I forecast the following companies will embed Akida IP into their IoT chips:
Qualcomm, Intel, Texas Instruments, NXP, Infineon, STMicroelectronics, MediaTek, Microchip, Samsung, Silicon Labs, Nordic Semiconductor, SiFive.
When I first invested in BRN it was due to AI thematic. Then when details of the IP revenue model were announced I had visions of mini ARM.
Soon after many ex-ARM employees starting working for BRN. Vision changed to big ARM, not mini anymore.
Now after all the partnerships, market research reports, hiring of more high calibre semiconductor industry staff, lack of real competition, low cost, low power patented tech & new product launches I am convinced that BRN will become at least the size of ARM.
Market timing seems to be spot on, tech seems to be unique & in demand offering low cost solutions, TAM huge & for the cost of a packet of sauce as has been mentioned it's a no brainer to embed into most AI chips. Manufacturers will compete & want the latest tech to differentiate their products from competitors.
IoT smart devices will be everywhere. From smartwatches to smart running shoes. Smart traffic lights to smart street lights. Everything will have the opportunity to be smart for a packet of sauce. Industry has to save power, reduce latency & move to the edge as the cloud will not be able to handle the increase.
I think it was Sean that mentioned he wanted Akida to become standard in all devices similar to bluetooth.
