Mobileye announced the integration of Elektrobit’s EB corbos Linux for Safety Applications into its Drive Level‑4 autonomous driving system, providing a safety‑compliant open‑source operating system that supports automotive‑grade field updates and a more flexible software foundation for OEMs and operators.
The integration follows Mobileye’s Q4 2025 earnings miss, where EPS fell to $0.06 versus a forecast of $0.24 and revenue to $446 million versus $726.82 million, underscoring the company’s need to accelerate platform development and cost efficiencies.
The EB corbos Linux solution has received ASIL B and SIL 2 certification from TÜV Nord, covering ISO 26262 and IEC 61508, making it the first open‑source OS to meet automotive functional safety standards. The partnership is expected to reduce development time, lower costs, and improve reliability for Mobileye’s Drive platform.
Mobileye’s strategy to deploy Level‑4 autonomy in robotaxi, ride‑pooling, public transport, and goods‑delivery markets is supported by the new OS, which enables automotive‑grade field updates and a more flexible software foundation for OEMs and operators. The move positions Mobileye to compete more effectively against Nvidia, Qualcomm, Bosch, Continental, and Valeo.
Management highlighted the significance of the partnership. Johann “JJ” Jungwirth said the collaboration is a key factor in expediting mass production of vehicles equipped with Mobileye Drive, while Maria Anhalt emphasized the role of open‑source innovation in advancing autonomous driving systems.
Mobileye’s full‑year 2025 revenue rose 15% to $1.894 billion, but the company reported a negative operating margin of –19.92% and a gross margin of 48.66%. Guidance for 2026 remains flat to 5% year‑over‑year growth, reflecting cautious optimism amid ongoing investment in autonomous technology.
The autonomous driving market is expanding, with North America leading in 2025 and Asia‑Pacific projected to be the fastest‑growing region, underscoring the importance of a robust, safety‑certified platform for Mobileye to capture emerging robotaxi and delivery vehicle opportunities.
