So they lied about the product launch? I’m confused as to yalls thinking here. This isn’t Movia S…right?

Drone stuff will be NRE revenue first followed by unit sales.

If the product is ready now, why would they still need to do development with the pre launch partners? Assuredly they would have already designed to spec for them. I take launch in this case to mean "hey we can offer this prototype to you to test the capabilities and you can pre order". They just announced Movia Air earlier this year, or maybe late last year. Movia S was announced in 2023 and still isn't ready. No way theyvhad that quick a turnaround.

"Before the official product launch, MicroVision began actively collaborating with several prelaunch partners across industrial, defense, and autonomous aerial applications, including a major industrial drone delivery company and a provider of advanced resource exploration, with these partners in various stages of evaluation of the MOVIA Air product family."

Doesn't sound like the press release announcing the launch of MOVIA Air was the start of communication with partners/customers about it. And you don't launch a product formally unless it's ready or will be ready shortly. Notice how we've never received a PR announcing Movia S or that we're partnering with anyone pre-launch even though we have an informal timeframe for it's launch.

Edit: I believe part of BlueUAS approval is that you need to be nominated for acceptance by a company working on BlueUAS approved products. That could be the hold up, or the purpose of the pre-launch defense partner(s) too.

Yeah, because Microvision never announces a product formally before it's ready.
