Oxbotica and Alphabet Inc.'s Google Cloud announced a partnership to hasten the distribution of the autonomous software platform of the British self-driving software firm to clients worldwide.
As per the firms, Oxbotica will employ Google Cloud infrastructure to develop "scalable, safe, and dependable" autonomous driving solutions for its clients in public transportation, agricultural, light industrial, and last-mile logistics.
Oxbotica will employ Google Cloud technologies to create digital twins to verify its platform and develop and test its self-driving technology.
To ensure the secure application of self-driving technology, Oxbotica will also draw on the cyber-security expertise of Google Cloud.
For the mass production of driverless vehicles, cloud infrastructure is viewed as essential.
Another British self-driving firm, Wayve, processes enormous volumes of data as it creates machine learning-based models for autonomous vehicles using supercomputer infrastructure created by Microsoft, one of its investors.
Investors continue to support firms that focus on simpler self-driving vehicle solutions far away from pedestrians and other vehicles run by unpredictable humans. Creating completely self-driving vehicles that can go everywhere has proven harder and more expensive than predicted.
In order to hasten the implementation of AVs in places like heavy industry, ports, and airports, Oxbotica announced in January that it had raised $140 million from investors.
