Stellantis has unveiled its in-house developed #STLA #AutoDrive automated driving technology is ready for deployment. The automaker claims:

- Hands-free and eyes-off functionality available up to 60 km/h (37 mph).

- Level 2 (hands on) and Level 2+ (hands off, eyes on) capabilities at higher speed, including Adaptive Cruise Control and lane centering functions.

The company states AutoDrive is designed to evolve, with potential for higher speed operation up to 95 km/h (59 mph) and off-road capabilities. So in the U.S., of the big three Detroit automakers, General Motors offers #SuperCruise, Ford Motor Company offers #BlueCruise and Stellantis now offers AutoDrive.

Based on video footage from YouTube, the #DMS is probably the Magna International (previously Veoneer) Gen. 2 DMS camera located on the steering column, running DMS software provided by Seeing Machines.

***UPDATE*** Further analysis shows the illumination pattern is slightly different to the Magna Gen. 2 camera. So another option is this is the first DMS program win to reach start of production with Valeo in collaboration with Seeing Machines. The details all line up with the announcement dated 16-Jun-2022, which stated: "The program will target safe level 2-3 semi-autonomous driving and anticipated regulatory requirements." In which case, well done Valeo!

With so much focus on Europe for #GSR and #NCAP, it is sometimes easy to forget the rollout of DMS for supervised automation systems in the U.S.

Mitsubishi paid 4p for 19.9% ! They could gobble up this company for £150 Mill if they wanted.

See management not even buying at rock bottom prices says it all. Would be a huge boost to investors if they bought now, give some confidence to us.

Very painful..

SEE need to cut costs further, they hired way too many engineers in anticipation of this ‘step change’ that never materialised.

Martin Ive has a good track record in finance so it’s his job to minimise spend & keep the lights on until we win new business & start earning better & bigger royalties from GEN3, aviation etc.

I can’t believe they did not sign this deal with Mitsubishi without any guarantees or commitment on GEN3 or intergration into their vehicles before deal was struck??

Money is good to have but not solving the bigger issue of getting to break even.

SEE ..

Well it’s time to rethink strategy before it’s too late.

The same way we are trying to license out GEN3 we should licence out our eye tracking to whoever wants it. There is a step change & we need to be at the forefront of this, we have the best tech so let’s get it out to the masses, before the Chinese & competitors steam roll us first.

I felt the body language & whole presentation by PMG was poor by his standards. I hope He’s prepared to roll up his sleeves & fight otherwise we are all toast!

PMG …

Collins Aerospace- red label/blue label ?? let’s announce integration or at least update on where we are at & whats next etc. this would help us understand opportunities better.

Mistubishi- get them to commit to GEN 3 volume purchase. Even 5000 units pre sale would help boost confidence. To be honest I can’t believe you didn’t agree on this prior to 20% sale ??

Mitsubishi- surely they can commit to some new models having DMS integrated. Where are these Japan contract wins??

Lastly if you really believe in SEE put some of your own money into buying shares so you can feel the same pain as us shareholders. You might then wake up with a sweat & do whatever it takes to turn this ship around & make this a success story.

If there ever has been a wake up call it’s now!

You are losing shareholder money & losing the reputation of us investors. What are you going to do about it ?

We need action, stop this persistent drop in the share price. If you both believed in the growth story then you should at least have some director buys at this share price to show us shareholders you are still fighting to make this company great again.

Martin, let’s look at cutting more. Do we really need so many engineers, fancy offices, consultants, advisors etc ?

PMG - get your act together mate, that last performance on proactive did not install any confidence & we can really do with you stepping up & getting some RFQs over the line. Stop trying to just compete on excellence far superior products as things are moving so fast that PRICE is looking like the only factor & we don’t want smarteye stealing our lunch do we ???

It’s looking like it’s a war of attrition but let’s not lose GM & others to competitors because we think we can command better pricing. Surely let’s compete to capture the lions share of business.

Winner takes all, whatever it takes!

Going to be a lot of angry investors, if there is no change from now till then.

Super news for Super Cruise! MotorTrend Group’s first-ever Best Tech awards crowned Super Cruise as the Best Driver Assistance Program. Smarter driving is here—and we’re just getting started. https://lnkd.in/gt3pHaNp

Is this not relevant to SEE, nothing we can leverage? Are we not the first to intergrate our DMS to super cruise ?

Something simple like ‘proud to be part of this great achievement & support GM in their tech advancement’

Nothing like a SEE RNS to lift the hope of investors lol !

The market as usual are well & truly inexcited ! No mention of possible revenue generation amounts, no mention of deals already signed for Guardian, just a hope & a prayer that this deal could be transformative. No sizzle as usual !

If SEE we’re hoping for a positive reaction in the share price then they failed once again! PR & communications, take note the market is not impressed. You have 2 days to come up with a block buster KPI RNS or you’ll have a lot of disgruntled shareholders facing you on April 2nd.

Let’s face it if Smarteye had announced this RNS they would have gone up by 10% to 20%.

SEE are on watch, although this seems like great news it’s more jam tomorrow than now.

We need something bigger than this to move the stock price, let’s see if tomorrow or Wednesday brings us the news we desperately need !

I rate CB’s Analysis but like he said Smarteye have a huge fan base of believers.

Whether you like this or not Smarteye has a better PR machine. It might be all smoke & mirrors but it’s shot up 35% in two days. Hard to argue with that.

Totally agree David.

PMG I think has become ultra conservative because he got called out saying contracts were imminent’ & now he’s become too reserved in his presentations. I get he called it wrong but we are all past that now so will forgive him if he finally delivers.

Think we are all getting frustrated by the share price, lack of news flow & drab company exposure.

I feel like we are the most conservative AIM company ever, some might even say boring. Let’s have some excitement, let’s start announcing some contract wins & PMG please be bullish on the next set of results!

Big wake up call to SEE management that a well delivered set of figures & hyped up presentation can influence the share price.

Sell more of the sizzle SEE ! All I see is boring articles on guardian 3 ! Nothing on BMW intergration or how the magna mirror is working in the cars at SOP, or the hands free driving in blue cruise or the latest developments with Collins.

What do the SEE marketing team really do ?

I just saw the presentation.

Ok so they hit 2million cars & then saying question is when will they hit 10 million. Very boastful & again dangling that carrot for investors which as usual investors ate it all up & up 20% today.

I’m not a big fan of how they fudge everything to make things look rosier than they are, but at least they sell the sizzle better than SEE do.

PMG & Martin have a chance tomorrow to blow the competition away or just do another presentation full of failed promises.

Over to you SEE management ! I can’t emphasise how important it is to send the right message to long term investors that we have turned a corner. A contract win, a bold statement of hitting 3 million cars on the road would go along way to making a lot of investors happy they stayed the course.

With a new year well under way our Vehicle Technology Manager Tom Leggett shares his thoughts on the developments awaiting the automotive industry in 2025

🔸 Prediction #1 - "Hands Off, Eyes On" will become the norm.

 

From August this year, "hands off, eyes on" driving will be permitted across the EU. We predict this technology will be more widely available by the end of 2025.

It’s vital the public understand that this technology is not fully automated, and that the driver’s eyes must stay on the road ahead. Driver monitoring therefore has a key role to play and will become the norm in 2025 due to the new General Safety Regulation.

Well let’s see if it actually happens & when.

It’s time we held them accountable.

The share price is the number one factor for long term investors. The last 2/3 years have been awful for shareholders, some would have bought at 11p so for it to be under 4p is crippling.

I’m sorry but the buck stops here, the management team need to stop making excuses about the protracted contracts & OEMs reevaluating. Firms are not run by waiting, they need to find new markets for their technology! Plenty of AI money out there that could do with face recognition, eye gaze, billions if data etc. let’s leverage if tech & make money.

It’s an absolute sh#t show at the moment. We Will see if KPIs make any difference this week but management need to stop just cutting deals to dilute shareholders but actually add material growth to the company.

SEE - Collins it’s time we launched our product???

Pilot fatigue, accidental switch press blamed for plane going off runway at Waterloo Region airport

https://www.ctvnews.ca/kitchener/article/pilot-fatigue-accidental-switch-press-blamed-for-plane-going-off-runway-at-waterloo-region-airport/

Martin & PMG should be looking at cutting waste in the organisation.

They went on a massive hiring phase, probably way too many engineers for the work that we need especially when you think AI models can help with a number of tasks.

SEE management needs to be held accountable with the current share price & do what they can to reward long term shareholders.

Martin Ive I hope you are listening.
