BRN Discussion Ongoing

From memory, most of Megachips revenue is from Nintendo. If we can make our way into their next console and controllers, we may end up in 80% of their products? That would be a nice earner as Nintendo sell about 20 million consoles a year.

I read today Nintendo may be releasing the next version of Switch in 2024, and not doing a lot in 2023, not even many new games announced, indicating they are likely winding back support for current Switch to focus on the new one - Think the original switch was 2017, so they are definitely due.

Its really hard to find any Nintendo development info though - tight ship

They do release snippets of their future products on Twitter groups.

I'll be happy to take even just the controllers.

Given they're essentially a consumable that wears out eventually and needs replaced, there'd be regular turnover of them in due course.

That and also the 3rd party versions would need the same capability means while the other electronics might be a cheaper copy, they would still need Akida you'd think for whatever capability it was utilised for.

Hi to all,

good to see a slightly rising SP today.

Appreciate this forum as it deals with different considerations and as it is the place where all arguments are held together.

I guess if we just ignore yesterday it looks good.

I have been thinking about Tony Dawe's letter.
I thought that Akida2000 was the next chip to be taped out, however in TD's letter he states that the Akida1500 tape out was because of direct engagement with customers. I can't imagine BRN would have taped out Akida1500 without having firm commitments from licensee's or customers.
This raises a few questions.

• Who could want the Akida1500 so badly that BRN moved it ahead of the Akida2000 tape out.
• Once the Akida1500 has been examined, tested and passed, should we expect a new License Agreement? or
• Can we expect actual orders for the Akida1500 in the very near future, because the chip was MADE TO ORDER for someone?

I believe we have a good chance that an announcement will come very soon after Akida1500 has passed muster, and I think it will be the MOA announcements.

I think you are right about thinking that Akida2000 was meant to be taped out before the Akida1500. It’s very interesting that they have gone for the 1500. I like the way you think.

Here is what Rob Telson said in 2021:
Rob Telson, vice president of worldwide sales, said BrainChip is drawing up plans for smaller and larger versions of Akida under the names Akida500, Akida1500 and Akida2000. Some of these may well comply to a new generation of the Akida architecture – Akida 2.0 – due to arrive in 2022. It is thought Akida500 could be implemented in 22nm FDSOI manufacturing process, and serve as a demonstrator of the agnostic nature of the Akida architecture.

Ah Grasshopper, I wondered who would pick this gem out.

The development and validation of ADAS/AD systems follow techniques that are fundamentally different from the conventional ones used in the automotive domain.
Read our latest application note that gives an expert analysis of these techniques and the technologies used:

APPLICATION NOTE

Novel Strategies for ADAS/AD Validation​

Data-driven, Cloud-based & Digital Twin enabled
The future of mobility in the coming years depends on ADAS (Advance driver assistance systems) and AD (Autonomous Driving) systems. Efficient and reliable technologies are imminently required to develop, verify, and validate ADAS/AD systems. This application note throws light on the three important domains for the development of ADAS/AD systems namely: Data-driven, Cloud-based & Digital Twin-enabled.

Development and validation of ADAS/AD systems are fundamentally different from the conventional techniques utilized for other automotive domains. This can be attributed to certain factors like:

• A plethora of sensors are used in ADAS/AD vehicles.
• Complex algorithms performing the functions of perception, path planning, and navigation.
• Conventional testing techniques cannot provide full functional test coverage to the ADAS/AD systems, as they need to be exposed to real-world situations, corner cases, accident scenarios, etc.

This note also showcases the implementation of standard compliance when doing simulations for ADAS/AD systems. Real-world examples are utilized to explain the concepts clearly in this application note.

Novel Strategies for ADAS/AD Validation

Tata Elxsi's application note highlights ADAS/AD validation in the automotive industry through data-driven, cloud-based & Digital Twin-enabled domains.

Careful mate or the thought police will be on your case.
This post, apparently, should only be displayed on the marryouwanna thread, cause putting it here is too disruptive to their thought processes.
If you're not careful, soon they'll start calling you a clown. And then where will you be?
