## Key takeaways

- Qianli Technology released its AI millimeter-wave radar \(4D\) in October 2026, after acquiring 100% of Ronggan Technology in June 2026\.
- The 8T8R radar has a built-in 10 TOPS NPU and detects plastic cones at 110 meters, tires at 180 meters, two-wheelers at 250 meters, cardboard boxes at 300 meters and moving vehicles at 380 meters\.
- Compared with Qianli's previous-generation 4D radar using DSP-based on-device computing, the new radar increases point cloud density 10 times, detection range by 40%, ghost elimination to 95% and spatial angular resolution 12 times\.

## Radar Launch and Acquisition

Qianli Technology released its AI millimeter-wave radar \(4D\) in October 2026\. The company acquired 100% of Ronggan Technology in June 2026\.

The radar is an 8T8R unit with a built-in 10 TOPS NPU\. Qianli states that, within public information, this is the first automotive millimeter-wave radar to integrate computing power at that level\.

## Detection Performance

Qianli's AI radar stably detects an unobstructed stationary child at a range of 100 to 150 meters\. The 8T8R radar detects plastic traffic cones at 110 meters, tires at 180 meters, two-wheelers at 250 meters, cardboard boxes at 300 meters and moving vehicles at up to 380 meters\.

## Generational Improvements

Compared with Qianli's previous-generation 4D radar that used DSP-based on-device computing, the new radar increases point cloud density 10 times, raises detection range by 40%, improves ghost elimination to 95% and increases spatial angular resolution 12 times\.

## Deployment Modes

Qianli offers the radar in three working modes: edge-side, satellite architecture and a compatible mode\. All three modes share one hardware base and feature interface, supporting deployment according to a vehicle model's computing power configuration and cost targets\.

## Technology Partners

Qianli combines a self-developed intelligent driving large model with StepFun's foundation model\. The on-device chip is supplied externally, cloud computing power is provided by Tianshu Zhixin, and the Geely ecosystem provides vehicle platforms and real-world data\.

In August, the team open-sourced the WA-JEPA world-action model\.
