RoboSense Unveils 'Genesis' Chip Architecture

[Technology Launch] RoboSense has introduced the 'Genesis' digital architecture along with its dual flagship SPAD-SoC chips, Phoenix and Peacock, scheduled for mass production within 2026.

Core Strategic Shift: Evolving from a Radar Manufacturer to a Chip Platform Architect

At the 2026 Tech Day, RoboSense systematically unveiled its chip strategy for the first time, launching the fully in-house developed 'Genesis' SPAD-SoC platform. Built on a 28nm automotive-grade process, this architecture reduces core die area by 40%, lowers power consumption by 30%, and integrates a 4320-Core heterogeneous computing array capable of supporting 495 billion point cloud samples per second.

Foundational Strategy: High Pixel Density Is Essential for RGBD Perception

CEO Qiu Chunchao emphasized that for LiDAR to replace cameras, it must first achieve high pixel density. The company plans to launch an RGBD sensor by the end of 2027, contingent upon SPAD chips offering sufficient resolution to prevent color and depth information distortion caused by inadequate pixel count.

Key Metrics: Dual Breakthroughs in Performance and Reliability

The 'Genesis' architecture features a third-generation ultra-sensitive SPAD photodetection layer with a photon detection efficiency of 45%, the highest globally. Its algorithm acceleration layer boosts interference resistance to 99.9%, while its safety layer meets the ASIL B standard, ensuring stable operation in extreme environments ranging from -40°C to 125°C.
