YANTAI, China, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As global regulatory pressure mounts for automatic emergency braking (AEB) standards across cars and light trucks. Raytron, a global leader in infrared thermal imaging, has partnered with Geely-owned Zeekr. Together, they are debuting the world's first thermal AEB within Zeekr 9X's G-Pilot H9. This integration shifts thermal imaging from mere "perception" and "warning" to a critical component for active decision-making and intervention in intelligent vehicles.
What Is the Difference Between Traditional AEB and Thermal AEB?
Traditional AEB systems rely primarily on visible-light cameras and radar to calculate the distance to obstacles and trigger braking. Thermal AEB incorporates an infrared thermal camera to bridge the critical performance gaps of conventional sensors in challenging conditions:
Raytron's Horus 640D Empowers the World's First Thermal AEB
Raytron's Horus 640D thermal camera module has been successfully integrated into the Zeekr 9X flagship SUV to provide all-weather perception for its AEB system. The module integrates Raytron's proprietary uncooled infrared detector, the next-generation Falcon series infrared image processing chip, and industry-leading image processing algorithms. This integration delivers significant advantages in reliability, cost, performance, form factor, and power consumption. Its compact size (32.5×60.5×43mm) allows for flexible mounting within restricted vehicle spaces, such as the grille, which is critical for OEM mass production. To date, Raytron's automotive thermal modules have powered over 20 vehicle models through partnerships with 15 automotive manufacturers, covering from passenger cars to commercial vehicles and from assisted driving to autonomous vehicles.
