What can I say: I’m a loving kind of guy and appreciate any replies as a good starting point.

IMU is on my list to research because if it’s good enough for Him who am I to ignore it!

Thanks to those who responded. It’s very much appreciated. As a novice investor I need all the advice I can get.

Cheers!

Definitely LTR

I just had an idea and thought maybe I could send megachips an email seeing how they were going introducing Akida to the American market and what sort of feed back are they getting from there customers, then I realised my English ain’t they good, so does anyone else fancy trying to get some feedback? As you just never know they might just reply.

Better to get Mr Chapman to see if he can verify and do Quality control first and report back to us.

PRODUCT DETAILS​

CANBed - Arduino CAN-BUS Development Kit embeds an ATmega32U4 chip, which means you don’t need to add other jump wires to another Arduino Board, it is an Arduino board itself plus MCP2515 CAN Bus controller and MCP2551 CAN Bus transceiver!

Features​

• Enhanced MCU Performance: ATmega32U4 with Arduino Leonardo bootloader on the board
• Compatible with Arduino: Combines CAN-BUS shield and Arduino development board together on a single board
• High Speed: Implements CAN V2.0B at up to 1 Mb/s
• Rich Resources in Pins: 18 pins that include digital pins, analog pins, UART, and I2C interface
• Easy to Use: Requires no other MCU to control and is compatible with Arduino IDE

How does CAN-BUS work?​

The fuel level, door sensors, odometer, and many more parts of a car have to communicate with each other somehow, and CAN BUS is what they used to do. These CAN-compatible components, which are called “nodes” are connected with a 3-string copper wire, with no central router to govern the flow of data. Every node can hear the messages of every other node.

Every node has an ID, where the ones with the higher priority ID can have the priority to “talk” first while the others “listen”. This is to ensure that there are never two nodes talking at the same time. The biggest benefit of CAN-BUS is to be able to just connect components without having to worry about signal routing.

CANBed - Arduino CAN-BUS Development Kit (ATmega32U4 with MCP2515 and MCP2551)

CANBed - Arduino CAN-BUS Development Kit carries an Microchip ATmega32U4 chip and MCP2515, MCP2551 CAN-BUS controller and transceiver to realize the CAN-BUS communication protocol on a single board without other MCU to control, it is a CAN-BUS Development Board itself!

If we only knew the answer to that, it would be exceptional news .....imo, I think it will have something to do with intergrating additional optionals with the new Akida 2000 that others like ARM, Megachips etc etc would like to see incorporated into same... but in the back of my mind I suppose that an expenditure of only some $0.77mill isn't really such a huge figure in the big scheme of things.

Just wondering if there is anything else that could be added onto our "JAST" licence just to make things a lot more interesting and /or to incorporate another JAST type tech so as to open up new avenues with other device's ?? !!

- How IoT is Helping Fight Forest Fires​

In Germany, a country that has seemingly turned a corner when it comes to wildfires in recent years, environmental IoT startup Dryad has begun deploying sensors designed to improve the early detection of wildfires. Dubbed Silvanet, the solution is a collection of solar-powered devices that attach to tree trunks and can detect gas and smoke during the early stages of a fire. By analyzing the composition, temperature, humidity, and pressure of the area, Silvanet can identify a potential wildfire within an hour from the initial spark.

- Controlling Pests with Smart Devices​

- Connecting the Internet of Trees​

Data is perhaps the best weapon in the ongoing battle against global climate change. By deploying smart devices in the areas most impacted by shifts in climate, researchers are able to track, monitor – and potentially anticipate risk factors before they can create potentially catastrophic situations.

Of course, many of the areas most affected by climate change (such as forests) are fairly remote. This means that efficiently retrieving data requires secure, reliable connectivity. Whether it’s a low-power option like LoRaWAN or cellular connectivity, Soracom Air is a solution that can keep an entire network of smart devices connected.

Hi all,

Non Brainchip question so feel free to skip over it:

I can finally move a portion of my Super into a SMSF at the end of November. It’s been agonising waiting for this to occur, watching Brainchip and a few others go up whilst unable to put my super into it!

To balance my portfolio I am asking if anyone has any other solid share tips they’d like to share please?

Obviously I’m going to do my own research which is why I’m asking now as it give me a few months to consider my options and investment strategy.

Rather than clog up this thread if you could message me with any advice/share tips it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Take a look at NSB, tiny market cap and hard to load in decent volumes therefore quick movements in sp. It’s looking close to ph 1 human trials for a peptide based drug that can cure the symptoms of glaucoma, Alzheimer’s and Multiple sclerosis. Slow burn but May one day help millions and make your super grow. My opinion only.

Just to show how big the market can be, Apple has told its suppliers it intends to produce 220m iPhones again next year

The entire new vehicle market is ~115m-120m/yr. Toyota is the biggest making about 12m/yr thanks to the Corolla

Hubble-servicing NASA astronaut urges human-robot synergy for future moon missions​

NASA astronaut John Grunsfeld cited some less than stellar findings during a keynote speech in June at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) Visitor Complex, says waiting to integrate science objectives directly into foundational mission hardware prohibits our exploration potential.

NASA's Engineering & Safety Center (NESC) sponsored a workshop entitled "Unique Science from the Moon in the Artemis Era." The three-day long conference focused on the various engineering obstacles associated with utilization of the lunar environment for possible astronomical science experiments as part of NASA's Artemis missions, like the Lunar Crater Radio Telescope (LCRT), and the challenges faced regarding astronauts' assembly and maintenance of scientific experiments and spaceflight infrastructure.

Industry professionals participated in a schedule of seminars which covered topics ranging from lunar dust and power generation to robotic exploration and human spaceflight, with the goal of establishing a roadmap to develop lunar experiments through to execution over the next few decades.

If only there was some way of using natural language to communicate between astronauts and their robot equipment.

"Hey Mercedes", MBUX and Nvidia

I don't know if this has been discussed here yet.
This comment brings me to the question of who suggested MB Akida. Was it Nvidia as the developer and close alround partner for MBUX (and additionally autonomous driving) or was it actually MB's R&D themselves that brought Akida into play? Somehow I can rather imagine Nvidia advising them even if that may seem absurd. Nvidia is considered a global specialist for artificial intelligence. So for me, the idea is close that MB as a customer first asks their AI partner for the most sensible solution.
The other way around MB should have known better than Nvidia?!
Or MB stumbled upon this exciting new thing and connected the board itself with the Nvidia MBUX?
Is there an answer to this?

The more I look at MBRDI or at connections via employees to neural networks the more I tend to think that the Indian team suggested Akida to their German colleagues. Who knows maybe someone knows Anil personally...

Part of the answer is here but not who Akida put on the table:

I think we are getting closer but I think there is another one that includes other names?

Thank you!

 

[stuart888]

Thanks so much for explaining it @Diogenese though I don’t pretend to understand it all but very much appreciate your response. It looks like Akida and Plumeria are a good fit for each other

For those following Plumeria: The world's fastest inference engine. With Akida inside? Plumeria was/still is on the Iceberg.

Nasdaq up nearly 2% overnight should see us get back some of fridays losses, but how long that lasts next week without any sort of news will be short lived I recon, so looks like we are on a sidewards journey until we do.

I can imagine our toilets being smart and giving us alerts regarding potential health concerns.

S&P 500 Gains as Chip Stocks Lead Tech Higher​

Stock Markets 3 hours ago (Aug 13, 2022 04:50)

Investing.com -- The S&P 500 climbed as chip stocks helped tech bounce back from a wobble a day earlier to keep the broader market on track for its fourth straight weekly gain.

The S&P 500 gained 1.73%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 1.27%, the Nasdaq was up 2.09%.

Technology stocks were led higher by a more than 2% jump in semiconductor stocks as dip-buying in Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU) and NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) continued after the duo plunged earlier this week on profit warnings.

As well as rallying chip stocks, big tech was also in the ascendency. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) was up more than 1% after the tech giant reportedly told iPhone suppliers to ramp up production amid expectations for sales to remain steady despite a slowing market.

Tech is set to gain nearly 2% this week on easing fears of a deep recession and signs of easing inflation that has pressured U.S. Treasury yields.

“Treasury yields have come down, allowing the sector to be valued higher than it was before … [boosting] the mega cap tech stocks that dominate the equity indexes,” Jimmy Lee, the founder and CEO of The Wealth Consulting Group, told Investing.com in an interview on Thursday. "The idea that we're not going to be in a bad recession, and a recession could be short lived," Lee added, has also played a role in the recent run-up in big tech.

Sentiment on stocks were also boosted by data pointing to an ongoing recovery in the consumer sentiment on the economy, but expectations on five-year inflation ticked up to 3%.
