Bosch has begun supplying hardware components to Kodiak AI as part of their collaboration on autonomous driving technology.
Kodiak is testing and validating camera samples from Bosch and has integrated early prototype sensors into its SensorPods, which house autonomous driving hardware. The company is also evaluating Bosch vehicle actuation components as part of ongoing development and testing.
Since announcing their collaboration in January 2026, Bosch and Kodiak AI have progressed from strategic alignment to joint engineering work.
“The quick transition to tangible engineering progress underscores the velocity behind this collaboration,” said Don Burnette, founder and CEO, Kodiak AI. “By validating Bosch’s sensors and components, we are deep into the ‘how’ of high-volume production. Our rapid progress is proving we have the shared ability to execute on the roadmap to industrialize the Kodiak Driver at scale.”
The collaboration is focused on building a robust, production-ready autonomous platform that integrates hardware, firmware and software interfaces required to deploy the Kodiak Driver, Kodiak’s AI-powered driving system.
“Our progress highlights our readiness to move from strategic alignment to industrial execution as we work to bring scaled autonomous trucking to fruition,” added Peter Tadros, regional president, power solutions, Bosch North America. “This cooperation has accelerated and deepened our understanding of real-world autonomous vehicle requirements and helped us forge a path for scaling redundant autonomous driving technology for the entire ecosystem.”
By combining Kodiak AI’s autonomous driving technology with Bosch’s manufacturing expertise, the collaboration aims to support the development of a scalable autonomous trucking platform. The focus is on modular design, serviceability and system-level integration to enable future commercial deployment of driverless trucks.
