Horizon Launches China's First Cockpit-Driving Integrated Agent Chip and Operating System

2026 04/24

On April 22, 2026, Horizon officially unveiled China's first cockpit-driving integrated vehicle agent chip, the "Horizon Starry®," alongside the "KaKaClaw™" operating system in Beijing. This landmark launch marks a pivotal transition for in-vehicle computing architecture—moving from distributed domain controllers to a unified central computing platform. Built on a cutting-edge 5nm process, the Starry® chip delivers up to 650 TOPS of computing power, enabling real-time fusion of cockpit entertainment, autonomous driving, and vehicle control functions within a single, high-performance SoC.

While this breakthrough is primarily automotive-focused, the underlying technologies—high-performance AI chips, real-time operating systems, and general-purpose system integration—have far-reaching implications across a broad spectrum of industries. In handicraft production, edge AI chips enable real-time visual guidance for artisans working with delicate materials. Heavy industrial equipment manufacturers are adopting similar computing platforms for predictive maintenance and autonomous operation in harsh environments. High-speed packaging lines for office supplies leverage AI-accelerated vision systems for defect detection and quality sorting. In furniture manufacturing, intelligent control systems coordinate robotic arms and conveyor belts with sub-millisecond precision. The medical device industry benefits from AI-powered imaging and diagnostic systems that require the kind of massive parallel processing power that Starry®-class chips provide. Meanwhile, facility-wide security networks are integrating AI chips for real-time video analytics, intrusion detection, and access control—all processed at the edge for low-latency response.

The breakthrough in AI chips and general-purpose system integration is highly relevant to Hefei Hanhe Intelligent Technology's business scope, which includes AI general application systems, industrial robot sales, and intelligent instrument sales. As the lines between automotive, industrial, commercial, and consumer AI continue to blur, the computing paradigms pioneered by Horizon's Starry® chip and KaKaClaw™ OS will increasingly influence how intelligent systems are designed—whether for industrial equipment control, medical device imaging, furniture automation, office supplies logistics, handicraft assistance, or integrated security surveillance. Hanhe is well-positioned to leverage these advancements in AI system integration, delivering cutting-edge intelligent solutions that span from the factory floor to the broader industrial ecosystem.
