level 3 technical

"for a Level 3 automated driving passenger vehicle program in China"

Level 3 describes the lowest-confidence category in the accounting “fair value” hierarchy, covering assets or liabilities whose prices are not observable in the market and must be estimated using judgment and internal models. For investors, Level 3 items matter because they can introduce greater uncertainty and potential valuation swings—like valuing a unique antique versus checking a price tag on a supermarket shelf—so they signal higher model risk and lower liquidity.

imaging radar technical

"Hirain's imaging radar, powered by Arbe's ultra-high-resolution radar chipset"

A sensor system that uses radio waves to detect objects and produce detailed two- or three-dimensional images of their position, shape, speed and movement, similar to how a camera makes a picture but using radar signals instead of light. It matters to investors because imaging radar underpins products such as advanced driver-assistance systems, robotics, drones and industrial safety equipment, so advances, certifications, or supply changes can affect sales, costs and competitive positions for companies in those markets.

Hirain to Begin Series-Production Radar Deliveries in Q4 2027, Ahead of Vehicle Start of Production

BEIJING and TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hirain Technologies, a provider of world-class electronic systems and technology services, and Arbe Robotics (NASDAQ: ARBE) (TASE: ARBE), a global leader in ultra-high-resolution radar solutions, today announced that one of the world's largest automotive groups has selected Hirain's imaging radar, powered by Arbe's ultra-high-resolution radar chipset, for a Level 3 automated driving passenger vehicle program in China, across multiple brands under the group. Hirain will manufacture, supply, and integrate the radar system, with series-production deliveries scheduled to begin in Q4 2027, ahead of vehicle start of production.

This win marks a significant expansion of the companies' collaboration into Level 3 automated driving and places the Hirain-Arbe imaging radar solution on a defined path to series production. For the program, Hirain will deliver the complete automotive radar system and lead system development, manufacturing, integration, validation, and quality, leveraging its established automotive manufacturing infrastructure. Arbe's ultra-high-resolution radar chipset and core technology will power the system, generating the dense and detailed radar data required by the vehicle's central automated-driving platform.

"This is a strategically important program for Hirain with one of the world's largest automotive groups," said Dr. Chengjian Fan, CTO of Hirain. "The customer conducted an exceptionally rigorous evaluation across technology, safety, quality, validation, manufacturing, and commercial readiness. Being chosen for this Level 3 program reflects the trust in our solution and our ability to execute against the standards of a leading global automotive manufacturer. Arbe's radar technology has been central to reaching this point, and we look forward to bringing the system into series production."

"Winning a major Level 3 program with a top global automotive group is a defining milestone in the commercialization of Arbe's technology," said Ram Machness, CEO of Arbe. "For eyes-off automated driving, radar must provide far more than detection; it must deliver the detailed perception data the vehicle can rely on at scale. The customer's decision demonstrates the growing role of ultra-high-resolution radar as a core component of next-generation automated driving. We are proud to reach this point together with Hirain, a long-standing Arbe partner, and congratulate their team on the outstanding engineering that brought the program to this stage. Our focus now turns to execution."

This selection by a leading global automotive group reinforces Hirain's and Arbe's position as preferred technology partners for global OEMs advancing automated driving. The imaging radar combines Hirain's automotive system engineering and manufacturing capabilities with Arbe's ultra-high-resolution chipset to deliver the resolution, range, and reliability required for Level 3, in a scalable solution designed for high-volume passenger vehicle programs.
