The agreement positions Rocksolid as part of the AR development stack for future automotive OEM programs, aligning with the broader shift toward software-defined vehicles.

Basemark founder and CEO Tero Sarkkinen emphasizes that Rocksolid enables production-ready AR experiences with predictable performance and quality for SDV architectures.

Rocksolid provides an end-to-end AR development workflow, enabling creation in Rocksolid Studio and deployment via Rocksolid Engine across automotive hardware, covering rapid prototyping to series production.

Ignite will leverage Rocksolid to expand its AR toolkit without building a new development and runtime stack from scratch, lowering program risk for OEM projects.

The collaboration aims to move automotive AR concepts toward production by reducing integration risk and development complexity for software-defined vehicles.

Lukas Rott, COO at HELLA Ignite GmbH, notes that AR is a defining interface of the software-defined vehicle and this partnership offers a clear path to series production with reduced complexity and risk.

Basemark and Ignite by FORVIA HELLA have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to integrate Basemark’s Rocksolid AR platform into Ignite’s automotive AR offering for OEMs.
