One Stop Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: OSS), a leader in AI Transportable
solutions on the edge, has secured two new autonomous truck program
wins with Embark Trucks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EMBK), a leading developer
of autonomous technology for the trucking industry.
The two wins include one for OSS’ Centauri rugged PCIe storage
expansion system and another for OSS’ next-generation optimized
autonomous truck 3U SDS rugged accelerated computing server, 3U
SDS-AT.
The new wins involve equipping trucks from Embark’s test fleet
with the highest-performance ruggedized compute and transportable
storage capabilities. Embark is expected to be a top 10 account for
OSS starting this year.
OSS worked closely with Embark and other customers to define the
attributes and inform the design of the next-gen 3U SDS that would
make it ideal for the autonomous truck market. Leveraging Embark’s
industry experience and feedback, OSS included attributes such as
additional ruggedization and more efficient air cooling, system
monitoring and I/O—all elements critical to the commercial
operation of autonomous long-haul trucks.
The 3U SDS is powered by three of the most advanced NVIDIA® A100
Tensor Core GPUs, an AMD Epyc 7003 series processor and one of the
fastest Gen 4 NVMe flash storage products on the market today.
Embark is a market leader in the autonomous trucking space, and
focused on commercializing its self-driving software for
semi-trucks, Embark Driver. Autonomous trucks powered by Embark can
haul goods for a longer amount of uninterrupted time, create
greater efficiencies and significantly improve the economics of
shipping across the country, which are key benefits as the U.S.
grapples with a chronic truck driver shortage.
Autonomous driving capabilities can also improve safety and fuel
efficiency in the trucking industry. They can also reduce delivery
times by enabling trucks to travel across the U.S. in shorter
periods of time compared to human-operated trucks, which are
limited by hours-of-service regulations.
OSS provides the highest-performance solutions for the
autonomous truck market, allowing companies to focus on the
development of their autonomous driving software as well as
integration of hardware and sensor componentry. OSS is also working
closely with several companies towards developing high-volume
production solutions for the coming years.OSS’ products are
currently being utilized for four autonomous trucking components:
main compute server, expansion chassis and transportable storage
that are all located in the long-haul truck, and the second server
that is located in the trucking depot hub which can upload vast
amounts of data to the main system for further analysis.
“These additional wins reaffirm our belief that OSS is
delivering the best solutions for autonomous long-haul trucking on
the market today,” stated David Raun, OSS’ president and CEO. “This
third win for our 3U SDS platform demonstrates our expert ability
to ruggedize datacenter-class compute and storage solutions and
ensure the highest level of durability required by today’s
autonomous trucks. Our solutions also provide secure system
monitoring and control, ground-breaking cooling technologies, and
PCI Express scalability that supports a variety of trucks with
varying amounts of sensors.”
“In order to meet demanding fleet uptime requirements,
autonomous trucking demands ‘performance without compromise’ in
harsh environments,” added Raun. “This capability is enabled by a
strong partner like OSS who is committed to working hand in hand
with market leaders like Embark, where together we can produce
commercial grade solutions for scaling autonomous long-haul
trucking.”
Ben Stinnett, Head of Hardware of Embark, commented: “Embark is
commercializing autonomous trucks with an asset-light approach,
focusing exclusively on developing autonomous software and
partnering with industry-leading suppliers like OSS to integrate
the highest quality hardware into our technology stack. The levels
of performance and ruggedization of OSS AI Transportable products
have helped us significantly advance the capabilities of Embark
Driver. We value the flexibility and partnership with OSS, as we
pursue our mission to improve the safety, efficiency, and
sustainability of the trucking industry.”
The new 3U SDS-AT servers for Embark are scheduled to begin
shipping this quarter.About Centauri Portable Flash Storage
IntegrationCentauri is a PCIe Gen 4 NVMe ruggedized
storage system that offers high capacity in a compact,
hot-swappable, easily transportable canister that slides into a
flange mountable chassis.
Centauri can data log up to 320 terabytes in an eight-drive
canister. All eight drives can be removed simultaneously from the
saddle bag of an autonomous truck without having to climb into the
truck. They can be quickly transported to the depot hub servers,
which uploads the data to the cloud. The canister accepts both U.2
NVMe or SATA solid state drives (SSDs).
The NVMe version is equipped with a PCIe Gen 4 interface that
provides storage throughput up to 5.0 times faster transfer rate as
compared to SATA. The rugged design, high throughput and large
capacity make it ideal for capturing raw video and data from the
multitude of sensors mounted around the truck and transporting that
data quickly to the depot.
Centauri is designed to meet MIL-STD-810G ruggedization
requirements, making it ideal for both commercial and military
vehicle data logging.
“This second autonomous trucking win for Centauri once again
highlights our expertise in high-performance storage, rugged
environmental design and scale-out technologies,” said Raun. “Our
compute and storage solutions are a perfect match for demanding AI,
high-bandwidth sensors and video sources in ruggedized edge
environments.”
Centauri is currently shipping to multiple customers in
autonomous trucking.
How the System WorksOSS compute solutions, like
the OSS 3U SDS-AT, integrate directly with autonomous trucking
software to gather and process data from the multiple sensors
embedded around an autonomous vehicle, including LiDAR, radar,
telemetry (GPS) and cameras, to make decisions on the road in real
time. The vast amounts of data captured by the sensors and the
performance of the autonomous driving model are then logged on an
OSS storage solution, such as Centauri, and then transported and
uploaded to the cloud at central autonomous truck depots. The cloud
data from the autonomous trucks is then used by data scientists and
an evolving machine learning AI model to improve the vehicle’s
self-driving capabilities.The combination of fast Gen 4 NVMe memory
in a removable canister and the easily accessible location of
Centauri in a truck’s external ‘saddlebag’ compartment creates a
highly efficient method of transporting data between truck and
depot, and allows the truck to quickly get back on the road.
This OSS AI Transportables technology addresses the rapidly
growing global market for autonomous trucking that, according to
Pitchbook, is projected to grow from $528 million in 2023 to more
than $166 billion annually by 2035.
