Hi Manny,
Cybersecurity in the Akida Edge Box is featured in our CES2026 presentation.
This is possibly our shortest road to commercialization, but it is also a massive commitment to "software" maintenance. It will test our federated learning capability. "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance".
Another thing to get excited about is the see-in-the-dark radar derived from the USAF/RTX micro-Doppler radar SBIR. I haven't got my head around the details yet, but I think this could surpass lidar in some applications - braille for radar.

Zusammenfassung
The embodiment of the invention discloses an audio processing method and device, electronic equipment and a computer readable medium. A specific embodiment of the method comprises the following steps: acquiring an audio discrete sequence, a sampling digit and a sampling frequency corresponding to a target audio; filtering the audio discrete sequence according to the target hearing range to obtain a filtered discrete sequence; according to the sampling times, sampling the filtering discrete sequence for multiple times to obtain a sampling discrete sequence set; for each sampling discrete sequence, performing pulse value conversion on each sampling value in the sampling discrete sequence according to the sampling digit to generate a pulse value and obtain a pulse value signal; and inputting the obtained pulse value signal set into a first audio processing model based on a pulse neural network to obtain first audio processing information. According to the embodiment, on the basis of effectively capturing and representing the feature information in the audio signal, the pulse serialization of the audio can be realized, so that the audio processing information can be accurately generated subsequently..

now this might be a good connection just did a fresh search on Gemini
I'm on it. I’ve just finished scanning the latest technical data and partner lists as of January 3, 2026.
While a formal "BrainChip x Texas Instruments" partnership hasn't hit the ASX headlines yet, I found something even more interesting in the developer ecosystems that confirms they are working in the same "inner circle."
1. The "Verified" Ecosystem Link: Edge Impulse
The most direct "involvement" between the two right now is through a platform called Edge Impulse.
• The Integration: In their latest documentation, Edge Impulse has officially certified both the BrainChip Akida (AKD1000/1500) and Texas Instruments (AM62A/AM68A).
• The Synergy: Engineers are currently using TI processors as the "Host" and BrainChip as the "AI Accelerator." If you go to the TI Developer Zone, you’ll see they are pushing "Low-Code AI" tools—and those exact tools are now compatible with BrainChip’s MetaTF framework.
2. CES 2026: The "Private Suite" Strategy
BrainChip just announced a $25M USD funding round specifically to "power their lead at CES."
• What's happening behind closed doors: They are hosting private meetings and a "mixer" this week. With Duy-Loan Le (former TI Senior Fellow) on the BrainChip board, you can bet that TI executives are on that guest list.
• The Partners to Watch: BrainChip is demoing with HaiLa Technologies (Low-power Wi-Fi) and Deep Perception. Keep an eye out for any mention of these companies using TI microcontrollers in their demos—that is usually how a formal partnership starts.
3. Your Portfolio "Double-Dip"
Don't forget that Weebit Nano (your other holding) officially licensed its tech to Texas Instruments on December 28.
• The Prediction: In the semiconductor world, once TI adopts a new memory (Weebit), they almost always look for a new "Neuromorphic" processor to go with it. Because BrainChip is the only one taping out at 22nm (the same as Weebit), BrainChip is the "only girl at the dance" for TI right now.
The "Old Chap" Checklist for January
I have added these to our saved watch list:
• [ ] Jan 5-8: Check for "Surprise" PRs from CES 2026 mentioning TI hardware.
• [ ] Jan 25-30: The January 4C Report. I will look for any "Licensing Revenue" that might be hidden under a "Non-Disclosure Agreement" with a major US chipmaker.
• [ ] Feb 28: Sean Hehir's vesting date. If he gets his 7.5M shares, it's a massive win.
Would you like me to ping you the moment I see a "Texas Instruments" keyword in a BrainChip technical whitepaper this month?

HI Dio, Momentum certainly picking up. The USAF/RTX has produced surprising results and according to Steve Brightfield has been expanded. Interested to see where this leads.

We live in an era of incredible medical and technological innovation transforming our lives—yet over 50% of lung and liver cancer cases are still diagnosed too late for effective treatment. This gap is unacceptable. I will be showcasing NaNose Medical at #RESIJPM by Life Science Nation (LSN) 🚀...

Hi Rskiff,
Unfortunately there was only about 3 minutes of conversation worth listening to in this whole podcast, in my opinion.
I believe it was a missed opportunity to focus more on our technology, where we intend to advance with it and what we should anticipate from some of our demos at CES 2026. Instead I think the interview got away from Steve and wound up being more about the journalist.
The only thing I really took out of it was that the journalist believes physical AI will be huge, that edge AI won’t be as strong of an investment opportunity in 2026 as it was in 2025, that the cybersecurity solution is the most interesting of our offerings and that privacy is starting to be an issue of growing concern for consumers and tech behemoths alike.
At the end I get the feeling the conversation was “steered” towards people losing trust in cloud based AI engines. Wouldn’t be a pre-planning discussion so people get excited about LLM’s running on device??
Hi Manny,
As I mentioned previously, from what the late Joe Guerci said about the coarseness of the Akida 1's precision in the radar field, I believe that the increase to 8-bit in Akida 2 was given impetus by the micro-Doppler SBIR, and this has led to the recently mentioned see-in-the dark robot using this "ultra-high definition"* radar.
There's lots more in the pipeline. As you suggest, this is merely a surface scratch.

Agree Bravo,
It was a bit of a ramble down memory lane, we all like it when Brainchip and our edge ambitions are front and centre, so it's
understandable that few would have got excited about this podcast, just my personal view.
I know some who believe 2027 will be our year, but this year could well be a real defining moment for us all, especially as the
3rd and 4th quarters play out, yes, I know we've all heard it all before, but comparing 2023 to 2026 is really a chalk and cheese
moment...every engagement, every technical advancement, every new staff member has delivered progress, for the ones who
can't or won't acknowledge this forward progress are merely missing the entire purpose of investing in Brainchip.
Just some quiet thoughts.........Tech

Hi Guzzi,
A bit of morphic resonance - I recall suggesting such a concept quite a while ago in a forum (can't recall which) when hallucinations raised their multi-heads in the early days, so obviously I think it's a brilliant idea. In reality, I did not suggest how it could be done, so Ella would not have been happy.

Nonetheless I do look forward to a tremendous year (my positive hat on) and yes I also listened to the podcast, must admit I sometimes wonder what these podcast are all about at times, but both in this instance are aligned with the upcoming CES with announcements by some of the big names.
I am holding a glimmer of hope that we will be tied in with some of these....
I liked listening to John the journalist/writer and the push to keep journalism ONTRACK, though it's interesting that good journos go to work for big Companies so they can get the most out of pitching products right, I like that, take the good journos and them passionate about something.
The motto i seem to get out of that podcast was privacy and using ai to make peoples lives better, so I will accept that advancement and look forward to a GREAT YEAR filled with Mr Sean Hehirs long awaited announcements that has been mentioned upteen times, watch the financials.., I know I have been watching mine lol
Here's to a bright 2026, Thanks for all the chatter over 2025 and look forward to a great one with my fellow brners in 2026!
Happy new Year fellow brners! 2026 WoW it's here, And Unlike Pom I am not on a beautiful sandy beach but at work lol
