The Use of GPU
Compute in Automotive

The GPU is a flexible and programmable parallel accelerator that can be used for a diverse array of tasks. The primary task of the GPU in the vehicle is graphics and delivering a great in-car multimedia experience. But a GPU can also be used effectively in a vehicle’s ADAS to process general purpose automotive compute tasks. This white paper sets out the benefits of using the GPU for compute workloads and how Imagination’s GPUs are designed to process these tasks efficiently.
