Aurora Innovation, Inc. is a Pittsburgh-based technology firm focused on the development of the Aurora Driver, an integrated autonomous vehicle platform. The system combines proprietary hardware, software, and data services designed to automate various vehicle classes, with a primary commercial focus on the heavy-duty trucking industry.
The company operates within the autonomous driving sector, which utilizes a Hardware-as-a-Service or subscription-based business model to provide logistics firms with self-driving capabilities. Unlike traditional automotive manufacturing, Aurora’s platform is designed to be vehicle-agnostic, allowing for integration across different original equipment manufacturer (OEM) truck models and passenger vehicles.
