Appotronics and leading international automakers jointly launch a new generation of intelligent lighting solutions, leading the industry's innovation trend.
March 3, 2025 - The global automotive lighting industry has received important news. As a core supplier of automotive lighting parts, Appotronics (stock code: 688007) recently announced that its latest full range of intelligent automotive lighting solutions has successfully obtained exclusive cooperation with a leading international automaker, covering static lights, dynamic color pixel lights, full-color laser projection lights and other products, and plans to achieve mass production and delivery of global models within 2025. This cooperation marks the leap from "following" to "leading" in the field of high-end automotive lighting technology for Chinese companies, further consolidating Appotronics' competitiveness in the global automotive lighting market.
Technological breakthrough: full-scenario coverage, defining new standards for future headlights
The automotive lighting products supplied by Appotronic are centered on "intelligence, personalization, and safety" and cover three major innovation directions:
1.Static lamp multi-function integration: Through AI technology and car system linkage, it supports interactive functions such as consumer-defined LOGO lights and welcome projection, and has environmental recognition capabilities, which can automatically project warning signs (such as lane markings and pedestrian prompts), significantly improving nighttime driving safety and brand recognition.
2.Dynamic color pixel lights: Using high-density LED matrix technology to achieve pixel-level partitioned lighting, it can dynamically display interactive information such as navigation arrows and vehicle distance prompts, and realize personalized functions such as "light dance" through software control.
3.Full-color laser projection lamp: Equipped with the world's first automotive-grade laser module, it has both ultra-long lighting distance (50% higher than traditional LEDs) and anti-glare performance. It is suitable for the intelligent headlight system of high-end models, and can realize innovative applications such as road projection movies and safety signs through DLP technology.
Market competitiveness: technology + cost dual-wheel drive
Lightpeak Technology's lighting solutions are not only known for technological innovation, but also for cost optimization through modular design and high-precision manufacturing processes. For example, its static lights use high-density circuit board integration technology (HDI) and an active cooling system to reduce energy consumption by 30% while ensuring performance; laser projection lights use proprietary patented optical components to reduce manufacturing costs to 60% of similar products, promoting the penetration of high-end technology into mid-range models. According to the company's 2024 performance forecast, its in-vehicle business revenue has exceeded 600 million yuan, and it has obtained 12 designated projects in total. In 2025, new cooperation will include two international automakers.
Industry impact: Reshaping the supply chain landscape
This cooperation not only provides differentiated competitiveness for automakers, but also has far-reaching impacts on the industry:
Technology integration trend: The integrated design of headlights, radars, and cameras has become the focus. Lightpeak Technology reserves sensor space in the light group to support the future expansion of autonomous driving perception functions, such as assisting environmental modeling through laser projected by headlights and road reflection data.
Industry chain collaborative innovation: The patented technology for stamping and forming of headlight components recently launched by partners such as Zhenjiang Feilai Electric Lighting has further optimized production efficiency and precision, and promoted China's headlight manufacturing towards intelligence and scale.
Future Outlook: Accelerating Globalization
Lightpeak Technology said that the company will rely on its existing technological advantages and focus on three strategic directions:
- Expanding the high-end market: In 2025, it plans to launch the next-generation laser headlights that support 4K-level road projection and adapt to L4-level autonomous driving scenarios.
- Green manufacturing upgrade: Replace traditional halogen lamps with LED light sources, aiming to reduce the energy consumption of the entire product line by 40% by 2030.
- Ecological cooperation: Jointly develop automotive-grade control modules with global leading chip manufacturers to improve the compatibility of headlights with the entire vehicle electronic architecture
