AXERA and MAXIEYE have already built a solid cooperation foundation in China's in-vehicle technology sector, achieving significant success in mass production of ADAS solutions. This new phase of collaboration marks a shift from a domestic focus to a global strategy.

At the AUTO SHANGHAI, AXERA launched its new M57 series—a globally oriented automotive-grade chip platform tailored for the international ADAS market. The company said the M57 chips comply with stringent automotive safety certifications and are designed to help customers meet regulatory standards worldwide. MAXIEYE and AXERA will jointly explore further innovations based on this platform.

Looking ahead, the partnership will include deeper cooperation in system architecture co-definition, co-development of standards and certifications, and global project deployments.

The alliance exemplifies how China's local AI chipmakers and ADAS algorithm developers are working together to go global. AXERA will continue to provide full-stack support—from chip design to toolchain development—to enhance the deployment efficiency of MAXIEYE's MAXIPILOT® ADAS system. Leveraging its Hyperspace BEV deep learning framework and MAXI-DI data intelligence system, MAXIEYE aims to achieve rapid algorithm adaptation and closed-loop optimization of AI models, delivering high-performance, system-level ADAS solutions for the global market.
