Sheila's ability to interpret and respond based on emotional and situational awareness enables her to intervene meaningfully, whether by providing an alert during high-risk situations, offering a distraction-free environment during critical driving moments, or engaging passengers with interactive entertainment.
Sheila's adaptable, modular design integrates seamlessly with OEM's existing HMI systems, providing automakers with a powerful tool for enhancing both safety and occupant satisfaction.
"This recognition of Sheila helps show the world that Smart Eye is not only a world leader in sensing technology, but also care about seamlessly integrating it into vehicles to enhance road safety and the driving experience," said Jay Turcot, VP of AI at Smart Eye. "I believe the recent advancements in Generative AI are the missing link for creating high-quality, context-aware human-machine interactions, and will finally change how vehicles can communicate with drivers. With Sheila, Smart Eye is bringing this shift to life."
