What are you even meant to be doing in Sweden? The only thing I know that comes from there is Koppaberg and Koenigsegg, which leads the question. Do all their exports begin with K?

Oh and obviously Ikea

And Volvo! And Saab! (well formerly Saab).

I work here http://www.hegogroup.com/

Sports television graphics, and sports motion tracking. So like individual object tracking by identifying the object in 3D space (the new system uses 4 cameras to make the 3D space) and tracking pretty much every form of data imaginable. Can track a ball, player, etc.

Their stuff is actually used by Sky for all their F1 stuff too. You know when they do that virtual car thing in the studio? That's what this company does, makes the software that can produce stuff like that as well.

Saab is to be reborn as an electric car manufacturer focused on China under rescue plans drawn up by a Chinese-born entrepreneur.

I keep farting, and they are honestly some of the worst smelling ones I have ever produced, my desk is right next to a main walkway in the office too, so I know others can smell it. This is terrible.

So yeh, you decided on a date on coming over?

Morning everyone.
