In this FOCUS session, experts from Mercedes-Benz, Yole Développement, Lumentum and The Ojo-Yoshida Report will explore the use cases that represent the biggest challenge for imaging and sensing technology. Broad lighting and environmental scenarios mean illumination, dynamic range, field of view and other factors are all tested to the limit. These difficult use cases must be solved for OEMs to comply with future regulations and NCAP requirements.

You can watch the whole session LIVE for no charge, or catch up later on-demand at a time that suits you.
Initial thoughts, we wanted for bod and shareholder interests to be more aligned, well we’ve now got it, which is a good start.
On a quiet Sunday evening…A lot of time and effort went into preparation of the 35 page highly technical white paper. It was written by, proof read and agreed by some very clever and highly astute people, all of whom are undoubtedly time precious.
Why was the white paper written?
Who was it written for?
Was the timing of publication significant?
The OEMS already know the details, and our competition would understand even more, it certainly wasn’t for our benefit since without Colin Barnden adding a translation most of us would still remain in the dark, so why…
For me the possibility of it being due diligence fodder cannot be ignored, nor can it be beyond the realm of possibility that it’s aimed at potential licensees for new directions and opportunities. Other suggestions are welcome…
Seems too good an opportunity …

Seeing-2020, “ I have also studied the ARM story and this article by Colin is immense.”
Well said, but Perhaps a brief précis for those not familiar with ARM might further highlight our potential as mentioned in colins’ excellent article.
Schlemiel we all feel the same frustration, I like to remind myself that one of our very own -chairman Kate has recently topped up with her own money, and is in the position to know far more than me about company progress and prospects. That information gives us all 3 million reasons to keep smiling.
Highside- Re god… I understand that his son is a pretty good carpenter… but to the best of my knowledge he’s not known as a geologist, unless of course you count the creation thing …. I believe you must be thinking of st Jude the apostle…(ok I’ll save you the google trip) , he’s the patron saint of desperate cases and lost causes… but quite what that’s got to do with our investment…
An unhealthy addiction, well I certainly recognise that sentiment, and it most certainly includes me. I put it down to having researched a great deal both here and elsewhere but not finding another opportunity that even comes close.
Safestocks will be be able to help you answer that,
My advice to Seeing Machines: “Don’t sign any pre-nup until you’ve seen the size of their respective wallets. You’re worth at least £10 billion!”
Just remember - as I don’t want to de ramp, that this is dated oct 2021 and not 2024

Preparing For Single Pilot Operations: Collins Aerospace’s Perigon
https://simpleflying.com/single-pilot-collins-perigon/
What it’s capable of doing will be down to the airlines to decide, but Avritch gave us some ideas. For example, Perigon could be used for incapacitation detection, not only detecting that the pilot is incapacitated but also selecting an airport, contacting ground control, and undertaking the approach and landing all by itself..
The Agreement positions Seeing Machines to work closely with Collins to jointly market co-developed solutions across the Aviation industry to deliver its eye-tracking technology solutions to Commercial Air Transport, Business, Military, Rotary Wing, General Aviation and Flight Training customers to address improved safety and efficiencies for both pilot training and flight operations.

Car manufacturers (oem), airlines etc tie up everything with nda’s, this link is a best guess attempt from one of our most respected LTH to try to demonstrate the ties we have.

Posted in November, safe stocks is interesting reading for would be / potential investors.

Whilst I would agree that the ceo targets are not overly taxing, consider what both he and the wider company under his leadership has achieved.
I personally have no concerns over his remuneration and look forward to witnessing what else he can achieve for the company that we all own a part of. Talent once recognised should be both rewarded and retained.

AGM notes, (abridged) Kate Hill and John Murray re elected. Kate Hill reported…It’s been a good year, significant progress across aviation including ****pit. Euro ncap testing is now closely aligned with see tech. Auto demand growing significantly. We are substantially further along the road (as a company) than we were a year ago, under the leadership of the ceo and his leadership team. No questions asked in reference to the AGM.

NEW InCabin Conference & Exhibition
InCabin
15 SEPTEMBER | BRUSSELS, BELGIUM
The brand-new event from the organisers of AutoSens. InCabin brings together experts in automotive in-cabin technology with the knowledge and connections to advance interior monitoring
for safety, comfort, and convenience. InCabin is a technical conference by engineers, for engineers discussing and showcasing the latest innovations in this high-growth sector.
Congratulations to everyone involved in the continuing success on site. The progress should be universally applauded, it’s a great start to the week.
Not yet able to find any updates on project connect…but did find a first mention of of the Airbus disruptive ****pit ( disco ) both are highly significant for anyone who specialises in driver and pilot monitoring…

Airbus‘ Project Connect will facilitate a reduced ****pit crew member capacity
Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific and European Airbus have initiated Project Connect, where a minimum number of ****pit crew members (2 pilots) are required to fly a long-haul aircraft. This reduced ****pit crew member capacity will replace the existing capacity of 3-4 pilots present on all long-haul flights. Project Connect will give the liberty of only 1 pilot to be present in the ****pit in rotation. When one pilot breaks for rest, the other can take the former’s place in the ****pit.
Cathay Pacific established that it was brainstorming methods to facilitate the appointment of reduced-crew members.
German airline Lufthansa also stated that it had worked on a similar program.

We know that we have an existing and long lasting relationship with a “leading Australian airline. “ Ultra long flights will need a pilot monitoring system…
Ultra long-haul flights from London to Sydney? They're still in the works, says Qantas CEO.
a Qantas plan to operate the world's longest nonstop flights, which would allow travelers to fly between London or New York to the eastern Australia cities of Sydney and Melbourne.
In an interview with CNN's Richard Quest, Qantas CEO Alan Joyce says the airline plans to revisit the development of these ultra long-haul routes in 2022, with an aim to launch in the following two to three years.

Cf not so much stepped down as “ousted in favour of a trusted company man”. According to the Daily mail he’s been moved to “special projects” but I thought he was already in charge of a pretty special project… and then sold it off on the cheep!
I don’t expect many will weep at this report… certainly not here anyway!
