​

NEC National Security Systems (NSS), the 2021 Platinum ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Award Winner for Best Federal Govt/DoD Access Control Management, is pleased to announce that its Marine Identity Intelligence Prototype is one of Multiple Products, Nominated to Compete in the 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program.​

​

​

NEC NSS is a key solution developer in creating the Marine Identity Intelligence Prototype (EI2P).​

This solution requires the collection and matching of finger, face, and iris biometric data in a denied, degraded, intermittent, and low bandwidth (DDIL) environment.​

Though the combat landscape has changed over the past 20 years, identity intelligence (I2) continues to play an important role.​

Unfortunately, there are still service members using yesterday’s technology to support today’s mission with no clear path to updated I2 capabilities.​

The United States Marine Corps (USMC) needed a next-generation identity intelligence solution, that would be a highly mobile, distributed edge computing platform system able to aggregate resources and provide communications across individual nodes without reach back to a larger data center or cloud-based resources.​

Using the Marine Identity Intelligence Prototype (EI2P) developed by NEC NSS, face images are automatically captured using a helmet-mounted camera and submitted wirelessly to a lightweight, body-worn IoT device for matching, with operators being notified of the results.​

​

The included mesh network from Rajant Corporation, also a 2021 Platinum ‘ASTORS’ Award Winner, allows for the uploaded data and notifications to be shared across multiple operators within the team.​

NEC’s digital, body-worn solutions provide identity intelligence at the edge, combining NEC’s best-of-breed matching algorithms with cutting-edge wearable cameras.​

Integrated with a low-power IoT compute device, this lightweight and portable solution constantly captures and matches biometrics locally and without the need for communications backend systems, expediting mission-critical information to users in the field.​

​

The Marine Identity Intelligence Prototype Key Benefits Include:​

• Supports live stream and still photo capture​

• Up to 100K identity records capacity​

• AI edge accelerator for biometric processing​

• Reliable mesh network to synchronize intelligence as its gathered​

• Enroll and identify foreign threat actors in theater​

• Expand security perimeter at large gatherings, identifying known threats (Do Not Admit Lists/BOLO Lists/ Person of Interest List) on the move.​

NEC National Security Systems (NSS) offers integrated hardware and software solutions to support critical national security, intelligence, homeland defense, immigration, and law enforcement missions across the federal landscape.​

​

NEC NSS’s primary customers include the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Defense (DoD), the U.S. State Department (DOS0, the U.S. Justice Department (DOJ), and the U.S. intelligence community.​

NEC NSS tools host a variety of applications in access control, scene processing, advanced analytics, as well as border and transportation security. These offerings are in high demand, especially considering the increasingly touchless, post-COVID-19 world.​

Very Promising.

And then there is this.

Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning​

Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and computer vision are rapidly evolving technologies, and our access to NEC’s active R&D keeps U.S. solutions on the cutting-edge.

Artificial Intelligence​

AI enables computers to assist personnel with quick analysis of scenes and situations, and machine learning refers to the aspect of AI that enables computers to adapt based on data input rather than only on programming. Machine learning can apply to any type of pattern recognition, which is the automated recognition of patterns and regularities in data.
One example is improvements in computer vision, which enables computers to observe a scene and recognize changes the same way humans do. With machine learning, computer vision can learn typical activities and recognize anomalies.

NEC NSS offers integrated solutions for intelligent sensing, scene processing and identifying violators:​

Company Update
LAGUNA HILLS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / October 3, 2022 / BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX:BRN, OTCQX:BRCHF, ADR:BCHPY), the world's first commercial producer of neuromorphic AI IP, today announced that Luca Verre, CEO and co-founder of PROPHESEE, is the featured guest on the 20th episode of the "This is our Mission" podcast. He joins BrainChip Vice President of Ecosystem and Partnerships Rob Telson to discuss overcoming roadblocks of computer vision by improving the speed, performance, efficiency and safety through neuromorphic engineering. The podcast will be available Tuesday, October 4, 2022, at 3 p.m. PDT on BrainChip's website and across popular podcast platforms.
PROPHESEE has developed a breakthrough event-based approach to machine vision. This new vision category allows for significant reductions of power, latency and data processing requirements to reveal what was invisible to traditional frame-based sensors until now. PROPHESEE'S patented Metavision® sensors and algorithms mimic how the human eye and brain work to dramatically improve efficiency in areas such as autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, IoT, mobile and AR/VR.
"The successful growth and future development of PROPHESEE's vision system technology will lead to a fundamental shift in the way that we incorporate AI enhancing applications such as automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics, which will directly impact our daily lives," said Telson." I'm excited for listeners to understand how combining PROPHESEE's and BrainChip's neuromorphic platforms creates a unique vertical stack that amplifies the commercial implementation of AI with remarkable inference performance and ultra-low power consumption."
The "This is Our Mission" podcast provides AI industry insight to listeners including users, developers, analysts, technical and financial press, and investors. Past episodes are available at https://brainchipinc.com/brainchip-podcasts.

I am not often excited by these podcasts. To date the most exciting was DELL Technologies with Rob Lincourt.

This podcast with Prophesee has the potential to be the most exciting. Luca Verre is the CEO so has full knowledge of everything that is occurring between Brainchip and Prophesee.

Prophesee is a private company so the only constraints on what Luca Verre can speak about will be self imposed.

My hope is that like all venture backed technology companies he will be on a mission to evangelise the world as to the marvel their sensor with AKIDA is proving to be.

The one question I would expect Rob Telson not to ask is “Was it one of @Diogenese ‘s posts on TSEx which led to Prophesee’s realisation that SynSense was a technology dead end?”

Very not right. Has to be a glitch or a hack from Vlad.

Comm Sec issue I believe?

 

[Mugen74]

115k only sold for a 5%sp rise? Commsuc should glitch more often

 

[Fact Finder]

All good now.

I think Commsec realised that there was a glitch after BRN fell out of the Big Four Bank Index and they had to sync them again, which they have and BRN is once again trading as a block with CBA, ANZ,NAB & WBC.

Order restored.

A grandfatherly word.

The people of Europe and the UK are suffering under the weight of enormously negative economic and geopolitical pressures.

The Ukrainian people are forced to fight a war within their own borders.

Russian people are facing a bleak and unprosperous future regardless of whether Puto is a military hero or not.

China is facing a grave housing market collapse and a deteriorating economy.

The USA is toying with the idea of a recession.

The world will be a very grim place for the vast majority of its peoples.

The news will be sad and depressing and real people will be suffering across the globe.

As a result the aid that normally flows to African and other countries will diminish and their already impoverished lives will be made even worse and shorter.

So do not loose sight of the FACT that those of us who live here in Australia are going to continue to live a very privileged and lucky life in comparison.

In fact because of many of the issues demand for Australia’s resources will increase and we will prosper in an environment of near full employment.

So do not let the manipulators of our press and media instil in you a fear that has little relevance to you as a lucky Australian.

ONCE AGAIN when these issues have all played out and the World is back on track Australia will emerge once again as the economic miracle.

[Sirod69]

Ein großväterliches Wort.

Die Menschen in Europa und Großbritannien leiden unter dem enormen negativen wirtschaftlichen und geopolitischen Druck.

Das ukrainische Volk ist gezwungen, einen Krieg innerhalb seiner eigenen Grenzen zu führen.

Das russische Volk sieht einer düsteren und wenig wohlhabenden Zukunft entgegen, unabhängig davon, ob Puto ein Militärheld ist oder nicht.

China steht vor einem schweren Zusammenbruch des Wohnungsmarktes und einer sich verschlechternden Wirtschaft.

Die USA spielen mit dem Gedanken einer Rezession.

Die Welt wird für die überwiegende Mehrheit ihrer Völker ein sehr düsterer Ort sein.

Die Nachrichten werden traurig und deprimierend sein und echte Menschen werden auf der ganzen Welt leiden.

Infolgedessen wird die Hilfe, die normalerweise in afrikanische und andere Länder fließt, geringer und ihr bereits verarmtes Leben wird noch schlimmer und kürzer.

Verlieren Sie also nicht die Tatsache aus den Augen, dass diejenigen von uns, die hier in Australien leben, im Vergleich dazu weiterhin ein sehr privilegiertes und glückliches Leben führen werden.

Tatsächlich wird die Nachfrage nach australischen Ressourcen aufgrund vieler Probleme steigen und wir werden in einem Umfeld nahezu Vollbeschäftigung gedeihen.

Lassen Sie sich also von den Manipulatoren unserer Presse und Medien keine Angst einflößen, die für Sie als glücklichen Australier wenig relevant ist.

EINMAL WIEDER, wenn diese Probleme sich alle erledigt haben und die Welt wieder auf Kurs ist, wird Australien wieder einmal als Wirtschaftswunder hervorgehen.

Another grandfatherly word in support,

An " on point " post indeed.

It's a mess everywhere IMO. We are so lucky here in Aus, also IMO. But don't count your chickens etc too soon, because the unexpected is just around the corner, and best to keep a corner or two ahead. Unknowns come to mind.

Too many mad or crazed ( or both ) so called leaders, directing haphazardly in the extreme too often unfortunately.
A " take out " response wouldn't go astray IMHO, any time soon, by the willing and able, a drone strike comes to mind, and soon would help or change strategies for the betterment of everyone.

And most of the press, IMHO, can go and get stuffed ( particularly the Murdoch ones which is most ), are really just a nothingness, and don't help to solve ( or inform consistently ) much at all.

Climate strike ( read change ) IMO won't help much in resolving the issue's that exist, only time will tell with that ?? and real leadership, is there possibly some of that in existence currently ?? Please let it be so soon.

Anyway, things to do, people to see. Will be over the ditch for a while catching up.

GLTAH and

Akida Ballista >>>> as always, fingers crossed IMO <<<<
