We won’t win everything but understandably concerning.

The lack of news is the main worry, all these pending contracts & negotiations …where are they ???

In the UK, **Aldi UK operates roughly 2,000+ logistics vehicles in its own transport fleet — but that includes tractor units (HGVs), trailers, and support vehicles combined, not just trucks alone. A recent fleet-operator ranking lists Aldi Stores among the UK’s largest private fleet operators with about 859 tractor units and ~1,220 trailers (≈2,079 total vehicles).

Nice find Scheimel

Some interesting comments;

Narrator 2:03 – 2:06

Clive Gallivan is Fleet Maintenance Manager at ALDI.

Clive Gallivan 2:06 – 2:18

With the Guardians, it could highlight an issue that the driver’s got that they don’t know and we can address that. We can take the driver off the road. We can rechange his times. There’s lots of opportunities to take there with the Guardian being fitted to the truck.

Clive Gallivan 3:14 – 3:20

We feel safer that their drivers are out there now with this fitted, it’s going to be better for them and better for us.

Narrator 3:20 – 3:39

And now with distraction detection technology becoming mandatory in all vehicles across Europe and as regulations tighten in the United States, Seeing Machines says the Guardian system has real potential to not only create better drivers, but reduce the number of road fatalities right around the world.

Mike Lenné 3:39 – 3:51

You have to study how people behave in the real world. You have to study how drowsiness and distraction unfold. And you have to study how people respond to warnings. And that’s essentially the philosophy that drives the design of our product and service.

Jack Palfreman 3:51 – 3:57

If I can get home safe, other road users are safe maneuvering the traveling around me, then it’s a good feeling.

With the increasing complexity and automation of in-vehicle systems, the risk of driver distraction is growing. To counteract this, we are pleased to see that Austroads has released the Guideline for Incorporating Human Factors in Human Machine Interface (AP-G113-26), providing evidence-based design principles to help reduce distraction and improve road safety.

Providing this guidance matters:

📊 Distracted driving contributes to around 16% of serious casualty crashes in Australia.

👀 Glances away from the road longer than 2 seconds can more than double crash risk.

📱 The rapid expansion of in-vehicle tech means design decisions directly influence safety outcomes.

The guideline outlines 54 Human Machine Interface (HMI) design principles, grouped under 14 key areas, including:

- Device placement

- Visual, auditory and haptic interface design

- Voice interaction

- System navigation and feedback

- Lockouts for high-workload functions

- Warning prioritisation and scheduling

- Interface design of assistive technologies and Automated Driving System

- End-user information and training

A link to the guideline can be found here: https://lnkd.in/gikr5KZ6

At its core, the guideline delivers a clear message - the design of systems and interfaces should: 

- Be intuitive 

- Align with human capabilities and limitations

- Minimise visual, manual, and cognitive distraction

As vehicles continue to evolve into digital ecosystems, integrating Human Factors and Human-Centred Design into HMI development should not be considered optional, but should be seen as fundamental to ensuring safety on our roads.

Thanks Chris saw it flashing at 4mins 12 secs

Definitely SEE tech

But really surprised we can’t put out an RNS to say VW rolling out new models in the mirror.

Really concerned that we are not announcing anything significant to investors. Absolutely no reason to invest if we can’t sell the promise of our technology.

We need a catalyst to get our share pricing going ? What are you doing about it ?

Where are all the contracts you promised us in previous interviews ??

If our OEMs are choosing to extend our technology into new vehicles then tell the market, stop being so silent. When will we ever be so bold enough to tell the world what cars are integrated with our technology. Our share price is a reflection of the poor marketing & communication strategy, that keeps us as a mystery supplier.

Let’s build some momentum, explain to us what is happening to the pipeline of RFQs & make us feel good about our investment.

It really isn’t too much to ask for is it ?

while ai is all the rage, it’s human-ai collaboration that is opening up new opportunities for positive safety experiences.

conversational agents are available in some vehicles today. we applied this idea to impairment using a conversational hmi concept demonstrated at the 2025 madd 45th anniversary event. and now we’re taking it further.

with our partners avr3 and qut (queensland university of technology), we developed an in-vehicle conversational agent that supports driver engagement during assisted driving. this work is being presented at the upcoming acm chi conference on human factors in computing systems (https://chi2026.acm.org/).

our work has won a best paper award, acknowledging that it “exemplifies the kind of forward-thinking, high-quality research” needed. free access to the accepted paper here: https://lnkd.in/gf-nkt-c

importantly, at seeing machines we see this approach extending beyond automotive — as cobots become more common in factories and warehouses, similar human-ai interaction models could support safety and performance for operators in safety-critical environments.

congratulations to a great team.

Also mentions Škoda Auto Epiq

The countdown to the all-new electric ID. Cross has begun.

With the Covered Drive, we have reached the final stage before bringing this new compact SUV to the European market until the end of this year. Journalists are now getting an early look at a near-production vehicle. Still partially covered, but already showing what our next step in affordable electric mobility will look like.

The media response so far has been outstanding.

The ID. Cross brings our core Volkswagen strengths back to the center: quality, intuitive operation, smart technology and excellent space efficiency – at an attractive price point starting from around €28,000.

Built on our latest MEB+ platform and powered by the new Group Unified Cell, it offers fast charging as standard and ranges of up to approx. 436 km (WLTP).

Together with its sister model, the Škoda Auto Epiq, the ID. Cross is part of our Electric Urban Car Family, showing how scale helps make electric mobility more accessible while keeping each brand’s distinct character.

Not a lot I know but if we can get more rollouts like this they will all add up!

It was a pleasure to host Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham at our factory on Saturday as he announced a further 55 zero-emission bus orders, with the promise of more to come.

 

Mr Burnham has been unequivocal in his support not only for Wrightbus but for zero emission transport as a whole, investing more than £66m to modernise and cut emissions from the Bee Network, Greater Manchester’s joined-up public transport system.

 

Speaking from the Wrightbus’ headquarters in Ballymena, where he saw some of the first wave of electric buses come off the production line, Mayor Andy Burnham said:

 

“Working with companies like Wrightbus, we’re showing how public transport can be a catalyst for cleaner air, better health and a stronger national economy. 

 

“With more electric buses arriving in the coming weeks and further orders to follow, we’re moving at pace to modernise our fleet and put Greater Manchester on track for a fully electric bus network by the end of the decade.”

 

Wrightbus Sales Managing Director for UK and Ireland John McLeister hosted the visit alongside Wrightbus Managing Director Christian Reynolds.

 

He said: “Orders like this aren’t just about creating jobs in Northern Ireland, this is about the ripple effect they can have across the whole UK supply chain, strengthening businesses like McKenna Brothers from Middleton in Manchester, who supply the blinds and screens for our buses.

 

"I’m glad to say that while some manufacturing sectors have been in decline in recent years, the UK still has a thriving bus industry of which we’re very proud to be part of, despite the constant threats of imports from overseas."

Before a new vehicle is fully revealed, its character is already defined by the fundamentals of design.

With the upcoming ID. Cross, clear proportions, a strong stance and a carefully balanced surface language shape the identity of Volkswagen’s next compact electric SUV.

Even under camouflage, these elements already express what good automotive design is about: clarity, confidence and everyday usability.

New EU car rule from July 2026: Spain warns drivers about mandatory distraction-detection system

Drivers planning to buy a new car in Spain or anywhere in the EU will soon notice a major change. From July 2026, every newly registered car will have to include a built-in system designed to detect driver distraction and warn the motorist. The technology, known as ADDW (Advanced Driver Distraction Warning), forms part of a wider European road-safety push aimed at tackling one of the biggest causes of accidents: drivers simply not paying attention.

Spain’s traffic authority DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) has already signalled the importance of the measure. According to official accident data, distraction is the leading contributing factor in road incidents, appearing in around 18 per cent of accidents in 2024 and nearly a third of fatal crashes.

Interesting from Chstgpt:

If Mitsubishi deploys Seeing Machines software across:

• automotive

• fleet

• human monitoring platforms

The opportunity could be:

$50M–$120M annual royalty revenue long term.

At typical software multiples (8–12x revenue):

$400M–$1B value contribution.

That alone could justify:

Seeing Machines share price 3–5× higher than historical AIM levels.

⸻

Key takeaway

This webinar strongly suggests:

Mitsubishi is commercialising driver monitoring technology into broader human monitoring platforms.

Because Mitsubishi already:

• owns ~19.9% of Seeing Machines

• collaborates on DMS technology

• distributes their products globally

there is a high probability Seeing Machines IP sits at the core layer.

Which means:

every device or platform using that sensing stack could generate licensing revenue.

⸻

✅ My honest view:

This type of announcement is exactly how platform expansion stories start (Mobileye and Nvidia followed similar paths).

This must be with SEE - Big development

How can we better understand human condition—without asking people to wear anything?

In an upcoming webinar on March 24th, I’ll be introducing Mitsubishi Electric’s Human Monitoring System concept, a camera-based solution originally developed for driver monitoring that enables non-contact measurement of vital signs like heart rate, HRV, and respiration.

We’ll share how these physiological signals can help infer stress and other human states, and discuss how this technology could be applied beyond vehicles—into healthcare, wellness, and safety domains.

We’re also actively looking to collaborate with partners who have camera-enabled hardware or strong ties to health and care ecosystems.

If you’re interested in non-intrusive sensing, real-world deployment challenges, or co-creating new health services, feel free to join the conversation!
