In this newly created role, John will lead Seeing Machines' technology

successfully exploit the growing global adoption of DMS as transport safety
regulations ramp up.
As part of a wider strategic reorganisation of the Company's management
structure, Dr Mike Lenné, a recognised global authority on human factors and
safety, has been appointed as Seeing Machines' inaugural Chief Safety Officer.
Leveraging nearly 30 years of experience at the forefront of human factors
research and implementation, Mike will lead efforts to further deepen and
expand Seeing Machines' global partnerships with customers, research and
technology partners, regulators and safety groups, building close
relationships that will drive forward the Company's continued revenue growth
while making the world's roads and skies safer.
Paul McGlone, CEO commented: "John brings a deep technical expertise to his
new role which aligns perfectly with our goal to shape the future of transport
and get more people home safely. Having worked for decades in the field of
engineering management, he is uniquely well equipped to improve the way we
design, develop and deliver our technology. Alongside Mike's appointment as
Chief Safety Officer, our business has the leadership in place to focus on
successful delivery and on our core mission of improving global safety
outcomes."
John Noble, CTO added: "We have an incredible pool of talent at Seeing
Machines, and I'm delighted by the opportunity to lead our technical team. We
will empower our experts, and therefore our customers, by refining our proven
engineering processes to reflect the growing role of AI and synthetic data in
our products, and to better support rapid and iterative delivery. I look
forward to defending our reputation for quality, and ensuring we are viewed as
an open and collaborative partner."

across 8 programs with major brands like General Motors, Ford, Mercedes Benz,
