Nvidia also offered a peek into its own self-driving car efforts dubbed BB8, showing a demo at CES 2017.
The Nvidia BB8 features the Drive PX 2 A.I. self-driving computer and can understand instructions and interact with the driver in "natural spoken language." The car taps Nvidia's DriveWorks software and runs a deep neural network dubbed PilotNet, which allows for a safe self-driving performance in a dynamic and complex environment.
