3. Nio Autonomous driving (NAD) system:

Aquilla is the autonomous driving system installed in the NIO ET7. It generates 8 gigabytes of data per second and this data is analyzed by an onboard computer, which is known as ‘Adam’. Aquilla uses 33 sensors which include eleven 8-megapixel high-definition cameras and a long-distance high-definition camera, five millimeters radars, 2 high-precision positioning units, a high-resolution LiDAR with a 500 m range. Hence, it has various sensors that made its autonomous driving better than its competitors. The 8 MP camera installed in this variant sees further with superior details. These cameras are high resolution which enables this model to be autonomous. The ultralong range LiDAR provides safety to the occupants. Consequently, The ultralong-range high-resolution LiDAR significantly improves the safety of the car by two levels.
