Seeing Machines launches unit to help scale self-driving programmes

(Sharecast News) - Vision-based monitoring technology group Seeing Machines has announced the formation of a dedicated team to support increasing demand from the autonomous driving sector. The London-listed, Australia-based outfit has established Future Mobility Group, a team that will seek out new commercial opportunities as self-driving vehicle programmes across the world begin to scale, working with customers to embed its driver and occupant monitoring system tech.

The company said that demand has grown for "deeper commercial and technical engagements" for solutions to support global programmes scale safely and effectively.

Seeing Machines said it is the first in its sector to create a specific team focused on supporting the full lifecycle of autonomous vehicle programmes.

"As automated driving technologies scale, interior sensing becomes a foundational capability, enabling safer, more reliable automation and greater trust between humans and machines," said Seeing Machines' chief executive Paul McGlone.

"The establishment of our Future Mobility Group, which leverages existing Seeing Machines resources and platform technology, reflects our long-term strategy to embed human understanding at the centre of next-generation vehicle platforms as our customers in Automotive, Aftermarket and Aviation move towards this."
