Behind the windshield, Bosch’s fourth-generation multifunction camera, MPC4, is bringing Chinese chips into the global automotive supply chain. According to official Bosch information, the product has secured a high-volume production program covering more than 40 vehicle models and over 200 projects in China and overseas. Its overall scale is in the tens of millions of units, with mass production scheduled to officially begin in the third quarter of 2026. Markets include China, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, Latin America, the Middle East and the Asia-Pacific region.

这只摄像头负责识别车辆、行人、车道和交通标志,为自动紧急制动、车道保持等辅助驾驶功能提供感知输入。到了第四代,MPC4升级至800万像素120度水平视野,最远探测距离达到300米;随着感知算法从过去以卷积神经网络为主,转向引入Transformer,摄像头、算法和计算平台也一起换代。

The camera identifies vehicles, pedestrians, lanes and traffic signs, providing perception input for driver-assistance functions such as automatic emergency braking and lane keeping. In its fourth generation, MPC4 has been upgraded to 8 million pixels and a 120-degree horizontal field of view, with a maximum detection range of 300 meters. As perception algorithms shift from an earlier focus on convolutional neural networks toward the introduction of Transformer technology, the camera, algorithms and computing platform are being upgraded together.

变化最明显的是计算平台。博世第二代前视一体机采用美国赛灵思,第三代转向日本瑞萨,第四代首次换成中国公司的芯片。地平线征程6B在2026年5月首次量产上车,搭载广汽丰田铂智3X;截至2026年8月,它已覆盖25家以上车企、50多款车型,生命周期定点量超过2000万套。博世基于征程6M的中阶辅助驾驶方案也已经量产。

The most visible change is the computing platform. Bosch’s second-generation integrated front-view system used Xilinx from the United States, while the third generation switched to Japan’s Renesas. The fourth generation is the first to use a chip from a Chinese company. Horizon Robotics’ Journey 6B entered mass-produced vehicles for the first time in May 2026, powering the GAC Toyota Bozhi 3X. As of August 2026, it had covered more than 25 automakers and over 50 vehicle models, with lifetime production-designated volumes exceeding 20 million units. Bosch’s mid-range driver-assistance solution based on Journey 6M has also entered mass production.

这条路径的价值,在于一级供应商的产品平台能够跨品牌复制。过去,中国汽车芯片更多跟随中国车企出海;如今,地平线先进入博世,再随博世面向多个国家和品牌交付。第一电动网援引博世官方消息称,MPC4主要由博世中国团队开发并向全球推广,后续连接的是博世已有的客户和交付体系。

Translation · English

The value of this route lies in the ability of a Tier 1 supplier’s product platform to be replicated across brands. In the past, Chinese automotive chips more often followed Chinese automakers overseas. Now, Horizon Robotics can first enter Bosch and then reach multiple countries and brands through Bosch’s deliveries. D1EV, citing official Bosch information, reported that MPC4 was developed mainly by Bosch’s China team and is being promoted globally, connecting it to Bosch’s existing customer and delivery network.

具体来说,车企和零部件供应商获得的是一套已经嵌入全球项目的计算、算法与工程方案,而不是只面向单一车型的芯片。与此同时,前视摄像头模组的价格已从几年前的1000至1500元压到约600至900元,像素、识别距离和算法能力仍在提升。地平线还与日本电装合作,并与欧摩威的合作延伸到合资公司和智驾产品开发,但这些能力仍需跨过功能安全、软件适配、车型验证和长期交付等门槛。

Translation · English

Specifically, automakers and component suppliers receive a computing, algorithm and engineering package already embedded in global programs, rather than a chip intended for a single vehicle model. At the same time, the price of front-view camera modules has fallen from 1,000–1,500 yuan several years ago to approximately 600–900 yuan, while pixel count, detection range and algorithm capabilities continue to improve. Horizon Robotics is also collaborating with Japan’s Denso, while its cooperation with Oumowei has expanded to a joint venture and intelligent-driving product development. These capabilities must still clear hurdles involving functional safety, software adaptation, vehicle validation and long-term delivery.
