NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion is an open, modular AV development platform designed to help leading global OEMs and mobility providers bring higher levels of automation to market safely and at scale. It combines a state-of-the-art sensor suite that includes one LiDAR, multiple radars, cameras, ultrasonics and external microphones, together with NVIDIA Drive AGX Thor and NVIDIA DriveOS operating system to enable Level 3 and Level 4 automated driving features.

“As a growing number of leading OEMs build their next-generation software-defined vehicles on the NVIDIA DRIVE platform, sensing and perception technology becomes a foundational requirement for enabling Level 3 and higher automated driving,” said Soroush Salehian, Co-Founder and CEO of Aeva. “We’re honored that Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is the LiDAR sensor for the Hyperion vehicle platform. This represents the strength of our technology, supporting its adoption by a growing list of global OEMs.”

This selection follows Aeva’s global production win with a Top European passenger OEM and establishes Aeva’s growing leadership in the passenger and commercial vehicle OEM markets as a key provider of LiDAR sensing and perception software technology for OEMs globally. Aeva’s 4D LiDAR adds 3D sensing and a unique per-point instant velocity measurement to Hyperion’s perception stack, enabling higher-confidence detection, more stable tracking, and robust long-range performance in both day and night conditions. Built on a silicon-photonics LiDAR-on-Chip architecture, Aeva’s sensors are designed for automotive-grade reliability, high-volume manufacturability, and seamless integration with advanced perception software.

Aeva and NVIDIA will collaborate on integrating Aeva’s technology platform into Hyperion to support production vehicle programs targeted in 2028.

Aeva and NVIDIA to integrate Aeva's 4D LiDAR as the reference sensor within the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion platform ecosystem

CAIRO (AP) — A council fighting against Yemen’s Houthi rebels said Wednesday it had expelled the leader of a separatist movement and charged him with treason after he reportedly declined to travel to Saudi Arabia for talks.

The statement carried by SABA news agency controlled by anti-Houthi forces is the latest escalation between Saudi-backed forces and the Southern Transitional Council, which had been backed by the United Arab Emirates. It also further complicates the future of Yemen, the Arab world's poorest country riven by one of the Mideast's worst conflicts for over a decade.

The whereabouts of STC leader Aidarous al-Zubaidi were not immediately known.

The statement from SABA accused al-Zubaidi of “damaging the republic’s military, political and economic standing,” as well as “forming an armed gang and committing the murder of officers and soldiers of the armed forces.”

The STC has not commented on the decision of the anti-Houthi leadership group, known as the Presidential Leadership Council. That council formed in April 2022 after President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi of Yemen's internationally recognized government stepped down.

But its members all had competing interests and backers, with their forces never taking the fight to the Houthis even after both the United States and Israel launched massive bombing campaigns targeting the rebels. An uneasy ceasefire between the combatants on the ground in Yemen has held for years.

In late December, tensions began over the STC's advances in the governorates of Hadramout and Mahra, which were once held by Saudi-backed forces.

An earlier statement Wednesday from Maj. Gen, Turki al-Malki, a spokesperson for a Saudi-led coalition in Yemen, said al-Zubaidi, had been due to take a flight to Saudi Arabia but did not take the flight with other council officials.

“The legitimate government and the coalition received intelligence indicating that al-Zubaidi had moved a large force —including armored vehicles, combat vehicles, heavy and light weapons, and ammunition,” al-Malki said. Al-Zubaidi “fled to an unknown location.”

Saudi Arabia in recent weeks has bombed STC positions and struck what is said was a shipment of Emirati weapons. After Saudi pressure and an ultimatum from anti-Houthi forces to withdraw from Yemen, the UAE said Saturday it had withdrawn its forces.

The tensions in Yemen have further strained ties between Saudi Arabia and the UAE, neighbors on the Arabian Peninsula that have competed over economic issues and regional politics.

Ostensibly, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have shared the coalition’s professed goal of fighting against the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, who have held Yemen's capital, Sanaa, since 2014.

Yemen, on the southern edge of the Arabian Peninsula off East Africa, borders the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The war there has killed more than 150,000 people, including fighters and civilians, and created one of the world’s worst humanitarian disasters.

The Houthis, meanwhile, have launched attacks on hundreds of ships in the Red Sea corridor over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip, disrupting regional shipping. The U.S., which earlier praised Saudi-Emirati efforts to end the crisis over the separatists, has launched airstrikes against the rebels under Presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
