November 18 – The 5th SERES Lightweight Conference convened at Chongqing Wuyun Lake Convention Center, bringing together 113 upstream and downstream supply chain partners. The event focused on advancing lightweight technology innovation and fostering deeper industry collaboration to support high-quality development in the automotive sector.
As a key partner in the SERES ecosystem, YFORE showcased four innovative products: the Ceiling Display, the Digital Mirror, NearLink Digital Key, and UWB Kick Sensor. Our technological excellence earned us the "Annual Excellent Supplier" award.
Innovation and Deep Collaboration
Since the start of our partnership, YFORE has actively contributed to SERES' lightweight and smart vehicle initiatives. From initial technical adaptation to large-scale core component supply, we have aligned with Seres' strategy to address electric vehicles' needs for weight reduction, efficiency, and enhanced user experience.
Our exhibit highlighted not only mature market-ready solutions but also integrated achievements in "lightweight structural design + smart functional integration," exemplifying supply-demand synergy and joint innovation within the Seres ecosystem.
Lightweight & Smart – Core Exhibits
Ceiling Display:
Designed for the M7 model, it weighs <5kg (industry avg.: 6kg) with an ultra-thin 13.2mm profile and 8.5mm narrow bezels. An integrated display-drive transmission structure and magnesium alloy base reduce weight and simplify assembly.
HD Digital Mirror:
Reuses ADAS cameras, eliminating the need for a 50g standalone camera. With an 8mm edge thickness (industry avg. >15mm) and weight optimized to 500g (industry avg.: 600g), it combines lightweight design with high brightness and efficiency.
NearLink Digital Key:
As the first Tier 1 to achieve mass production of NearLink digital keys, YFORE's upgraded version removes physical key weight and integrates NearLink SLE + UWB for CPD child presence detection without extra components.
A Model of Collaborative Innovation
YFORE's digital keys, digital mirrors, and ceiling displays are already batch-supplied for AITO models. With proven product reliability and continuous innovation, we stood out among suppliers to receive the "Annual Excellent Supplier" award.
This recognition marks a strategic evolution from product supply to ecosystem co-innovation. It affirms YFORE's approach of enabling smart features through lightweight structural design.
Moving forward, YFORE will deepen collaboration with SERES and global partners, focusing on smart access, smart cabin space, and smart mirroring. Through material innovation, structural optimization, and functional integration, we will continue driving "weight reduction and efficiency gains" in automotive electronics, supporting the new energy vehicle industry's transition toward low-carbon, high-efficiency, and intelligent mobility.
