Sanyan Technology reported on July 27 that on July 27, 2024, the "NIO IN 2024 Weilai Innovation Technology Day" with AI as the main theme was successfully held at the Shanghai World Expo Center.

Li Bin, founder, chairman and CEO of NIO, together with the heads of NIO's digital systems, product experience, smart driving, mobile phones and smart hardware, announced major technological achievements in many areas, including smart driving chips, vehicle-wide operating systems, smart systems, smart driving and panoramic connectivity.

The world’s first 5nm smart driving chip, NIO’s NX9031, was successfully taped out

At NIO IN 2024, NIO Innovation Technology Day, Li Bin, founder, chairman and CEO of NIO, announced the successful tape-out of the world's first 5nm smart driving chip, the Shenji NX9031.

As the industry's first high-end smart driving chip manufactured using 5nm automotive-grade technology, NIO's "Shenji NX9031" chip and underlying software have been independently designed. Shenji NX9031 has more than 50 billion transistors. Whether in terms of comprehensive capabilities or execution efficiency, a self-developed chip can achieve the performance of four industry flagship chips.

The vehicle-wide operating system "SkyOS · Tianshu" was officially released in full, achieving an industry breakthrough

At NIO IN, Li Bin also announced that SkyOS, the vehicle-wide operating system that NIO spent four years developing and invested more than 23,000 man-months to build for AI, has been officially released in full.

The automotive industry has entered the AI ​​era, and smart electric vehicles have evolved into AI entities, which require overall perception, thinking, and control execution capabilities. As an AI-oriented vehicle-wide operating system, SkyOS has seven major features: high bandwidth, low latency, high computing power and heterogeneous hardware, cross-domain integration, flexible and continuous evolution, high reliability, and information security.

SkyOS connects intelligent hardware, computing platforms, communications and energy systems at the bottom layer to achieve unified management and coordination of global applications such as vehicle connectivity, vehicle control, intelligent driving, digital cockpits, and mobile applications, building true global intelligence for the entire vehicle in the AI ​​era.

As the first global leading vehicle-wide operating system mastered by a Chinese automaker, SkyOS has achieved an industry breakthrough.

Since the brand was founded, NIO has always adhered to long-termism in the field of technological innovation. The full release of SkyOS Tianshu, the global operating system for the entire vehicle, and the successful tape-out of the intelligent driving chip "Shenji NX9031" show that NIO has built a key technology foundation for intelligent electric vehicles.

It has both "core" and "soul", achieving a close integration of hardware and software, computing power and algorithms, supporting NIO's smart electric vehicles to continuously create a more extreme user experience.

Banyan 3, NIO’s first intelligent system built on the underlying AI capabilities

The new Banyan 3 intelligent system built based on the core underlying capabilities of AI was released at this year's NIO IN.

Banyan 3's emotional intelligence, based on AI large model capabilities and native intelligent systems, creates a new NOMI GPT architecture to accelerate the evolution and growth of NOMI. At the same time, NIO is the first to introduce the NOMI Agents multi-agent architecture to reconstruct NOMI's cognitive and complex task processing capabilities, accelerating the evolution of the cockpit experience from "single-point function" to "active intelligence."

NIO SkyOS-C digital cockpit full-stack architecture and multiple AI models have been installed in the car, giving birth to new AI native applications and personalized services and ecosystems. NIO's digital cockpit has achieved integration with its own service capabilities, such as booking a designated driver and making an appointment for after-sales service through NOMI, which will be a unique capability and experience in the industry.

AI capability is the soul of intelligent chassis innovation. NIO AI intelligent chassis adopts a full-stack self-developed chassis architecture. Through the hardware foundation of heterogeneous computing power fusion, cross-domain fusion, and real-time data sharing, combined with the end-cloud integrated architecture and group intelligence, it is able to realize 4D full-domain comfort navigation and rear-seat premium mode on the Banyan 3 intelligent system, providing users with a higher quality full-time comfortable travel experience.

The first version of the new Banyan 3 intelligent system is expected to be released to users in late August.

China's first intelligent driving world model NWM

At this year's NIO IN, NIO also released China's first smart driving world model NWM (NIO World Model).

NWM is a multivariate autoregressive generative embodied driving model that can fully understand data, has long-term time series deduction and decision-making capabilities, and can deduce 216 possible scenarios within 100 milliseconds to find the optimal decision.

As a generative model, NWM can generate a 120-second video using a 3-second driving video as a prompt. NWM also has an inherent closed-loop simulation test capability, and has been fully tested and verified in complex interactive scenarios.

In addition, NIO's intelligent driving technology architecture NADArch2.0 was officially released at NIO IN 2024 NIO Innovation Technology Day.

NADArch2.0 has been upgraded to an end-to-end architecture that introduces a world model at the algorithm level, generating driving decisions directly from raw sensor data, reducing information loss in traditional solutions. Its prediction capabilities are stronger, making the intelligent driving experience safer and more humane.

NIO announced that the intelligent driving based on NADArch2.0 will be pushed to vehicles in phases in the second half of this year.

The new NIO Phone is launched, with zero ads and no pre-installed content.

The new NIO Phone was also launched at the "NIO IN 2024 NIO Technology Innovation Day". Depending on the configuration, the new NIO Phone is priced at: Performance Edition 6,499 yuan, Ultimate Edition 6,899 yuan, EPedition 7,499 yuan.

The new NIO Phone is equipped with the purest SkyUI. NIO insists on "zero system ads" and "zero commercial pre-installation" and greatly improves the smart experience. The NOMI GPT supports free dialogue in more than 60 question-and-answer scenarios including encyclopedias, common sense, historical events, etc.

The new custom car control button can directly access common functions, including quick start of the system or car control functions, and supports setting different functions according to the different distances between the phone and the car. Even the new smart car control can automatically identify the position inside and outside the car, and open common functions with one button. In the future, this button can also be upgraded to support 60+ car control functions.

NIO Link’s panoramic interconnection can realize functions such as super-sensing car keys, super-sensing parking, smart car search, enhanced sky window, NIO Link relay, etc. NIO Link’s on-board broadcast function can directly call the vehicle camera to create the fastest and most convenient mobile live broadcast room.

As a high-end flagship phone, the new NIO Phone is equipped with the third-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship processor, with up to 16GB+1T memory and storage options. It is equipped with a 6.82-inch 2K resolution screen customized by Samsung for NIO, a 510PPI 120Hz high refresh screen, and outstanding parameters.

In addition to being sold on the NIO App, the new NIO Phone will also be sold on external channels such as JD.com and TikTok for the first time.

This year's NIO IN is the second time that NIO has held an Innovation and Technology Day event.

In the past year, with the rapid development of AI technology, smart electric vehicles have also begun to benefit from the development of AI. At the first NIO IN in 2023, NIO proposed a 12-point full-stack technology layout for smart electric vehicles, and AI has become the core capability throughout NIO's full-stack technology.

At this year's NIO IN, NIO focused on showcasing a number of major research and development achievements in facial AI, which will play a huge role in NIO's development and improving user experience.
