Seeing Machines' technology is found in numerous models across several major automotive brands, with a significant expansion underway due to new European safety regulations. As of mid-2025, their DMS is in production across over three million passenger cars globally.
General Motors
GM was an early adopter, integrating Seeing Machines' FOVIO software engine into its hands-free Super Cruise system.
Cadillac CT4
Cadillac CT5
Cadillac CT6 (models from late 2017 onwards)
Chevrolet Bolt
Mercedes-Benz
Seeing Machines has had successful launches on the brand's luxury sedans.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class

The VW Group is incorporating the technology to meet forthcoming EU General Safety Regulation (GSR) requirements.
Volkswagen T-Roc (all-new model)
Upcoming Volkswagen small BEV (battery electric vehicle, based on the ID.2all concept, expected 2026 start of production)
All Volkswagen Tayron models sold in Europe
Audi Q3
Seeing Machines technology is being integrated into numerous other VW Group models to ensure compliance with the mid-2026 EU law deadline.
Stellantis
In partnership with the automotive supplier Valeo, Seeing Machines is supplying the DMS/OMS for all new Stellantis vehicles in the EU and UK.
The system is expected to go into production in the summer of 2025 across some "new type" models, and all new Stellantis models will feature it by mid-2026. Specific initial models are not publicly detailed beyond the group-wide rollout plan.

The Technology
The core technology, often the FOVIO computer vision software, uses a camera, frequently integrated into the rear-view mirror assembly (a solution offered by supplier Magna), to track the driver's head and eye movements.
This sophisticated in-cabin sensing can perform over two dozen functions beyond just detecting drowsiness and distraction, including:
Informing emergency services about occupant demographics post-crash.
Optimizing airbag deployment force based on occupant size and position.
Identifying when a driver is handling a mobile phone.
Offering early-stage detection of facial expressions (e.g., happy, sad, surprised).
The technology is crucial for enabling semi-automated driving features, like Super Cruise, by ensuring the driver remains attentive and ready to take control when needed.
