Wayve.ai develops self-driving technology known as AV2.0, which focuses on creating a smarter and safer approach to autonomous vehicles. Their technology uses embodied AI software, allowing vehicles to learn from their experiences and adapt to different environments without needing detailed programming. This method is different from traditional self-driving technologies that often rely on expensive hardware and pre-mapped data. Instead, Wayve.ai employs end-to-end deep learning, making their solution more cost-effective for automakers. The company targets automakers and fleet operators, providing them with adaptable and affordable solutions for driving automation. Wayve.ai aims to enhance mobility by partnering with companies like Ocado Group and Asda to test their technology in real-world delivery scenarios.
