Technology firm AUMOVIO and adhesive manufacturer tesa have entered a partnership to introduce a new mechanical integration solution for automotive displays.

The collaboration focuses on a robotic bonding process that allows for debonding-on-demand, a feature designed to facilitate repairs and recycling throughout a vehicle's life cycle.

The system utilises a 2 mm wide adhesive tape that is applied robotically, providing an immediate load-bearing bond without curing time. This narrow profile enables the manufacturing of ultra-thin display bezels similar to those found in smartphones.

Unlike traditional permanent adhesives, this bond can be selectively detached with minimal effort, allowing individual display components to be replaced or reworked during production or service without discarding the entire module.

The technology is engineered to compensate for material expansion across automotive temperature ranges while supporting circular economy principles. By enabling the recovery of valuable components at the end of a vehicle's service life, the solution aligns with AUMOVIO’s sustainability strategy. The partners are currently preparing to integrate this process into volume production during the second quarter of 2026.

Pavel Prouza, Head of the User Experience (UX) Business Area at AUMOVIO, said, “The combination of highly precise, automated application and targeted detachability adds an important element to our manufacturing and quality processes. It strengthens the robustness of our production, reduces material waste, and promotes efficient use of valuable components. For the end customer, this could even mean that future repairs may require replacing only the affected individual components in a cost-effective way.”

David Caro, Head of Automotive, tesa, said, “This partnership demonstrates how innovative materials technology is advancing the mobility of tomorrow. Together with AUMOVIO, we offer automated adhesive bonds that not only provide long-term durability but can also be deliberately debonded – enabling efficient production, longer product life cycles, and circular product concepts. This helps our customers translate their sustainability goals into tangible product solutions.”

China’s WeRide has announced that at the Wuhu round of the Second China Urban Intelligent Driving Competition, the Chery Exeed Sterra ET, powered by the WeRide WRD 3.0 (jointly developed with Bosch), claimed first place with a lead of over 10 points.

As the first publicly traded Robotaxi company, WeRide operates in over 40 cities across 12 countries. It holds autonomous driving permits in eight major markets, including the UAE, Singapore and the US, providing L2 to L4 solutions across the mobility, logistics and sanitation sectors.

This win marks the first time in the competition's history that a single solution has achieved four consecutive championships, following previous victories in Taizhou, Wenzhou and Jinhua.

The WRD 3.0 system utilises a one-stage end-to-end ADAS solution designed to handle complex urban environments. Its performance is driven by two key internal technologies:

• GENESIS Simulation World Model: A proprietary platform that uses generative AI to reproduce rare ‘long-tail’ scenarios, bridging the gap between virtual training and real-world application.
• L4 Driverless Data Integration: The system leverages large-scale data from WeRide's fully driverless operations to refine perception and planning in dense traffic, such as street markets and mixed-use urban roads.

WeRide has transitioned WRD 3.0 from an algorithmic concept to a production-ready system, achieving hardware-software decoupling that allows it to run on different computing tiers.

With the launch of the Aion N60, WeRide has become the first autonomous driving provider to achieve mass production of one-stage end-to-end technology on both Nvidia Drive and Qualcomm Snapdragon platforms.

While strengthening its presence in China with brands like GAC Trumpchi and Hyptec, WeRide is expanding its international footprint. Through partnerships with Tiggo, Omoda and JAECOO, the company aims to export its intelligent driving solutions to global markets.

South Korea-based Stradvision, a company specialising in AI-based vision perception technology, has been selected by a global commercial vehicle manufacturer to deploy its SVNet software across its Indian vehicle lineup.

The programme focuses on fleet-scale deployment of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in a market where perception software must balance technical reliability with cost-efficiency.

The company stated that the Indian commercial vehicle sector requires ADAS solutions capable of operating on resource-constrained hardware while maintaining performance in high-density traffic.

SVNet is engineered to detect and classify objects in mixed-traffic environments, including two-wheelers, three-wheelers and pedestrians. This software architecture allows the OEM to implement functions such as automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning and lane departure warning across various models using a single software stack.

The deployment is structured to allow the manufacturer to standardise its perception platform while adjusting for model-specific hardware.

Till date, Stradvision has deployed approximately 5 million units of SVNet globally, providing the production maturity required for high-volume commercial vehicle programmes. This project indicates a shift in the automotive industry towards perception solutions that prioritises scalability and operational efficiency across diverse market conditions.

Philip Vidal, CBO, Stradvision, said, "India's commercial vehicle segment is one of the most consequential ADAS markets opening right now. The scale of the fleet, the complexity of the traffic environment, and the cost requirements make it a genuine test of whether perception software can perform where it matters most. SVNet was built for exactly this kind of deployment, and this program is a strong validation of that."
