We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Hopefully Honda look to take up super cruise in a big way over time. Electric vehicles could present a big opportunity going forwards and I didn't realise the GM ultium battery could provide a range of 400+ miles on full charge. With such a range I think having hands free driving capability would be attractive, certainly in North America. I think at the moment current EV battery tech permits a range of less than 100 miles and thus Honda are not currently building electric vechiles in USA.
Incidentally, my brother in the US was driving a Honda until recently and it had 360,000 miles on the clock. I can't remember the particular model type, but he told me his model was quite capable of doing 450,000 miles during it's lifetime!
I guess we'll have Honda in due course too, who will supposedly adopt super cruise under a different name? Although perhaps a little while to wait there

Up, it all relates to this RNS from summer 2018 I am sure

Will the autonomous functionality not be optional, as from below article an hour ago?

I wonder where those 640,000 models come from however, surely that is the F150? Is that going to be the big news? The mustang release is only an electric version I believe? It also does not sell in huge quantities (less than 100,000 a year).
That we're listed on. I sometimes feel as though the only people buying and selling shares here are those looking at the forum. Someone announces they're buying, another tells us they're selling. It's feels like the f****n chuckle brothers. To me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you lol
I think we're all expecting some good news on the auto front over the coming weeks. I think we'll get some and hopefully that will create the interest that sets the platform for liftoff over the next couple of years. If auto companies are serious about safety, they will be very eager to get the the tech that is proven in the real world - Seeing Machines.
As much as I hate AIM, I can look at a company such as BooHoo and see the success that has had on AIM and believe that SM has the potental to offer similar rewards for investors. So I'll continue to hold long term despite the boredom!
Maybe those that just want to sell out should print out this tweet and stick it on a bedroom wall somewhere. It's something that I might just do. So, in 2021 we have 640,000 DMS car installations (remember there's a European launch pending as well, in addition to the volume US OEM, as per 10th March RNS).

How many DMS installations come the end of 2022?
A 6 week delay for the US OEM according to that veoneer report (F-150 ?).
F-150 n track or a slight delay according to this, from today

I get all of that. I think SM is a great little company and my own investment should be okay in time. But I do now think we'll struggle to get true value here and if the Bosch interest was indeed true I am left scratching my head why the board didn't accept. Many companies listed on AIM are not of the SM calibre unfortunately and I think I am being kind in stating that . The question is, do we really want to be listed on an exchange that attracts such dross? Who is going to want to buy shares here. Maybe it will happen though, as we start to penetrate those 640,000 cars over the coming months!
Can only sit and wait. Australia seems to be handling things quite well and that's where most of our near term fleet prospects appear to be

If ABI research are correct concerning the number of DMS cars fitted in 2022 - 19 million - and SM get a 1/3 of those, we should be doing pretty well here come the back end of 2021.
I agree concerning there being potential bargains elsewhere, but they could also be banana skins. So I've resisted the temptation to sell any here. I think we're invested in a really good company that will flourish in due course. I just have misgivings about our AIM listing and wonder whether we'll get value here.
Break even is about 4.5p for me. I managed to get a small tranche - £500 worth - at 1.49p. The last of my savings. I already have a lot of shares here and am heavily down. Not worried however, I guess there will be further volatitility but Seeing Machines is a company with an excellent future. It's just a shame we're not listed on a decent stock exchange.
Hopefully they can contain the spread of corona in USA, but clearly it's going to take time for things to get back to where they were. My brother resides over there and tells me 90% of people where he lives are wearing face masks in the supermarket. They are now compulsory in my work place and I wonder if in due course we're going to be instructed to adopt similar practices over here when stepping outdoors.
I doubt it. Also, it seems some of the measures taken over there may be having a positve impact hopefully

Looking a the Ted Baker update, it's good at least that there has been minimal disrutpion to it's supply chain and that the significant majority of it's factories are now operational. I guess not something some of the doomsters on here want to hear, but that's the reality.
Over here, a few more weeks of shutdown and hopefully people can get back to work. It was originally envisaged corona would peak around Easter, let's see.
