Following on from the terrible result for Tesla when the test car phoughed into a little girl mannequin a few weeks ago, the other car in the test had 'Luminar' written on the bonnet. I just want to check with our brains trust if we think there is any link between us and Luminar?

The full test footage is here:

I can't understand how people here are not swinging from the chandeliers.

Probably because they don't want their ceilings to cave in.

Even as you speak, I'm sitting in a pile of ceiling plaster, dust, and chandelier glass.

@Bravo - I'll have to get out of bed earlier.

At least they'll be able to afford fixing it before they move into their new mansions...

As the Qualcomm CEO left Sony off this slide I thought I should bring @ForestofHope ‘s early post forward:

“Dec 4, 2021

‘Smartphone processor manufacturer Qualcomm has teamed up with leading smartphone CMOS sensor maker Sony Semiconductor to provide better integration between their two systems for future smartphone development. And this isn’t just an on-paper partnership, they’ve actually moved teams into the same building to work alongside each other for future smartphone development.

While there aren’t a lot of public details out there regarding the partnership yet, Sony is moving a team into Qualcomm’s San Diego headquarters. And in the announcement during the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1announcement Qualcomm mentioned three specific benefits relating to smartphone cameras that are expected to be gained from the partnership with Sony.’

Always interesting what is left off presentations by companies or should I say the questions it raises create the interest.

The following is from the above article. Wearing non rose coloured glasses the three points make sense if Sony or Qualcomm have had a breakthrough such as the Prophesee Brainchip sensor suddenly dropping in their lap and they wanting to steal a leap over the competition:

“The first is to be able to speed up the development process of Snapdragon 8 devices. With the two leaders in their field working literally side-by-side, Qualcomm’s plan seems to be to improve its image signal processing technology – which would make sense, given how much of smartphone photography is computational these days.

Secondly, it will allow for less red tape between the two companies to access and test each other’s new technologies. This means easier and quicker prototype development with each other’s new technologies and to even develop joint prototypes together. Being under the same roof in the same lab means that such activities should be much more efficient than if they were separate, resulting in more innovation more often.

Finally, it will allow both companies to more rapidly test as well as leverage each other’s experience to more rapidly develop and improve the camera technology that’s become such a big selling point in smartphones today. It means faster iteration cycles, more optimised architecture and compatibility between components from the two companies and tighter integration for an overall smoother and more seamless working experience. It’ll also mean that new technology can come to the market more quickly”

My opinion only but being announced by Sony and Qualcomm in December, 2021 fits perfectly in the time line of Prophesee discovering the missing half of their revolutionary groundbreaking solution.

Just some prev info posts around Qualcomm and also one of our patents with a DVS (Prophesee?) component.

To do with Adaround Quantizer (Qualcomms)

Certainly does fit nicely, especially as we know via @chapman89 that Prophesee and Brainchip were mates by then.

 

[Fact Finder]

At 2.38pm a total of just over one sixth of one percent of shares on issue have traded today.

This even includes the CXXT movement of single collector edition Brainchip shares.

If it gets any tighter shorts will have to ask Brainchip to issue more shares to create volume. ’s

The significance of this Prophesee podcast might be finally seeping out into the world.

I was re-reading back through this Qualcomm blog on quanitisation (link below). One of the authors is Timjen Blankevoort (Director of Engineering Technologies Netherlands).

Blankevoort is quite an unusual name and I remembered seeing it before on this BrainChip Source Code for cnn@snn.

So, ummm, yeah. Not sure what that means actually.

Since @uiux is in stealth mode, I'll have a stab.

Looks like the program used in cnn2snn for deciding whether to round up or down when compressing the data to 4 bits was written by Blankevoort and co in 2004.

Air Force Acquires Australia's MQ-28 Ghost Bat Drone For Testing​

Joseph Trevithick - 11h ago
React8 Comments|

The Pentagon has confirmed that it will be using a Boeing MQ-28 Ghost Bat drone, an advanced uncrewed design developed and produced by the company's division in Australia, for research and development purposes in cooperation with the U.S. Air Force. The Air Force also recently announced that Chief of Staff Gen. Charles Q. Brown and his Royal Australian Air Force counterpart Air Marshal Robert Chipman had signed a new agreement to strengthen the already significant relationship that exists between the two services.

We Zoom In on the Google Pixel 7 Pro’s Camera​

Asha Barbaschow - 1h ago


During Made By Google this morning, the search giant unveiled its new flagship Pixel phones, giving us the rundown of what you can get when you mix Google software with Google hardware. The camera system on the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro phones don't appear to be too different from their predecessors, but when you zoom in, you see the new Google Tensor G2 chip working its magic.

As is always the case with Google, one super cool feature has piqued our interest in particular around the Pixel camera, and with the 7 Pro, it’s Photo Unblur.

The Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro come packed with Google’s Tensor G2 chip, which powers all of the smarts behind the scenes. Such smarts include Face Unblur and now, Photo Unblur.

With the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro phones, Google introduced Face Unblur, which, as it says on the tin, brought the capability to unblur a person’s face in a photo after it was captured. Expanding on that tech this year, Google is using a new type of machine learning model to unblur more photos.

This has been added to Google Photos so you can unblur photos that have been taken in the past – they don’t even need to have been captured on a Google/Android device.

This runs on-device through a special optimisation on Google Tensor.

Just sayin'.

Late edition: This is not Prophesee unblur. See Google unblur patent below.

I wont need to go to spec savers anymore
