CANBERRA, Australia,
Jan. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Seeing
Machines Limited (AIM: SEE), the advanced computer vision
technology company that designs AI-powered operator monitoring
systems to improve transport safety, is proud to launch Guardian
Generation 3, the latest version of its Aftermarket Driver
Monitoring System (DMS).
Guardian Generation 3 has been independently tested and
confirmed to meet the European Commissions' General Safety
Regulation for Drowsiness Detection, a requirement for all new
cars, vans trucks and buses across Europe from July
2024. Guardian Generation 3 also features refined microsleep
detection and eye-gaze tracking which enhances its ability to
accurately detect distracted driving.
Seeing Machines has been protecting commercial transport and
logistics companies with its aftermarket Guardian solution
globally, with over 14 billion kilometres of recorded travel across
54,000 vehicles. The third generation Guardian hardware also
delivers a range of features that leverage the Company's proven
automotive-grade algorithms and precision optics to deliver premium
performance in the most demanding real-world driving
conditions.
As operators around the world continue to seek out reliable
safety technology for their fleets, so too are commercial vehicle
manufacturers. This enhanced Guardian technology offers compliance
certainty for these OEMs who can now implement the technology via
factory-fit or "after manufacture" and offer their customers the
opportunity to buy fully compliant, road-ready vehicles.
Paul McGlone, CEO of Seeing
Machines commented: "Regulation continues to drive
demand for all of our DMS technology and I am very pleased to see
that we have successfully launched the next generation of our
Guardian solution for commercial transport and logistics companies
as well as commercial vehicle manufacturers. A reliable solution
that only activates when required is so important for driver
adoption and continued road safety. Additionally, supporting
commercial vehicle OEMs with an aftermarket (or factory fit)
solution is critical to their ability to sell compliant vehicles.
And, given the lower annual volume of production of these vehicles
versus cars, I am delighted that Seeing Machines is able to service
this new market segment profitably and continue to drive our
purpose of getting people home safely."
Seeing Machines' Guardian Gen 3 will be on display for private
demonstrations at CES 2024. For further information, please view
