From June 20 to 22, 2025, Huawei Developer Conference (HDC 2025) was successfully held in Songshan Lake, Dongguan. YFORE was an invited participant and delivered a keynote speech titled "NearLink Technology: Unlocking Infinite Possibilities for Smart Mobility" at the NearLink special forum.
From Standard Development to Mass Production of NearLink Projects
Since March 2024, the Intelligent Vehicle Connectivity Industry Ecosystem Alliance (ICCE Alliance), in collaboration with the International NearLink Alliance, launched the "Digital Car Key System Part 6: NearLink System Requirements" standard, providing industry-wide guidance on the development of NearLink digital car keys.
As one of the primary developers of the NearLink digital car key standard, YFORE has completed multiple NearLink digital car key projects, leading a new revolution in intelligent access solutions.
Addressing Traditional Challenges with NearLink Reliability
Partnering with Shanghai HiSilicon, YFORE innovatively integrated NearLink SLE technology, leveraging phase difference and Time-of-Flight (ToF) algorithms for precise positioning. This allows for customized welcoming experiences and seamless, contactless unlocking and locking—for example, in models like the Wenjie M9: when the user approaches within 10 meters, an interactive projection is activated; at 3 meters, the vehicle unlocks rapidly with a smooth "human to lock" experience; and when leaving at approximately 8 meters, it locks automatically, enabling effortless smart mobility.
Traditional Bluetooth digital keys can experience signal instability and misinterpretation of commands in complex environments, such as underground parking lots, leading to the so-called "ping-pong" phenomenon. However, YFORE's NearLink digital key solution maintains stable positioning and accurately executes unlock and lock commands, even in challenging conditions, ensuring reliability and stability for users and providing unprecedented convenience and peace of mind.
NearLink Enables New Cockpit Interaction Experiences with Directional Remote Control
Beyond NearLink Digital Car Keys, YFORE has deeply integrated NearLink technology with Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for attitude recognition. This powers its directional remote control product for overhead screens, creating an "as you point, so it goes" interaction experience.
Traditional Bluetooth touch remotes, with their small touch panels and need for multiple swipes, are inefficient. Gesture recognition, on the other hand, often faces limitations in distance, low recognition rates, high user learning curves, and inoperability from the third row of seats. YFORE's NearLink Directional Remote perfectly solves these pain points. By deeply fusing NearLink technology with IMU attitude recognition, it breaks the spatial limitations of traditional interaction methods, allowing users in any seat row to enjoy a consistent and fluid interactive experience. The directional remote offers a dual "wireless mouse + laser pointer" control experience, enabling precise and smooth operations such as clicking, dragging, circling, skipping selections, and scrolling. This significantly enhances operational accuracy and efficiency for various scenarios, including adjusting video playback, annotating in rear-seat displays during meetings, and gaming.
Currently, YFORE's in-car directional remote made its global debut at the 2025 NearLink Summit and has received widespread industry acclaim. We are confident that in the near future, YFORE's in-car directional remote will be applied in high-end passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and more, offering users a new dimension of "boundless interaction".
Open Collaboration to Build the HarmonyOS Smart Mobility Ecosystem
From co-building ICCE standards to deep integration within the HarmonyOS ecosystem, YFORE leverages NearLink technology as a pivot to construct a technical closed loop of "precise positioning - low-power connectivity - seamless interaction". Moving forward, we will continue to collaborate with industry partners like ICCE and Huawei, focusing on technological innovation and ecosystem co-building. We aim to inject new momentum into the smart mobility ecosystem and leverage cutting-edge technology to better serve mobility scenarios, making every journey a highly efficient and convenient smart experience.
