"With the introduction of HuginCore, its own computing system, the Swedish car manufactureris marking the transition to fully software-defined vehicles. The development took five years and an investment of around €26 million in a 22,000-square-meter software test center in Gothenburg. Volvo is naming its core computing system for the first time. HuginCore, named after the raven from Norse mythology, encompasses the electrical architecture, the central computer, the zone controllers, and the software that controls the EX60."
"The hardware consists of NVIDIA's DRIVE AGX Orin system-on-a-chip with 254 TOPS (trillion operations per second) running on the DriveOS operating system, supplemented by Qualcomm's next-generation Snapdragon Cockpit Platform for infotainment. "HuginCore, our state-of-the-art system of hardware and software, combines our in-house developed technology with the best services and technologies from tech leaders such as Google, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm Technologies," says Anders Bell, Chief Engineering & Technology Officer at Volvo."
Volvo presented the EX60, the first fully electric car on the SPA3 platform, and introduced HuginCore as its core computing system. HuginCore includes the electrical architecture, a central computer, zone controllers, and the controlling software for the EX60. The hardware uses NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin (254 TOPS) on DriveOS and a Qualcomm Snapdragon Cockpit Platform for infotainment. Development required five years and about €26 million invested in a 22,000-square-meter software test center in Gothenburg. Zone controllers replace traditional ECUs and enable Volvo to integrate supplier software across the vehicle, reversing the conventional tier-1 model.
