Rideflux announced on the 30th that it will pursue the application of autonomous driving AI software and SDV platforms to mass-produced vehicles with KGM and Hyundai Mobis. Rideflux, KGM, Hyundai Mobis, the Korea Automobile Mobility Industry Association, the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology, the Korea Evaluation Institute of Industrial Technology, the Korea Automotive Technology Institute, and the Intelligent Automotive Parts Promotion Institute signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on establishing a strategic partnership for advancing KGM's SDV and SW.
The agreement is part of activities under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy's "M.AX Alliance." The participating organizations will jointly pursue technology development, demonstration and commercialization to bring vehicles equipped with autonomous driving solutions and SDV platforms into commercial use.
Based on the agreement, the participating organizations will pursue ways to apply Hyundai Mobis' SDV platform and Rideflux's AI-based autonomous driving solution to KGM vehicles. As a result, the framework for cooperation centered on KGM vehicles has been made more concrete.
Under the division of roles, Hyundai Mobis will provide the SDV platform and technical consulting. Rideflux will be responsible for applying and optimizing the autonomous driving software in vehicles.
Relevant organizations will support demonstration and commercialization. The Korea Evaluation Institute of Industrial Technology will be in charge of identifying and planning government support projects. The Korea Automotive Technology Institute and the Intelligent Automotive Parts Promotion Institute will provide vehicle test and driving test infrastructure.
Rideflux plans to expand its business scope through this agreement. The direction of expansion is to shift and broaden from service-oriented businesses such as robotaxis, robo-trucks and autonomous buses to B2B software supply for automakers. Rideflux is pursuing entry into the finished-vehicle market centered on its "AI Driver" software that can be applied to mass-produced passenger cars.
The company plans to expand commercialization in stages from Level 2+ to Level 4. Its first task is to advance driver assistance and autonomous driving functions that can be applied to mass-produced vehicles. In the long term, it envisions expanding the scope of technology application to fully driverless autonomous driving.
On the same day, Rideflux also signed a memorandum of understanding with Kakao Mobility, SWM and the Korea Automotive Technology Institute, among others, on "Establishing an AI robotaxi demonstration and learning data ecosystem." The agreement includes sharing experience in unmanned operations, remote support and safety verification. The parties will also cooperate on selecting long-tail scenarios from real-world driving data and updating high-definition maps.
Park Joong-hee, CEO of Rideflux, said the cooperation with KGM and Hyundai Mobis lays the foundation for entering the B2B mass-production passenger car market, and added that the company will use this as a basis to pursue step-by-step commercialization from the start of Level 2+ deployment to Level 4 and expand its autonomous driving software business.
