The new year has started off with great energy, kicking off at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, an essential opportunity to connect with customers and partners, exchange ideas, and experience the ever-evolving trends in advanced vehicle automation, in-cabin and exterior sensing, and next-generation camera and perception technology within the automotive industry.
This year, indie was present both in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) and in a private suite at the Westgate, where we welcomed visitors to explore a wide range of live demonstrations showcasing the maturity, flexibility, and scalability of our solutions. Throughout the show, we presented numerous demonstrations of our vision, radar, and emotion3D AI perception software solutions, highlighting advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) capabilities and automated functionality across automotive, robotics, and mobility applications.
One of our larger demos was our emotion3D full cabin monitoring system, featuring in-depth second-row scene understanding capabilities, demonstrating how our technology extends beyond the driver to enable comprehensive cabin sensing. In addition, visitors experienced our driver monitoring system (DMS) running live on embedded devices through a dedicated CPU-only system, showcasing real-time performance and the highest efficiency in production-relevant environments.
We also showcased our emotion3D DMS software stack running on our newest vision processing system-on-chip (SoC). This was a significant experience, as both the hardware and software were developed in-house, enabling deep integration and end-to-end optimization. The ability to seamlessly combine our software and hardware to deliver the most effective solutions for automotive applications is a key strength and one we are proud to demonstrate.
Across the show floor, indie collaborated with several partners on joint demonstrations, highlighting collaborative and real-world applications. AUO demonstrated a joint solution with our DMS software integrated into a Heads-up Display (HUD) with a seamlessly embedded camera system, while VVDN presented their driver and occupant monitoring system (DOMS) camera running our emotion3D software stack, highlighting the adaptability of our technology across diverse cameras, platforms, and use cases.
In addition, a joint demonstration held with Nextchip featured, for the first time, a complete set of Euro NCAP 2026 OMS features powered by a Time‑of‑Flight (ToF) camera running on the new APACHE6 embedded platform. This milestone reflects a broader shift within the automotive industry toward production-ready, regulation-compliant in-cabin systems operating on embedded hardware.
Throughout the week, the team felt the excitement and energy that is ignited by engaging discussions, live demonstrations, and collaborative exchanges, creating a vibrant atmosphere that truly captured the spirit of CES. We were excited to explore new ways of working with our partners and customers to push the boundaries of driver safety and automation, ADAS, and in-cabin safety, sensing, and comfort.
