I too remember this being said. Can't say for sure that it was during his CEO speech at the AGM but I am pretty certain that is the case.

@TechGirl did you record the AGM?

Hi Sera,

Yes I did & JK200SX uploaded it to youtube, see link below.

I remember Sean saying that to.

IOT Tech Expo

POWERING THE CONNECTED WORLD WITH IOT

17-18 MAY 2023

SANTA CLARA CONVENTION CENTER, CA


This event may be something to keep an eye on as we get closer to May.

There's a decent list of exhibitors which I imagine will be exhibiting their IoT technologies.

Might be worth some time reviewing as the technologies are uncovered to see if akida could fit within any of the use-cases exhibited.

As automobiles continue their evolution towards electrified, connected, software-defined vehicles, Visteon has continued to align its technologies to those trends particularly with digital cockpit technologies. As part of this alignment, Visteon has sought to create complete cockpit solutions by utilizing latest silicon technologies, integration of vision features, enabling the digitization of the automobile.
“Vehicles and mobility are rapidly changing, and Visteon is developing the technology that will allow automakers to create exciting and compelling in-vehicle experience,” said Sachin Lawande, president and CEO, Visteon. “Visteon’s award-winning cockpit technologies are developed holistically, enabling automakers to provide comprehensive set of differentiated features while accelerating time to market.”
This method of holistic development of all of Visteon’s technologies – high-performance display solutions, high-performance cockpit electronics and connected services – enable turnkey solutions for all mass markets and premium vehicles.
Visteon’s display solutions create an immersive user experience, incorporating consumer technologies, active privacy and sunlight readability, all while drawing very low power. These features come to life in two Visteon digital cockpit platforms, the Lightscape Panorama Display and the Command & Control Display, which each captured a 2023 CES Innovation Award.
Visteon’s digital cockpit solutions on display during CES include:
  • Lightscape Panorama Display is an advanced pillar-to-pillar, multi-display which includes numerous Visteon technology solutions that enable superior image quality and interaction
  • Command & Control Display is a driver-centric, technology-forward dash display that blends the lower display into the surrounding materials when the display is inactive. It wakes into a fully reconfigurable surface on the approach of a user’s hand
  • One Watt Display delivers enhanced perceptual quality of displays with dramatic power savings
  • Active Privacy limits driver distractions from passenger cockpit content, is compatible for system-level approaches for managing content and is scalable to any size, aspect ratio or resolution
  • TrueColor Image Enhancement dynamically adjusts screen images to improve image quality, overcoming brightness and glare to improve the legibility of safety information
  • SmartCore cockpit platform architecture represents a shift in electric vehicle architecture to a computing platform, with applications from entry-level to high-end cockpit design with multiple silicon choices
  • SmartCore Gen 4 cockpit comes with driver and surround view monitoring for increased safety, adaptive and personalized user interface, multi-display entertainment and gaming, AI based voice assistant, augmented reality navigation and many more compelling features
  • AllGo Connected Services offer a suite of cloud based software services including over the air update, subscription management and Automotive App Store

Not sure if it has already been discussed/documented, but is there anything regarding either Prophesee Metavision, or Valeo's Lidar paired with Augmented reality?

I imagine that sort of tech, especially the Event Based Sensor from Prophesee, would allow for amazingly fast identification and then tracking of things like signs and trees and pedestrians etc, that if the HUD was using Augmented reality could be extremely interesting.

Another thought is some theme park rides, use a combination of projectors and screens and real life objects to run a version of augmented reality.
I'm guessing the speed of these sensors mean that could use VR headset's that could create really responsive images.

Been a little confused reading these forums lately and would love to know what I am seeing wrong.
I thought that we have enough money to keep going without the LDA agreement therefore assume something fairly big on the way in terms of revenue or why not wait 6 months when I assume revenue should speak for itself and the share price would be a lot higher.
People talking of little revenue compared to the type of chatter before previous quarters surprises me. Is this to lower expectations therefore revenue like last quarter is less of a talking point or to emphasise the increase if we (🤞🤞🤞) turn a profit?
If nothing substantial comes out before the LDA thing finishes in a couple of months would a serious question to be asking the CEO come AGM time be why the trigger was pulled early?
Happy to discuss in private.

The more, the merrier!

Check out what Sachin Lawande (CEO Visteon) had to say in October 2022 about what we can expect from some of Visteon's products in the cockpit that are under development.

Since "voice interaction" is such a tremendous part of the focus, it's quite a stroke of luck for us that the BrainChip/Mercedes partnership demonstrated via the "Hey Mercedes” voice control system in the Vision EQXX that our technology is five to ten times more efficient than conventional voice control technology.🥳

(Extract Only - Sachin Lawande - CEO Visteon)

If we look maybe three years down the road, what can we expect to get from some of your products in the cockpit that are under development?
What I can say is that you can expect in ... about five years ... a tremendous focus on improving the voice interaction with the car. The car will effectively talk to you. Today, you push buttons, knobs, and have moved to touch, but the next level of interaction will be voice.
Will the technology for voice recognition ever become accent-agnostic and therefore more efficient?
Hundred percent. This is one of the things that we have been working with them on. And Google, of course, does have a tremendous amount of data. So even in India, as you know, there are multiple languages, let alone accents. The voice interaction will be a terrific first step. The second step is using AI to enter cameras around the vehicle and inside the vehicle, you will be able to, for example, see on your phone, how your son or daughter is driving somewhere on the road, and actually interact with them and see what they see outside and be able to help them navigate. So the phone and the car will merge into one.
So, what does that mean for industry regulations with respect to telecom privacy, data and more?
The industry will have to evolve. We are putting the technology underpinnings of it together working with Amazon. If you look at our personal computer devices – we have the phone, the tablet, the computer, and we have the television, right? There's nothing that you can do with a tablet that you cannot do on the phone, except that the tablet gives you a little more convenience when you have more downtime. When you go to the PC, it's more of a content-creation device. And the television is starting to fade away because it's nothing more than a display.
Now the car is an interesting device that's going to evolve along the same trajectory as the phone, tablet, and the car. So, there are certain driving-related restrictions, which means you cannot pay too much attention to the display and read it as you drive or touch all parts of the screen because the screen is going to be very large. So, the modality of interaction is going to be what's changing. But a lot of the content that you have on the phone and the tablet is going to appear on the cover to make that whole experience better and safer. And that's a big change going through the industry.

Nice find Bravo :)

Hi @TechGirl, that was actually a quote by "yours truly" (he-he-he!), but I can see how that looks like I was quoting Sachin, so I've edited my post to avoid any confusion.

But, by all means feel free to quote me if you wish.😝

$1.4 mill for this 4c

I'd like to think 118k was purely IP sales

So, I'll stir the pot a little. Reading back the last few days, I've seen discussions on SP, revenue and LDA. So looking at time frames and other bits and pieces, without people getting nasty, what are peoples thoughts?

Here are mine. I'd be very disappointed if the LDA call comes to time and no good news has come forward. (price sensitive ASX ann) If the SP hasn't moved, I'm ok with that, it'll do what it does. I'd just be disappointed they made the call so early without some good news. AKIDA 2000 or decent 4c for example.

Regarding the 4c, IMO should be better than the last one but $500-$1 miil would make me happy. That would show progress. I think the war, covid and financial markets are a good enough reason for slower than expected progress.

Arm, Intel or anyone using our IP without paying a licence fee would be unacceptable. The only way these people should be allowed to use our IP is by buying the licence or using a third party that already has. It was mentioned earlier than someone wouldn't mind if those companies didn't. I can guarantee you that Megachips wouldn't see it the same way!.

Finally, if we don't get another licence deal or lumpy revenue before the AGM, has Sean not "done his job" and should he be judged accordingly after being so bold? I believe he wanted to be judged and using poor markets can't be an excuse as this should be taken into account before making such comments. On the other hand, if we do see another licence and some lumpy revenue before hand he should be judged accordingly with holders singing in the streets holding up signs with God save KING Sean on them. IMO have fun, and be kind.

Reasonable sort of commentary @skutza. I'd be happy to see some revenue but not pinning any great hopes on it as I think more likely in the back end of calendar 2023 now. I was hopeful of a bit earlier but strikes me that the job of closing deals is a bit harder than we, and possibly the company, expected. We can blame world conditions and I'm sure that's part of it - but closing deals seems to be tough and then there's long lead time for revenue flows. None of it bothers me that much - there is clearly progress from public comments of partners and the Intel connection really put some extra foundations under my investment thesis. So it's all down to patience.

If the 4c has low revenue, or even modest revenue, I still think there'll be a major push down of the price. We've seen it before and we'll see it again. I just hope we don't see people getting sucked in by it. If only I'd won Powerball I could sit under the funnel and gulp up millions of shares as they are thrown into the hopper!

Again I'll say that we only need $20m per annum to breakeven. Doesn't need too many royalty deals to make that happen over the next year or two. Good luck to all.
