At the Shanghai Auto Show, Changzhou Xingyu Automotive Lighting, Shenzhen Oritek Semiconductor, and LatticePower officially signed a comprehensive strategic coöperation agreement. The three companies will collaborate on a ‘fully autonomous industry chain ecosystem’ to jointly develop the iVision Headlamp, which is set to enter mass production.
Changzhou Xingyu Automotive Lighting have built and maintained leadership in vehicle lighting manufacturing through decades of technological specialization, leveraging expertise and end-to-end manufacturing capabilities. Oritek are redefining the core ecosystem of intelligent lighting with cutting-edge automotive chip full-stack technologies, propelling industry transformation via advanced IC solutions. LatticePower, for their part, are specialists in vertical industrial chain integration, with innovations in self-developed silicon-substrate microLED technology. The three-way coöperation has integrated upstream and downstream resources across chip design, manufacturing, and system integration. This collaboration establishes China’s first end-to-end autonomous supply chain for vehicle lighting.
The iVision Headlamp combines the partners’ technological strengths to achieve breakthroughs in full-domain ADB high beam control, self-closed-loop algorithms, domestic supply chain integration, ultrawide angles, and ultrahigh brightness and pixel density. It integrates the world’s first automotive-dedicated SoC (system on chip) and China’s first microLED light source chip, demonstrating full technological sovereignty from algorithms to optical performance.
The iVision Headlamp and its supply chain will accelerate technological innovations, enhance domestic R&D capabilities, and propel China’s shift from manufacturing to innovation-led growth. It has a 40-kilopixel microLED projector unit with extended FoV of 24° × 6°, Imax of 75 kcd with a 50w × 30h mm lens, and it can do the complete ADB performance without any additional bi-matrix headlamp for high beam width.
Multiple automakers have placed production orders for the iVision headlamp.
