CES 2026 recap: Pioneering Level 4+ autonomy with E2E AI and open-source collaboration

Written by TIER IV | 09-Feb-2026 01:00:00


The impact of AI on real-world systems was in sharp focus at CES 2026, January 6-9. Across humanoid robotics, autonomous driving and smart mobility, physical AI – systems that can perceive, reason about and act within the physical environment – emerged as a central theme. TIER IV marked its sixth appearance at CES, showcasing end-to-end (E2E) AI for a Level 4+ autonomy initiative launched in 2025, alongside innovations in Autoware, open-source software for autonomous driving. We were also joined by members of the Autoware ecosystem, highlighting the role of open-source collaboration in advancing autonomous mobility.


If you couldn’t make it to Las Vegas, our booth tour video offers a glimpse of everything we featured at the event.

 

 

A community highlight was the Autoware Foundation and SOAFEE happy hour, supported by sponsors AMD, Arm, NomadicML, Deepen, eSync Alliance and Red Hat. Over a hundred industry peers gathered at the TIER IV booth for an evening of networking and celebration of the Autoware ecosystem.

 


We want to thank our incredible partners, the TIER IV team, and everyone who visited our booth to share in this vision. As we continue advancing Level 4+ autonomous driving technology, we invite you to be part of the journey. To ensure you don’t miss any updates, subscribe to our newsletter!
