I note in the last 4C that the receipts from customers was $205k .... Accordingly, I would be more than happy to see this upcoming 4C's receipts from customers at closer to ~$500k range .... as imo this would basically imply, that more customers are coming on board and the Co is collecting funds from services rendered to them.... anything over $500K would be impressive imo and could indicate the beginning of the exponential growth phase as discussed/implied by Sean H at the AGM....

Move on, nothing to see.
And promptly follows a perfect example of Germany's strict data protection. The so-called ~ Data Protection General Regulation (DSGVO) has applied to the entire EU since 2018 and is still being implemented. Nevertheless, anyone who wants to sell or process something here must comply with it. Tesla was made aware of this today. For me, this is not about recording data, but explicitly about recognising faces or behaviour in vehicles, locally and without storing the data. This is the spot for Akida and Nviso, for example. At least that's how I see it.

"Consumer advice center sues Tesla for violation of data protection and misleading environmental claims

19.07.2022, 15:551 min reading time
The Federal Association of German Consumer Centers has sued Tesla. Accordingly, the US electric car manufacturer is concealing the fact that its customers are violating data protection. In addition, Tesla makes misleading environmental claims.
Tesla is facing new lawsuits. The Federal Association of German Consumer Centers justified this on Tuesday with "misleading statements" by the car company about CO2 savings through the purchase of its cars and with data protection concerns when using the so-called guard mode for environmental monitoring. The lawsuits were filed with the district court in Berlin, the association announced in the capital.

The consumer advocates criticize the company's advertising statements, which, according to the association, could give buyers the impression that the purchase of a Tesla reduces the overall CO2 emissions of car traffic. In reality, however, the US group sells the rights it saves on CO2 emissions from its own fleet to other car manufacturers.

Tesla Guardian feature not allowed in public spaces​

In addition, the consumer advocates accuse Tesla of not informing the users of its cars that it should be impossible to use the so-called guard function in public spaces in accordance with data protection regulations. Cameras monitor the surroundings and save the recordings in certain cases, which is intended to protect the vehicles. According to the association, this is not permitted under the General Data Protection Regulation.

Accordingly, Tesla owners would have to obtain consent to data processing from random passers-by in the field of view of the cameras. In addition, an unprovoked recording of what is happening around the cars is not permitted at all. The drivers therefore risked fines."

The topic of handling data will become more and more important as time goes on. Here, the field can belong to Akida alone until the others have caught up. I would do more advertising with data protection.

The EU's regulation or guideline on facial recognition. From here it branches out into other guidelines such as dealing with AI.

WHITE PAPER On Artificial Intelligence - A European approach to excellence and trust

Don't worry, I haven't studied them yet either, I didn't have the time.
Wow @cosors that is so interesting. Thanks for sharing this with us.

What an absolutely intriguing can-o-worms this German legislation (or law suit) will open. The right to privacy, even when in a public place, quite honestly is the way I’d prefer it to be. I believe our rights to privacy have already been eroded way too much with all the street-based cameras that already exist.

On a huge positive note, these type of privacy laws (even just the consideration of them) enhance the saleability of sensors that process the data on board and do not require a connection to The Cloud. And that should make Akida an even more attractive proposition.

I wonder if this same law, in Germany, will impact Google maps, specifically Street View. As I understand Street View, individuals can “apply” to have their image blurred, but they remain publicly visible otherwise. Is this different in Germany?

Also, what about dash cams?

As I said—what a can-o-worms. Do the legislators really want to open up this can?

Fascinatingly Intuitive.
Morning Chippers,

Looking primed for another great day.

Something for the super sleuths...

Watching news this morning ... Tasmanian observatory receives new telescope mount from HENSOLDT.

Would appear HENSOLDT are a pretty full on bunch of characters.

Possibly falls within Uiux field of expertise.

AKIDA certainly falls within their field of expertise, if Brainchip is not engaged with HENSOLDT yet might pay to send them a gift basket .

Regards,
Esq.

Google Maps and Germany: Take any city and a well-designed residential area. It is much and often obfuscated. Germany is the least enlightened country on Google Maps in the western world. But it's not Germany with privacy here, it's Europe. Everyone has to adapt. In the beginning, the dissenting voices were very loud, even today. Nevertheless, as with the regulations regarding autonomous driving, it is trend-setting and, strangely enough, many nations accept it. I am sure that Brainchip will have a monopole in this niche for the next few years.

German capital for armaments was increased to 100b this year. I do not like armament topics and you are maybe about something different. But you can be sure that they will do very well. Focus for me are drones, detectors and radar.

Hello, Hillo (probably how an Aussie would mock a Kiwi for saying it 🤣), Hallo, Howdy and Hej

The issue of translation has come up a few times recently - with some getting increasingly frustrated with non-English posts

This issue is easily fixed but maybe people are not aware of how to translate text etc?

Personally I would hate for the posters with English as their second, third or fourth language to be scared off or banned for not following the rules

In saying that, regarding the rules (in terms of primary language to be used on TSE) - it is clearly stated as English

I value all of your input and literally read every single post, so please post in English with a translation of your native language post if you wish


Here’s a guide to translation via iPhone - if this is helpful

Performing a text translation on an iPhone takes less than 3 seconds: highlight text > arrow right > select translate

Below is how you do it for photographed text:

Click text/lines icon at bottom right of screen

Flattened text unflattens

View attachment 11872

Double tap and select highlighted text

View attachment 11873

Translation pops up to be read/copied

Thanks for that VERY informative tip @thelittleshort, unfortunately that functionality isn’t available on any of the platforms I use.

It is FAR better, and more efficient, for the poster (a single person) to translate once, rather than 10’s of thousands of others to need to translate it.

It also just makes sense that if the poster really wants to get their point across that it is in their best interests to post it in a manner that adheres to the common language of the forum.

It’s hard enough to keep up to date with all the posts. The need to translate them as well is detrimental to the experience.

Well Brainers. With the last 2 days testing $1 and the positive way it tested those levels, we are in for 1 hell of a day. NASDAQ rocketing with US likely passing their tech bill. Massive news for tech stocks. The recent spate of news etc pointing to PDVM words “an explosion in sales” along with what is a golden trifecta of positivity is going to set this ride to get real exciting. Brainchip is the one company most associated with the buzz word phrase Edge AI.

Sell volume has thinned. Shorters will be scrambling to buy out their position. This could be the day we look back on fondly. Remember the date. 200722.

better take care of contributions or start as a teacher in your village! Master data are in English! and everyone who is interested can also translate with the tools! would be strange to me that it is forbidden to speak German in Australia! because the people are pretty cool 😉 so i'm not ashamed of my language and i have to translate it too! don't believe that australian people in german forums are so constantly attacked by collaborators! so fun aside, sorry for my blatant mistake people
Laden. On a slightly different tangent. Thanks for taking the time to post in this forum. However as a relatively time poor user I have to admit that I simply skim over your articles as I don’t have time to do the translation. Now this is my loss if you post a gem and I take that risk and don’t translate, however if you genuinely wish to share what has been great research to reach the masses you need to make communications as easy for the majority as you can no matter what language that takes. So it is no bother to me if you post in German. But thank you for contributing
