I'm clutching at straws, but in May this year Quadric appointed former ARM vice president Steve Roddy as their Chief Marketing Officer........bit of a Rob Telson connection perhaps?Anyone know , How does Megachips licence from Quadric fit with Akida ?

I seriously canât believe that people that have invested in BRN think that everything is going to happen in a matter of months from the start of commercialisation to world domination. Clearly none of these people have ever been involved in business of any sort, and if they really thought about what BRN are doing how hard would it be to start / create a new global market itâs hard enough setting up a shop or a restaurant or a printing office in two years and BRN have only been on the road for less than 12 months.If your not happy then consider options better suited to your situation.
Im personally happy with BRN and what is have achieved in the last 12 months and in this current world situation.
Are you overextended in BRN?

I'm wondering how those that have been invested since 2011 are reading your post.I seriously canât believe that people that have invested in BRN think that everything is going to happen in a matter of months from the start of commercialisation to world domination.

I think a great deal can be learned about the reality of what is starting to develop at the Edge.
For a very long time Brainchip seemed to be a lone voice in an echo chamber but in the following extracted paragraphs it is clear that real industry traction is finally taking place at the Edge.
I posted many times that AKIDA is at the far Edge waiting for everyone else to arrive and realise that where they are pulling up is the carpark close to the road and to reach the Edge occupied by AKIDA they have a three to five year walk on rations.
âAccording to Werner Vogels, CTO of AWS, this shift of cloud computing toward edge computing is coming about by âthe need to solve the problem of the speed of light.â
Why? Because the edge, more specifically edge devices, is where the data is being generated AND consumed, whether it is video, telemetry, photos, or documents. And if Qualcomm can help it, most processing will be done on device whether the application workload is AI inference for anomaly detection or a video game.
We can expect the convergence of edge cloud and mobile computing to be the spawning ground for applications and innovations that were not possible before. As the hyperscalers push to extend the cloud out to the âedge,â Qualcomm is uniquely positioned to meet them by wirelessly connecting the vast and rapidly growing universe of intelligent endpoint devices to the emerging edge cloud thus changing the way we design distributed applications and computing systems.
The Connected Intelligent Edge will work out great for Qualcomm if it is able to execute on its Snapdragon strategy because the edge is a diverse frontier beyond the smartphone. That is exactly where Qualcomm boldly intends to go.â
Whether Qualcomm is onboard the Brainchip Bus I know not but among all those names whose reveal we covet will be one or Moore who realise three to five years cannot be caught up over night and that there is only one straight line between two points.
My opinion only DYOR

If you take emotions out of it, the post is realistic. Brainchip really has only just begun it's commercialisation and we have a LONG way to go. But we all hold shares because we believe it will get there. Some poeple frequently jump the gun with unrealistic expectations. The amount of time someone has held a stock for is really irrelevant and it does irk me when people try to make it seem like their view is more important, because they knew about / invested in the company earlier than others. It really has no bearing on the matter.

Quadricâs Chimera general purpose neural processing unit (GPNPU) has a unified HW/SW processor IP architecture optimized for on-device artificial intelligence computing.
Some time back @Diogenese climbed out from his barrel and ascended to the podium and read from the ancient Engineering tablets .
Much of what he spoke was unintelligible to myself and the assembled being in the language of ancient Engineer.
What I did takeaway was that Quadric and Brainchip are not competitors as far as MegaChips is concerned and they will look to deploy Quadric solutions where power use and connectivity are yet to be a customer issue. Think here Supermarket intelligent self serve scanners.
Brainchip will be offered by MegaChip as the solution when power and connectivity are real issues think robotics, automotive and as of today wifi communications systems.

They are grateful that brainchip done a reverse takeover of Aziana in 2015 perhaps?
Hi,
haven't read the forum for quite a while so i hope this article is new to you. I think its worth a read.
https://www.eetimes.eu/cars-that-think-like-you/
My main reads from the article:
1. Synsense and BMW will start to implement neuromorphic stuff in the next coming months. (So BRN shouldnt be far behind with Mercedes maybe?)
BMW will explore neuromorphic technology for car applications, including driver-attention and passenger-behavior monitoring with the Speck module, and the partners will âexplore additional applications both inside and outside the vehicle in coming months,â Muir said.
2. And Jerome Nadel mentions that BRN have a potential of all the sensors in the car. In a 2022 car it is 70! I think this is a great number.
Just read it by yourself. Mixed feelings but the weekend is ahead so stay positive.

Potential for Akida in the Amazon Halo Rise?
Some pertinent sentences:
âPowered by custom machine learning algorithms and a suite of built-in sensorsâ.
âPresence detection: Halo Rise activates its sleep detection only when someone is in range of the sensor. Otherwise, the device remains in a monitoring mode, where no data is transmitted to the cloudâ.
âOnly if the confidence score crosses a reliability threshold does Halo Rise begin streaming sensor data to the cloud, where it is processed by the primary-user-tracking algorithmâ.

Thanks for sharing.
This is an exceptionally old article (published in July this year) that has been re-syndicated...

Move on, nothing to see.
When I hear of robot arms I canât stop thinking of the use Howard (Big Bang Theory) tried to put one to. A little self love. Walking into the emergency department, still attached, was very funny.
Ah thank you...
What a qualitiy journalism.
But i didnt knew that synsense seems to win at BMW. So i thought this could be new.

The author, Sally Ward-Foxton, appears very passionate about this particular area of technology, and has written quite a few great pieces over the past 12 months about neuromorphic AI. Many of which have been shared by Brainchip themselves via twitter.

To be clear, the article states clearly that synsense tech will be utilised by BMW for vision (event) based applications only, and that they may consider it for other use cases. This is a very narrow adoption of synsense that has been confirmed thus far. For instance, BMW have since announced that they are adopting Amazon Alexa Neural AI processor (AZ2) for in-cabin voice processing (https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-2022.1/post-152704). Why did they not adopt synsense for the same purpose I wonder? What is behind the remarkable efficiency gains reported by Amazon about their latest release of Alexa I wonder?

Hi @Jannemann and @wilzy123
My take on SynSense and BMW is it is not a done deal.
The fine print involved is about a trial not a finalised deal to implement:
âTo begin with, we will explore non-safety-critical use cases,â Muir said. âWe are planning future versions of Speck with higher resolution, as well as revisions of our DynapCNN vision processor that will interface with high-resolution sensors. We plan that these future technologies will support advanced automotive applications such as autonomous driving, emergency braking, etc.â
Exploring use cases is a long way from a done deal. I have looked at other documents last week including on SynSense website and cannot find anything to support a stronger view.
At the AGM CEO Sean Hehir made clear that the pretenders will fall by the wayside when exposed to the full glare of AKIDA technology advancements and Propheseeâs adoption of AKIDA this year is a living example of what will take place overtime.â
Remember the words of Chris Stevens when moving from Syntiant to Brainchip to take up his position a VP of Global Sales:
âI have tracked BrainChipâs progress closely, as Iâve been selling into the same edge AI market. I am thrilled to take this sales leadership role with confidence as AkidaTM is uniquely superior and positioned to be the de facto standard for edge AI semiconductor IPâ, said Stevens. âWith use-case, market, and customer targeting, Iâm certain I will contribute to further ecosystem penetration and accelerated salesâ.
Bosch and Valeo supply to all the major European automotive so I personally do not see the adoption of AKIDA by Mercedes as an impediment to BMW doing the same once they realise that just like Sol did all those years ago âoils anât oilsâ.

Hi FF
Thanks for your great reasoning again as always.
Given Quadrics fit for power hungry network connected terminal aplications that's not to say they couldn't also benefit significantly from power saving speed and edge learning with the addition of Akida SNN.
Imo worth the price of a chip to have backup in the event of connection outages.
Cheers DS
