Electric Adventure Vehicle maker Rivian is not your average automotive manufacturer. On a mission to “Keep the World Adventurous Forever,” the company is driven to build the kind of future “our kids’ kids’ kids deserve.”

As staggering and complex as this objective sounds, Rivian sees every challenge as an opportunity to seek out better ways of doing things. That’s why it used Unreal Engine to build a state-of-the-art HMI (Human-Machine Interface) for its brand-new R1T—the first fully electric pickup truck to be delivered to the consumer market.

Cool video, thanks for sharing. Is there a "Rivian Bike" Easter Egg in the video?

That video was a treat for team yellow. Also both exciting to see the Driver+ UI work being done and hearing that they have a lot of updates planned.

I'd guess this is the bike visualization from the sensor fusion view on the driver display.

My son is an industrial designer and was telling me about a new way of rendering out very complex scenes in movies. Usually it is a series of polygons and quickly becomes too combersome to show fine detail. It turns out it is the same technology (unreal) that Rivian put to use in its design work. Considering they did it several years ago, they were ahead of the curve and gives even more confidence in the design.

Thanks for sharing. It sounds like they put a lot of thought into the graphic design and driving interface. Now I'm really curious what type of embedded computing hardware they are using.
