BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB) shares traded lower in Monday's premarket trading. The company announced an expanded collaboration with NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) and a new automotive software deal with Leapmotor.
QNX Expands NVIDIA Collaboration
QNX, a division of BlackBerry, will integrate its OS for Safety 8.0 with NVIDIA IGX Thor and the Halos Safety Stack to enable real-time, safety-certified AI systems.
The platform combines QNX's operating system with NVIDIA's computing to support robotics, medical, and industrial use cases, with early access available via the IGX Thor Developer Kit.
"As robotics, medical, and industrial systems become more autonomous and software defined, safety and determinism cannot be afterthoughts," said John Wall, President, QNX.
"This expanded collaboration builds on our work with the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor Development Kit and extends the same proven architecture from automotive into the next wave of regulated, intelligent systems."
Leapmotor Adopts QNX For D19 SUV
Leapmotor also selected QNX as the software platform for its upcoming D19 electric SUV. It combines cockpit, driver assistance, and connectivity into one system.
The vehicle enters mass production this month, featuring AI-driven capabilities, multi-display support, and over-the-air updates.
"Leapmotor continues to push the boundaries of intelligent electric vehicle mobility," said Grant Courville, Senior Vice President, Products and Strategy, QNX.
"With our QNX 8 Hypervisor for Safety, our QNX 8 OS and other QNX foundational software, Leapmotor and other automakers can consolidate cockpit and ADAS into a centralized controller, scale performance across many cores, and maintain safety, security and performance to deliver an unparalleled in‑vehicle experience."
