Well at this stage of the game, let's hope something happens "overnight" ayeLooking forward to the next 4C as most would be. Peter and Anil are happy to hand over the reins and advise in my opinion. Step back and watch a bit more, knowing what’s in the winds

Was flicking around on Lockheed and this LinkedIn popped up in a search.
Was just interesting to see what a Toyota investor arm Exec thought and I noticed Recogni. Part extract below.
Did a TSE search and saw that @goodvibes picked up on them via RT in 2023. Just never know with Rob's likes

A founder and general partner at Toyota’s investor arm, Jim Adler began his career as a Lockheed Martin rocket engineer before eventually becoming an investor. He joins us for VC Wednesdays.
How does your background as a rocket engineer help as a VC? When you're investing in deep tech, having a technical background is super helpful. Your natural approach is to ask: Does the technology work? What are its potential pitfalls? Does it violate any fundamental laws of the universe, like the second law of thermodynamics or perpetual motion machines? That’s the first qualifier of any of my investments. I'm a big Charlie Munger fan, who said that think about all the things that can go wrong, address them, and you have a much better chance of things going right.
What’s your investment thesis and biggest focus areas in 2024? You can’t centrally plan innovation. We believe that the dynamism of the startup ecosystem forges the future. Our mission is discovery, in terms of what's next for Toyota and the market. We invest out of two funds: our frontier fund, which focuses on deep tech, autonomous mobility and robotics; and our climate fund, dealing with things like carbon capture and storage, renewable energy. AI is one of our biggest focus areas across both funds, but the next wave will actually be more valuable than the current generative AI wave.
How so? I’m in the Yann LeCun-Judea Pearl school of thought, in that there are three rungs of AI — seeing, doing and imagining. We're just in the early innings. What's going to power the next rungs? New computing. So, we're looking at neuromorphic computing. There will be next-gen compute and algorithms that'll be able to do much more with much less energy than today. We have a company called Recogni that provides high throughput and low power for edge inference applications. We’re also thinking about how to use AI to discover new materials for direct air capture and drug discovery, for example, through Orbital Materials.

Yeah looks like 2030, Why haven't they signed any more IP licences I will agree that the time lines have changed. But let's step back to 2021. 1. Revenue projected in late 2022. 2. Breakeven 2023. Now what kinda activity and partnerships did we have in 2021? Was Akida being advertised...

I’m not sure ?
To be honest I didn’t pay much attention to who was on stage I was rather pissed off that I didn’t win it ,
I was ok with it after a few beers & took the judges comments onboard which I’m happy to share
“ your from Melbourne “ ( solid point )
“ you once stated that grade 5 was the best 3 years of your life ( yeah so what )
Always next year

Research Vision and Interests
The main goal of CPHS lab is to develop strategic and trustworthy cyber-physical-human systems which improve safety, reliability, trust and security in human-machine interaction. In this regard, the research team makes scientific and technological advancements in the areas of machine learning, human behavior prediction/modeling, game theory and multi-agent control. The work carried out in this lab is supported by diverse funding agencies such as National Science Foundation, The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (CDC-NIOSH) and Boeing.Facilities
Cyber-Physical-Human Systems Laboratory (in short, CPHS lab) is directed by Dr. Sid Nadendla and is housed in Room 101 (Total area: 626 sq. ft) in the Computer Science department at Missouri University of Science and Technology (in short, Missouri S&T). The lab has six high-performance Dell-Precision workstations which are equipped with a wide range of hardware and software capabilities, including MATLAB, Python, MATSIM, TensorFlow and PyTorch. One of these workstations also is equipped with Brainchip's Akida ADK1000 neuromorphic chipset. The lab also has 10 Waveshare JetBot AI kits and 10 additional Nvidia’s 2GB Jetson Nano developer kits, which are used to develop f-1/18th vehicles that can mimic both manual and self-driving cars, as well as road side units in our transportation testbed.

... and isn't that Pia stage left?
Edit: Ok Quatrojos, silver medal's fine.
Yes it is....cheers Tech
Well, at least MF will be happy about Recogni management, even if they don't know what's a neuromorphic computer anyway:Was flicking around on Lockheed and this LinkedIn popped up in a search.

Recogni use MACs with a processor design from last millennium, and the data still catches a bus to work:
US12039290B1 Multiply accumulate (MAC) unit with split accumulator 20240109
In a multiply accumulate (MAC) unit, an accumulator may be implemented in two or more stages. For example, a first accumulator may accumulate products from the multiplier of the MAC unit, and a second accumulator may periodically accumulate the running total of the first accumulator.
[0136] System 600 includes a bus 602 or other communication mechanism for communicating information, and a processor 604 coupled with the bus 602 for processing information. Computer system 600 also includes a main memory 606 , such as a random access memory (RAM) or other dynamic storage device, coupled to the bus 602 for storing information and instructions to be executed by processor 604 . Main memory 606 also may be used for storing temporary variables or other intermediate information during execution of instructions to be executed by processor 204 . Computer system 600 further includes a read only memory (ROM) 608 or other static storage device coupled to the bus 602 for storing static information and instructions for processor 604 . A storage device 610 , for example a hard disk, flash memory-based storage medium, or other storage medium from which processor 604 can read, is provided and coupled to bus 602 for storing information and instructions (e.g., operating systems, applications programs and the like).

"Recogni's Stereo 3D Detection Pipeline
Published on
August 2, 2022
Recogni Perception Team
Introduction
At Recogni, we develop an industry-leading chip for accelerating deep neural network inference for highly automated driving. This chip runs neural network inference extremely efficiently—you may have seen references to 1000 TOPS at 25 Watts in our previous write-ups. That’s not a pipedream—the chip exists and is customer-deployed. Input to the system are pairs of stereo camera images. Cameras see farther and are more cost effective to integrate in production vehicles than other sensor types such as LIDAR or RADAR. That’s why it’s natural to combine them with our cost-efficient inference chip for a high-performance, low-wattage perception solution.The system would not be complete without a perception stack to actually run on it. This article presents an overview of how we build and deploy our stereo 3D Object Detection (3DOD) model and continue to improve it over time.
We concentrate on 3DOD because even though it is a very difficult real-world problem, it’s one where our great compute capacity and the ability to process high-resolution imagery very efficiently offer huge benefits. Additionally, it imposes challenges beyond the pure neural network execution, such as decoding of network outputs into 3D boxes in space or running Non Maximum Suppression.
We develop perception architectures for 3DOD and other applications both to deploy with customers and to gather knowledge not readily available - especially how to convert models for this new hardware.
