According to foreign media reports, Mobileye, the world's largest supplier of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), said that after the expiration of the current contract, Tesla's Autopilot autopilot system will no longer provide technical support.
Mobileye was founded in 1999 by the famous Israeli computer vision scientist Ziv Aviram and Professor Emnon of the Department of Computer Science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Co-founded by Amnon Shashua and others, is a well-known Israeli Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) manufacturer that provides algorithms and computer chips that can predict potential collisions based on images (with cameras on the car).
The company said in a statement today: "Mobileye's cooperation with Tesla will not extend to new products after EyeQ3 driver assistance system. We will continue to support and maintain Tesla's current Autopilot product plan, including security. Several features of the upgrade, but not hardware upgrades."
Mobileye did not disclose when the current contract with Tesla will end, but Mobileye will release the new generation of Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) EyeQ4 in 2018.
Mobileye said that the company will focus on the development of fully automated driving systems in the future. Earlier this month, Mobileye announced that it will work with BMW and Intel to achieve mass production of highly self-driving vehicles and fully automated vehicles in 2021.
Due to the frequent accidents of Tesla vehicles in the near future, Mobileye Chief Technology Officer Amnon Shashua said that the technique of avoiding collisions does not solve the side collision well. This statement raised speculation about the company's partnership with Tesla.
Amnon Shashua said: In a collaboration, I need to know how the other party uses my technology, rather than simply providing technology to it. The technologist declined to disclose the company's interest in working with Tesla.
When asked if the company might cooperate with Tesla again, Amnon Shashua said that there is no eternal friend, no eternal enemy, only eternal interests. If the situation changes in the future, we will make corresponding changes.
Currently, Tesla's Autopilot autopilot system uses Mobileye's advanced driver assistance system. But recently, a Tesla Model S electric car had a fatal crash when using the Autopilot autopilot function. To this end, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is investigating Tesla.
