PARIS, FR / ACCESS Newswire / May 26, 2025 / In a rare and distinguished gathering at Place de la Concorde, Paris, Rokid went on the global innovation stage as the only Chinese company invited to the 130th anniversary celebration of the Automobile Club of France (ACF). This private, closed-door event convened some of the most influential figures in the automotive and technological worlds for a high-level exchange on the future of AI and AR in mobility and beyond.
Held within the historic halls of one of Europe's oldest and most prestigious automotive institutions, the forum was a forward-looking platform designed to expose auto industry leaders to breakthroughs outside their traditional domain. In this context, Rokid's inclusion among a carefully curated group of just eight exhibitors underscored its growing global reputation as a pioneer in augmented reality and human-machine interaction.
The event format spanned three key segments: an exclusive tech innovation forum, immersive exhibition and demo experiences, and a VIP gala dinner. C-level guests from major French automotive companies, such as Renault CEO Luca de Meo, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares, and the Peugeot family, were in attendance, and there was serious dialogue on transformation and innovation.
Rokid's showcase featured its flagship AR glasses, with a subtle but impactful demo demonstrating real-world use cases in mobility, medical, and cultural applications. The presentation leaned into functionality, highlighting how Rokid's lightweight glasses enable intuitive, hands-free access to information overlays, spatial interaction, and AI-powered vision.
Strategically, the forum placed Rokid in direct conversation with influential figures across multiple sectors:
Forvia, one of the top three global interior suppliers for automotive OEMs, explored collaboration pathways for integrating AR into in-cabin experiences-areas where Rokid's lightweight form factor and interface agility are well-suited.
Representatives from France's national hospital alliance and top medical institutions shared insights on AI in surgery and diagnosis, opening conversations on future applications of AR in medical training and live procedures.
Leaders from Europe's digital art and museum ecosystems, including ArtPoint and AIKA Digital Museum, expressed interest in the technological potential of Augmented Reality to power immersive experiences across galleries and heritage sites.
Beyond the event, ACF also introduced an upcoming digital twin project for its annual European rally championship. While Apple Vision Pro had been preliminarily considered, the success of Rokid's real-time demos and the flexibility of its developer ecosystem positioned it as a strong alternative, inviting further evaluation for future implementation.
Zoro, Rokid's Global General Manager, was interviewed at the venue, sharing the company's vision for bringing spatial computing into practical, everyday contexts, from mobility to education, and healthcare to cultural preservation.
As the only Chinese company to participate in this landmark celebration, Rokid's presence resonated far beyond the exhibition space. It marked a broader message: Chinese innovation in AR and AI is now helping shape the future across borders, industries, and cultures.
