NOVELIC Partners with Global DMS Leader Smart Eye to Develop Next-Generation Camera and Radar In-Cabin Monitoring Systems21.9.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release

BELGRADE, RS / ACCESS Newswire / September 21, 2026 / NOVELIC, a Belgrade-based innovator in mmWave radar solutions, announced a strategic partnership with Smart Eye, a global leader in Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) and Interior Sensing AI, to provide OEMs with a well-rounded feature set that satisfies the upcoming Euro NCAP requirements for driver and occupant monitoring.
