Embark Universal Interface Accelerates Integration of Self-Driving Technology Across Major Truck OEM Platforms

摘要

Embark, a maker of autonomous technology for the trucking industry, has launched the Embark Universal Interface (EUI), a set of standardized self-driving components and the flexible interfaces necessary for major truck OEMs to more easily and robustly integrate Embark's autonomous technology onto their vehicle platforms. The company says their EUI program sets them apart as the first autonomous developer to pursue integration with all four major US OEMs. By focusing on the intersection of four platform specifications, instead of designing to one OEM platform, Embark says it is building the industry's first universal system that is intentionally designed to integrate into any platform. Embark has designed its system from the beginning to work across platforms, a decision that has required a large upfront investment and attention to cross-platform trade-offs.
