The Smart#1 seems to have two vertical red LEDs on RHS of a pod through steering wheel. Looks very much like the DS8 and Citroen C5.

( The Smart car is shown on the closing clip on the Valeo video posted by Modestguy)

Seeing- Have you found any other cars with the same mirror? Links would be appreciated.

Seize - I did not expect the LEDs to be green and I was expecting to see a left and right set. So i am not sure. Could it be the Valeo product ?

Two green LEDs at 1:37. Pod through steering wheel just like Citroen C5 Aircross

Citroen C5 Aircross. Flashing lights through steering wheel at 0:48s. May be two green LEDs

I double checked on the Audi quote from Proactive.

"The broker also highlights recent wins elsewhere in the business, including a $1.2 million contract for its bus safety tech and the integration of its driver and occupant monitoring systems into the 2026 Audi line-up via Magna.”

The web page includes the statement:

"This record is published on behalf of Seeing Machines Ltd, a paid client of Proactive” . Would they publish such a statement if not true?

The complete Audi range would be approx 2 Million cars. The Audi Q3 would be approx. 200,000

I think this could be 500,000 vehicles /Quarter next year

SEYE also had Audi down for a few Design wins.

"and the integration of its driver and occupant monitoring systems into the 2026 Audi line-up via Magna".

I know Colin Barnden said this was very possible but did it get released officially?

Potentially significant news !

Yesterday it was a Q3 today its A3 !!

Euroncap is now 198 days away. Old stock needs selling and new cars need testing.

If you can assume Porsche why can you not also assume Skoda , Seat, Cupra, and VW Commercials ? One bad apple will spoil the brand image for the whole group.

Could Aviation get sold off to Collins and a large wedge of money get invested back into Automotive ?

June 2022 Major Contract

Valeo will develop and produce the ADAS domain controller capable of managing all data flows from all ADAS sensors in BMW Group vehicles based on the “Neue Klasse” platform.

Could be the start !

I seem to remember them collecting e mail addresses to send out newsletters. I think we got 1 , 2 at most. The list seems to get used for sending out an email about a new RNS.

One for SEE to explain. - Tobii AB has announced a revolutionary advancement in in-car sensing technology through a collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies. By leveraging Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Ride platform, Tobii has developed a next-generation interior sensing system that enhances safety and user experience in vehicles. This new technology positions Tobii as a leading player in the automotive interior sensing market, with their solutions already deployed in over 700,000 vehicles. The collaboration with Qualcomm is expected to meet stringent industry standards and expand Tobii’s market reach.

If SEE is worth 40p to Mitsubishi what is it worth to Nvidia ?
