LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Jan 6, 2014) - CES -- NVIDIA's new Tegra® K1 mobile processor will help self-driving cars advance from the realm of research into the mass market with its automotive-grade version of the same GPU that powers the world's 10 most energy-efficient supercomputers.
The first mobile processor to bring advanced computational capabilities to the car, the NVIDIA® Tegra K1 runs a variety of auto applications that had previously not been possible with such low power consumption.

The K1 has 192 graphics cores, or calculating engines, and four ARM cores. In addition, Nvidia says the chip runs Unreal Engine 4, a popular programming technology from Epic Games that is used in many PC games.

Boil it all down, and what can we expect? The images on mobile devices–particularly Android powered smartphones and tablets–are going to look a lot more engaging. Huang said the chip gives you “the horsepower of a gaming console in the palm of your hand.”
