Smart Eye (STO: SEYE) and Polestar (Nasdaq: PSNY) will
demonstrate the Polestar 3 driver monitoring system (DMS) at CES
2023 in Las Vegas in January 2023. Smart Eye’s leading premium
driver monitoring technology is included in Polestar 3 as
standard.
Designed to help avoid accidents and save lives, Polestar 3
features two closed-loop premium driver monitoring cameras and
software from Smart Eye which track the driver’s head, eye and
eyelid movements, and can trigger warning messages, sounds and even
an emergency stop function when detecting a distracted, drowsy or
disconnected driver. This is also critical technology to support
improved standards from governments and safety organisations in the
coming years.
The DMS forms part of the broader driver understanding system
that includes Driver Alert Control, Lane Keeping Aid, Adaptive
Cruise Control and Pilot Assist, amongst others. Data from the
various systems is processed and interpreted by the car’s
centralised computer, powered by NVIDIA.
At CES, visitors will be able to see how the cameras inside
Polestar 3 track the driver’s head and eye movements, and observe
how the AI software can detect the state of the driver in real
time.
“This technology addresses some of the main reasons behind fatal
accidents and can help save lives by prompting the driver to
refocus attention on the road – and can initiate preventive action
when they don’t, or can’t,” says Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar
CEO.
Martin Krantz, CEO and Founder of Smart Eye, comments: “We are
excited to have our fellow Swedish innovators on our stand at CES.
With over one million cars now featuring our advanced driver
monitoring technology, it’s a great opportunity to showcase what
lies beneath the surface in one of the latest cars to join our
family.”
Polestar and Smart Eye are both headquartered in Gothenburg,
Sweden, spotlighting the increasingly important role Sweden’s
second largest city plays in the advancement of automotive
technology and development.
The Smart Eye stand will be in the West Hall at location 6353.
CES opens to the public on 5 January 2023.
Ends.

About Polestar
Polestar Automotive Holding UK PLC (Nasdaq: PSNY) (“Polestar”)
is a Swedish premium electric vehicle manufacturer. Founded by
Volvo Car AB (publ.) (together with its subsidiaries, “Volvo Cars”)
and Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co., Ltd (“Geely”), in 2017,
Polestar enjoys specific technological and engineering synergies
with Volvo Cars and benefits from significant economies of scale as
a result.
Polestar is headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, and its
vehicles are currently available and on the road in markets across
Europe, North America, China and Asia Pacific. By 2023, the company
plans that its cars will be available in an aggregate of 30
markets. Polestar cars are currently manufactured in China, with
additional future manufacturing planned in the USA.
Polestar has produced two electric performance cars. The
Polestar 1 was built between 2019 and 2021 as a low-volume electric
performance hybrid GT with a carbon fibre body, 609 hp, 1,000 Nm
and an electric-only range of 124 km (WLTP) – the longest of any
hybrid car in the world at the time.
The Polestar 2 electric performance fastback is the company’s
first fully electric, high volume car. The Polestar 2 model range
includes three variants with a combination of long- and standard
range batteries as large as 78 kWh, and dual- and single-motor
powertrains with as much as 350 kW / 476 hp and 680 Nm.
From 2022, Polestar plans to launch one new electric vehicle per
year, starting with Polestar 3 – the company’s first electric
performance SUV which launched in October 2022. Polestar 4 is
expected to follow in 2023, a smaller electric performance SUV
coupe.
In 2024, the Polestar 5 electric performance 4-door GT is
planned to be launched as the production evolution of Polestar
Precept – the manifesto concept car Polestar released in 2020 that
showcases the brand’s future vision in terms of design, technology,
and sustainability. As the company seeks to reduce its climate
impact with every new model, Polestar aims to produce a truly
climate-neutral car by 2030.
In March 2022, Polestar revealed its second concept car, an
electric performance roadster which builds on the design,
technology and sustainability ambitions laid out by Precept and
showcases the brand’s vision for future sports cars. The hard-top
convertible presents an evolution of the unique design language
first shown by Precept and emphasises a dynamic driving experience.
The concept further develops the focus on sustainability and
technology, aiming towards greater circularity. Polestar confirmed
in August 2022 that a version of the concept will be produced as
the Polestar 6 electric performance roadster, with launch expected
in 2026.
