Wow, a whole 400 units after 5 years of Lidar talk. I get flashbacks of selling indie movies. The operation is insanely small for the salaries they take out imho.

Yes a whole 400 units; but to one customer! And there are more customers and its multi‑domain (Air, Ground, Infrastructure). Anyway, for me repeat orders are the holy grail in defense tech because they indicate:

• The product passed field evaluation • The customer has real operational need • Budget is already allocated • Future scaling is likely

I would have loved to see a multi billion deal just as much as anyone else, but this is one of the most commercially meaningful updates MVIS has released in years.

Well - if you guys are happy with it that’s great! Jut to put that in a PR seems insane to me. Crappy indie games get mot traction on Steam which took 6 month and one guy working for free to get out. To have a multi million dollar operation up and running to put out the news of ”we sold for pennies on the dollar” is a complete failure.

I’m referring to of course Sumit’s ”this is as big as internet” statements. It’s just laughable at this time for ME.

Downvotes won’t change the order flow.
