Smart Eye and Green Hills Software Demonstrate Integrated Driver Monitoring and Mixed-Criticality Platform for Modern Vehicle Architectures At Ces 2026 Smart Eye and Green Hills Software announced a joint demonstration at CES 2026 highlighting how safety-critical driver monitoring can be seamlessly integrated into modern, consolidated automotive software-defined vehicle architectures. Together, Smart Eye and Green Hills are demonstrating a production-ready foundation for OEMs and Tier 1s seeking to accelerate the development and deployment of safe and secure driver monitoring on modern, software-defined vehicle architectures. The combined solution helps automakers reduce integration complexity, shorten validation cycles, and meet the growing safety and regulatory requirements for driver monitoring, including the EU General Safety Regulation (GSR) and the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP). Built on production-grade software, the demo showcases Smart Eye's driver monitoring software running alongside a digital instrument cluster on a single automotive engine control unit (ECU) powered by Green Hills Software's ASIL-certified INTEGRITY®? real-time operating system (RTOS). The solution demonstrates how mixed-critical applications - like Smart Eye's safety-critical DMS - can run safely and securely on the same compute platform while maintaining proven isolation and freedom-from-interference from other areas of the platform. To illustrate this architecture in action, the demo is part of a network of multiple in-vehicle ECUs, a cloud-connected gateway, and a driving simulation environment. Real-world driving events generated by the CARLA simulation are fed into the vehicle network, triggering visual alerts on the instrument cluster. When Smart Eye's software detects driver distraction, the system broadcasts a DMS event across the network, prompting the cluster to display a " driver break needed" or "attention" warning on the cluster panel. These events are simultaneously logged by the gateway ECU and transmitted to the cloud by the gateway ECU for analytics and diagnostics. The demonstration also highlights Green Hills Software's ASIL -certified next-generation development environment, giving developers a unified view across all applications and ECUs. In an intuitive graphical timeline display, engineers can trace events, monitor network messaging, and debug interactions across the cluster, gateway, zonal controller, and driver monitoring applications - significantly increasing developer productivity while reducing development and integration time. Smart Eye and Green Hills Software will showcase their integrated automotive platform at CES 2026, January 6-9, in the Green Hills Software booth #6227 in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. For OEMs and partners interested in a demonstration, meeting requests can be submitted at the demonstration. Annuncio • Jan 03

New Risk • Aug 16
New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 6.8% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr218m free cash flow). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (kr114m net loss next year). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.8% average weekly change).

New minor risk - Profitability The company is currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over the next 2 years. Trailing 12-month net loss: kr76m Forecast net loss in 2 years: kr33m This is considered a minor risk. Companies that are not profitable are more likely to be burning through cash and less likely to be well established. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. Without profits, the company is under pressure to grow significantly while potentially having to reduce costs and possibly needing to take on debt or raise capital to remain afloat. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (kr33m net loss in 2 years).

OmniVision Technologies, Inc., Ambarella, Inc., and Smart Eye Partner on Automotive Industry’s First Combined Driver Monitoring and Videoconferencing Camera Solution OmniVision Technologies, Inc., Ambarella, Inc., and Smart Eye announced in advance of AutoSens Detroit the automotive industry’s first complete solution for dual-mode camera applications. This joint solution simultaneously monitors drivers while capturing vehicle occupants for one-way videoconferencing. It features OmniVision’s automotive industry-first OV2312 image sensor, with a dual-mode global shutter that captures both RGB color images and IR images under low-light conditions. These dual captures are then processed simultaneously by Ambarella’s CV22AQ CVflow® computer vision processor, which runs Smart Eye’s algorithms to analyze the driver’s state and alert the vehicle to any unsafe indicators, such as drowsiness. The companies worked together to integrate and fine tune this solution, which is available as a complete reference design, allowing automotive designers to focus on differentiating their final application while simplifying the overall design effort. The companies are currently in discussions with automotive OEMs regarding the implementation of this reference design in upcoming car models. This joint solution enables the full range of driver and cabin monitoring implementations, from safety applications to augmented reality displays and interior sensing with deep neural networks and AI. The solution’s one-way video conferencing allows remote conference participants to see those in the vehicle, while the vehicle receives only audio to reduce driver distraction. The OmniVision OV2312 is a dual-mode automotive image sensor, enabling single-camera driver state monitoring and viewing applications, such as the videoconferencing capability in this reference design. It remains the automotive industry’s only RGB-IR global shutter image sensor, while offering the smallest size in its class of 2MP sensors. The OV2312 provides advanced ASIL functional safety and near-infrared (NIR) light performance of 14% quantum efficiency at the 940nm wavelength, along with excellent modulation transfer function (MTF). Its power consumption is also industry leading, consuming just 190mW in typical conditions. The end result is that the OV2312 reduces the number of image sensors in the system, saving both power and space by eliminating the need for multiple rolling shutter sensors. The OV2312 is the latest member of OmniVision’s automotive global shutter image sensor family. It is pin-to-pin compatible with the OV2310 and OV2311 family members, which provides designers with the flexibility to choose the best feature set for their needs. Ambarella’s scalable CVflow processor family provides a full range of systems on chip (SoCs) across multiple performance and price points. The company’s powerful image signal pipeline (ISP), with support for OmniVision’s dual-mode RGB-IR color filter arrays, enables high-accuracy detection and monitoring, even in low-light, in-cabin environments. Its high dynamic range (HDR) processing extracts maximum image detail in high-contrast scenes, further enhancing the chip’s computer vision capabilities and the performance potential of Smart Eye algorithms. Smart Eye’s DMS solution offers eye tracking software for integration in passenger cars and other vehicles to facilitate better safety and other functions that improve the user experience. By carefully studying eye, facial and head movement, Smart Eye’s interior vehicle algorithms can draw conclusions about a person’s alertness, attention and focus. This joint reference design, including a demo board equipped with the three companies’ pretuned devices and software, is expected to be available to qualified customers later this quarter.
