Our ambition has always been to become the equivalent of Microsoft and Intel for the robotics and intelligent vehicle era. Building a car brand allows you to make one product appealing to consumers, but providing an open computing platform enables hundreds of car brands to improve their intelligence. Just as Intel and Windows helped usher all of humanity into personal computing and empowered workers globally, we want to provide the foundational infrastructure that elevates the entire transportation civilization.
