In a note to clients, HSBC’s analysts pointed out that the two-thirds drop in Flybe’s share price since its profit warning on 17 October appears overdone, with the value of its assets ignored They said that on a per-share basis, they value Flybe’s slot portfolio at 43p and its owned fleet at 79p, with balance sheet debt of 26p. The analysts added: “We think the market is uncertain over the prospects for the business in the light of unit revenue challenges into winter as competitive capacity increases from Belfast and on London-Scotland routes. Rising fuel costs and the roll-off of GBP/USD hedges are also weighing on sentiment.”

This is what HSBC analysts some 9 was ago. Nov 6th And Since then fuel dropped 20%. Slots worth 43p on own?

There’s always something that can be done, surely.

All these stories will help prompt lawmakers to get it sorted and the process will help the safety people’s case. https://www.ajc.com/blog/commuting/georgia-distracted-driving-law-have-you-put-down-your-phone/F8S9knZPC5gPbh10lSf1nO/ https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.news-journalonline.com/news/20190106/lawmakers-renew-push-to-strengthen-floridas-distracted-driving-laws%3ftemplate=ampart

Red Monday morning in Canberra so someone in the the office from 7am. Who is the PR, media, online, marketing person? Let’s hope they get SEE tied to the autoblog award for supercruise being given out at Detroit on Monday.

Who was the Company veoneer mentions in here? I thought june was our last auto win mention. https://www.veoneer.com/en/veoneer-selected-global-automaker-develop-and-produce-advanced-driver-monitoring-system

Seeing2020 Yes good point. GM putting super cruise in all models by next year but iam sure they and other OEMs will do that in cheaper models. The markets driven by legislation and hopefully not long to wait for this to come in. It’s coming in the uk and Iam sure rest of world this year or so. With DMS in the mainstream Iam sure this will push the legislators to put it to the top of the list. The Automated and Electric Vehicles Act is the main piece of legislation relating to provision of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, as well as laying out the groundwork for future regulation of autonomous vehicles, such as by ensuring that drivers are covered by their insurance policies even when using autonomous modes.

Great to see the media disapointed if no supercruise in a model. This should fuel GM and others to make sure they get their systems in to get favourable press from the industry writers. Great to see headlines in a new car. What no supercruise. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.motor1.com/news/300873/2020-cadillac-xt6-revealed/amp/

Seeing2020 Best news I’ve read today so far. Let’s hope back then Ts crossed and Eyes dotted. The day a contract win is announced by someone else is the day the lawyers send a letter saying can use for a per unit fee. I did see some of SEE earlier patents on individuals names. Are they all owned by Company? Hope so.

Sgreen The patent side really interests me on who actually owns what and what protection is there. So many patents owned by so many individuals and corporations it’s a complex web. I would expect licensing agreements to those using it payable to the patent owners rather than expensive litigation to try stop competitors. Like any buzz tech everyone wants a piece of the action, after a couple of years most of these would off fell by the wayside. We are years ahead of experience and technology advancements over the years and the free shares given out now really make sense to me. How much poaching in the industry behind the scenes and how much tapping up was going on. Let’s hope with a nice few shares tucked away everyone is focused on the end game.

Phil I think Tesla have a serious competitor in BYTON to start but everyone else coming aswell. The winner will be the one with the best mileage, the best tech and the best value for money. BMW VW and BYTON will be snapping on their heels. We have byton and BMW signed up so will VW want to be competing without the best DMS to compete. Probably not. So let’s hope they join the SEE party. On another note with DMS and Battery being brought into the mainstream we should be looking for companies in the market that will be building the charging stations and supplying the batteries. This is about to explode so anyone know any companies out there ready to make money out of the revolution on these elements?

Phil

GM are going for a model to compete with Tesla head to head.

Great to bring dms into the mainstream.

Baxter sure we can fix that for you with a fat wadge in our pockets lol

Seeing2020

Ive never wished for someone to be right about something more than this. Still got a sneaky feeling Toyota may come 1st though?

This month got car shows in USA, (many various)Singapore, Vienna, Tokyo, India, Canada, Italy & Belgium, too name but a few. Showing off future models and Tech. Surely stuff has to come out.

Seeing2020

Yes great idea :) Do you think if some then loose all their money in Vegas they might moan a bit though lol

November was in Vegas last, always up for that place. Especially holding a big fat cheque.

Count me in Sebs Baxter & Steve sitting at the bar mosning about the price of cocktails. Sebs drinking all the cocktails Lewbo amd See2020 showing us another great find that will Rippen in the future Golden boy telling us about his adventures in the jungle trading shares while sitting on a elephant Can’t wait for the party to finally meet everyone.

See2020 Be nice to see who SEE are talking to and what’s in the pipeline. Surely this month of launches some newsflow to come. Not happy that others are getting the awareness more than us atm. Might be their plan keep head below the firing line. One DW this month would be good, hopefully more. Now DMS is in the mainstream has to be some funds looking at investing or some big boys looking for a smaller company to gobble up. We only want £2 billion I guess for a buy out to buy into many years of R&D and contracts. Loose change for Apple or Cisco to become the premium supplier overnight.

Seeing2020 Let’s hope it becomes seeing2019! Lots going on so could be news as something unveiled at the show. New Monitors in the Car Automotive suppliers are getting into the act as well, to help make sure drivers are keeping their eyes on the road. Nuance, an artificial-intelligence company that works with automakers like BMW, says its system, still in development, can sense the emotions of the driver using facial recognition and voice-pattern analysis. The car may be able to ask why you’re stressed when you climb inside, or it may ask what’s wrong if you suddenly become upset in the middle of the drive. It can compare your emotional state to what’s happening outside the vehicle, such as traffic conditions. What does the Nuance system do with that information? If it determines that the driver is concentrating, it can keep alerts and other non-critical driver inputs at a minimum. If it senses you're stressed, it will keep its requests short and to the point. If it thinks you're distracted or drowsy, it will propose taking over parts of the driving task. Computer chip maker Nvidia is also working on a driver-monitoring system, known as DRIVE IX, that tracks the driver’s gaze and hand movements. It, too, can tell whether a driver is drowsy or distracted and provide alerts or take corrective action if needed. Nvidia’s system also uses cameras to produce augmented reality for head-up displays that add to the world outside the car. That can result in warnings like flashing alerts on the windshield about fast-approaching vehicles, or the presence of slow-moving pedestrians on the horizon. Veoneer, a tech startup company spun off from airbag and seatbelt-maker Autoliv, is zeroing in on the tricky handoff between a human driver and a car that’s capable of driving itself in some conditions. Using cameras and microphone, Veoneer’s test vehicle reads moods, watches for distractions, and measures how quickly a driver notices what's happening on the road. At the end of a trip, the driver can be scored on their driving skill. The system, which is still in development, could also provide a graph showing when the driver was attentive and not attentive, and when the driver was slow to notice, say, a construction zone or a fast-approaching emergency vehicle. Ideally, drivers would be motivated to get better scores and become safer drivers. Don’t forgot Automotiveworld show aswell. Our Japanese friends are there.

So what’s the next generation of supercruise? GM also said it will use the next generation of the Super Cruise system, but the company didn't go into detail about what that will entail. Currently, the advanced Level 2 self-driving system is similar in concept to Tesla's AutoPilot system. It first became available last year in the 2018 CT6 sedan. It uses various sensors and cameras that read the road ahead and control the car's braking, acceleration, and steering.

https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1120868_entire-cadillac-lineup-to-get-super-cruise-by-end-of-2020 In 2018, Cadillac launched the world's first hands-free driver-assist system, giving consumers a glimpse of a self-driving future. To date, the system has only been offered on the soon-to-be-dead CT6 full-size sedan. On Friday during its Capital Markets Day presentation, Cadillac announced Super Cruise will spread to the automaker's entire lineup by the end of 2020. Let’s hope our PR dept put some beef and substance in these stories..... That's slightly less than two years away, and it would seem to be a tough task to incorporate across an existing lineup. However, by the end of 2020 every vehicle in Cadillac's lineup will be new or refreshed. That is the impressive, and notable, news that will enable Super Cruise to roll out to the entire lineup in such short time.
