, transmits the second control command to the controller of the vehicle to effectuate the autonomous operation of the vehicle.
