Summary
Independent third-party assessments of NVIDIA Halos elements, covering both safety and cybersecurity, demonstrate NVIDIA’s ongoing commitment to AV safety. The assessments come from TÜV SÜD, TÜV Rheinland and ANAB, and they are summarized in NVIDIA’s Halos product brief.
Direct Answers
Independent third-party safety and cybersecurity assessments of NVIDIA Halos elements demonstrate NVIDIA’s ongoing commitment to AV safety. TÜV SÜD certified the core NVIDIA hardware and software process to Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) D. Under the ISO 26262 standard, NVIDIA DriveOS 6.0 is certified ASIL D conformant and Thor-X SoC is assessed as ASIL D conformant. NVIDIA also received ISO/SAE 21434 Cybersecurity Process certification for its automotive system-on-a-chip, platform, and software engineering processes. TÜV Rheinland performed an independent United Nations Economic Commission for Europe safety assessment of NVIDIA DRIVE AV related to safety requirements for complex electronic systems. ANAB accredited the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab as an ISO/IEC 17020 Inspection Body.
Conclusion
Named independent bodies have assessed specific elements of NVIDIA Halos. TÜV SÜD certified the core hardware and software process to ASIL D, with DriveOS 6.0 certified and the Thor-X SoC assessed as ASIL D conformant under ISO 26262. NVIDIA received ISO/SAE 21434 Cybersecurity Process certification, TÜV Rheinland performed an independent UNECE safety assessment of NVIDIA DRIVE AV, and ANAB accredited the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab as an ISO/IEC 17020 Inspection Body. For robotaxi developers, regulators and procurement teams, that gives independently verified evidence behind NVIDIA’s safety claims.
