 <p>Autonomous delivery vehicle (ADV) developer, Nuro, is collaborating with chip designer Arm to create Nuro's third-generation "R3" ADV, using technological advancements based on evidence. </p>
 <p>They plan to incorporate Arm's Automotive Enhanced technology into the ADVs to potentially boost vehicle efficiency and range by up to 20%, without enlarging the battery size. Also, Arm's technology supports Nuro’s AI-based "brain", which oversees operations and guarantees the safety of their robot vehicles while in transit. </p>
 <p>The public launch for the R3 is expected by Nuro to occur later this year.</p>

Nuro partners with Arm to develop third-generation autonomous delivery vehicles

<div>
 <p>Nuro, a developer of autonomous delivery vehicles (ADVs), has teamed up with Foretellix, a company specializing in safety testing solutions for autonomous vehicles and advanced driving assistance. Their collaboration will involve virtual testing of Nuro's automated driving systems using Foretellix's software, leveraging data from Nuro's test vehicles.</p>
 <p>Foretellix’s technology is designed to generate a wide array of test scenarios for autonomous software. This eliminates the need for in-house scenario creation, resulting in lower research and development costs.</p>

INCUMBENTS_PRESENT

Autonomous delivery vehicle startup, Nuro, has secured $600 million in a Series D funding round. The round was led by Tiger Global Management and included participation from Google, Toyota Motor Corp’s Woven Capital, SoftBank Vision Fund 1, and Kroger. This funding brings Nuro's valuation to $8.6 billion, up from $5 billion a year ago, and brings its total funds raised to $2.1 billion. The company plans to use the funds to expand nationwide and increase production of its third-generation ADV. Nuro has also announced a partnership with Google Cloud to support its self-driving simulations and data management. Analyst QuickTake: Nuro is a pioneer in the last-mile delivery automation space and is by far the highest funded private company in the industry (followed by drone-based delivery service provider Zipline’s USD 483 million funding). Today, Google joins several major brands such as Kroger, Walmart, and FedEx, to have partnered with or invested in Nuro, despite Google’s involvement in the ADV space via its own autonomous vehicle arm Waymo. Interestingly, both of Nuro’s co-founders have previously worked with Google’s self-driving car project (later spun off as Waymo) before establishing Nuro.
