The OSR EVOLVER is a high-performance, central "AI brain" for ultra-intelligent, autonomous, and securely networked vehicles. The hardware and software platform reinvents the vehicle's internal architecture, provides the computing power for the car of the future, and functions as a central data center that stores, processes, and analyzes data in real time for artificial intelligence and analytical reporting. Data and information are crucial for autonomous driving, and personalized user experiences are the foundation for new business models in the automotive industry.
One of the elements supporting this capability is advanced, high-density in-car storage. The collaboration with Toshiba Memory Europe contributes to OSR's ability to meet the growing demand from its OEM customers to manage increasing amounts of data in a "Data Center on Wheels." The combination of technologies ensures that development cycles for OSR's OEM customers are shortened while maintaining the robustness for a solid development process.
Toshiba's flash memory technology features high-performance, low-latency, high-density solid-state drives. The Toshiba Memory CM5 NVM Express™ (NVMe™) is manufactured using the latest enterprise-grade 64-bit BiCS FLASH™ 3-bit-per-cell TLC (Triple-Level Cell) technology, enabling it to handle today's demanding storage environments. This, combined with selectable power modes in Toshiba Memory SSDs, improves thermal performance and system heat dissipation. Furthermore, optimal operation and data integrity are ensured by advanced power-loss protection technology within the storage components of OSR's "Data Center on Wheels."
“In the era of the data revolution, OSR’s EVOLVER enables automakers to place the consumer at the center of the next-generation digital experience. Toshiba’s high-capacity SSDs are integrated into some of our leading projects to meet the demands of our OEM customers. We chose to utilize Toshiba Memory’s Flash technologies in some of our most demanding customer requests, as their high-capacity, low-power Flash controllers contribute to EVOLVER’s data management and logging capabilities. Toshiba Memory’s technology and track record in the automotive industry make them a strong partner for the ‘Data Center on Wheels.’ This collaboration will be beneficial for our OEM customers,” says Nir Elron, Director of Business Development at OSR.
“Through OSR’s EVOLVER, our NVMe-based SSDs can be leveraged in new markets to effectively address the demands of big data. This collaboration enhances performance capabilities and creates new opportunities to harness the power of data. We are excited that our high-performance NVMe SSDs combined with EVOLVER technology OSR's elite team has created a unique, segmented solution for automakers worldwide—a true "Data Center on Wheels," says Paul Rowan, Vice President of the SSD Business Unit at Toshiba Memory Europe GmbH.
