About Arm
Arm was founded in Cambridge in 1990 and built a global business around licensing processor architectures, CPU cores and supporting software rather than manufacturing most end devices itself. Its Cortex, Neoverse and automotive compute platforms span low-power microcontrollers, real-time safety systems, general-purpose application processing and high-throughput infrastructure.
Physical-AI relevance is direct and system-wide in Tensor’s Robocar. Tensor and Arm disclose 433 Arm-based cores per vehicle, including Neoverse AE for AI processing, Cortex-X for cabin and system control, Cortex-A for drive-by-wire, lidar and redundancy, Cortex-R for safety-critical real-time functions and Cortex-M for subsystem management. The profile therefore treats Arm as a foundational compute-IP supplier, not a generic public-market adjacency.
