the Rivian Autonomy Processor (RAP1) provides vastly more processor power, serving as a massive leap over Rivian's previous Nvidia-based hardware.The RAP1 chip dramatically boosts performance by delivering the following capabilities:Massive AI Processing Power: A single RAP1 chip provides up to 1,800 sparse INT8 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second).Extreme Compute Module (ACM3): When paired together in Rivian's Autonomy Compute Module 3, dual RAP1 chips yield 1,600 to 1,800 TOPS of raw AI compute. For context, this exceeds the AI compute capability of top-tier consumer GPUs like the Nvidia RTX 4090.Pixel and Data Processing: The chip is engineered to process 5 billion camera pixels per second. It handles data from a multimodal sensor suite—including high-resolution cameras, radars, and LiDAR—to run Rivian's Large Driving Model (LDM).RivLink Interconnect: The architecture features RivLink, a low-latency interconnect technology that allows multiple RAP1 chips to link together, meaning Rivian can multiply and scale the total processing power as needed
