The invention provides a vehicle AI computing system (VACS) that supports autonomous driving through an Onboard Unit (OBU) for vehicle-based computing and distributed computing based on vehicle-road-cloud. The vehicle-based computing can effectively complete various computational tasks by using onboard computing resources. The distributed computing allows the vehicle to work in collaboration with roadside units (RSUs) and/or the cloud to effectively complete various computational tasks. The VACS features an OBU with a sensing module, a communication module, and a data processing module that integrates data from vehicle sensors, RSUs, and the cloud. The OBU also includes a vehicle control module that helps control the vehicle based on the data of RSU and cloud. The VACS leverages high-performance computation resources to implement end-to-end driving tasks including sensing, prediction, planning and decision-making, and control. The VACS features large-scale parallel data processing by using GPU either onboard or based on vehicle-road-cloud.
