Was having a look at that ISO to see how hard it is....usually are :(

This is from the Synopsys website and the ISO is not an actual legal requirement...yet... but a best practice in reality.

Is ISO 26262 Required?
ISO 26262 is not required by law, but many car makers and suppliers follow it to show their commitment to safety and to improve their products safety. Sometimes customers and regulators might require them to prove they follow the standard. But even if it's not required, it's still considered a good practice and following it can improve the safety of car electronic systems and show customers, regulators and end users the company's commitment to safety.

Gives a pretty detailed run down on what it is etc.


When searching for the ISO I also saw Jan 23 article in Embedded about T2M getting the ISO for certain IP blocks...not us unfortunately haha

But it did make think of T2M as recalled reading something once that BRN engaged them in the early days for Akida.

I presume they still have a relationship / engagement to market and sell Akida as on the Chip Estimate website they had T2M still flagged but maybe outdated?...though is for the IP so would have to be from when we started moving to IP I presume.

Wonder what reach T2M has?

ISO standards are internationally agreed upon by experts. Think of them as a formula that describes the best way of doing something.
ISO standards are extremely important in all industries, especially in Europe. If things or products are not made according to a specific ISO standard, companies may not buy them, because their company regulation requires that.

Anyone done a deep dive on Redpoint AI at all?

No TSE keyword search hits.

Just curious as stumbled on them today and pretty keen on SNN.

Might be nothing but maybe 998 extra eyes could help :LOL:




Spiking Neural Network Research​

Efficiency, robustness, and biological plausibility beyond the state-of-the-art.
Contact Us

Neuromorphic machine learning algorithms​

Detect and track objects in real time, identify unusual behavior in data streams from multiple sensors, and optimize decisions by assessing threat levels and resources.
Redpoint AI specializes in developing spiking neural network (SNN) solutions for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance applications. Our R&D services involve designing and optimizing SNN architectures for real-time object recognition and tracking, anomaly detection, and decision-making tasks. We use the latest SNN algorithms and tools to provide you with efficient, robust, and biologically plausible solutions. Our goal is to help you achieve their ISR objectives with the most advanced and effective SNN technology available.

Detect and Track Objects​

Gain intelligence in real-time

Identify Anomalies​

Bring clarity to noisy and disparate data sources

Make Smarter & Faster Decisions​

Make accurate and effective decisions in complex and dynamic environments

Your mission moves fast​

Gain intelligence in real-time​


As the world becomes more complex and data-rich, it can be challenging to make sense of it all in real-time, particularly in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. That's where Redpoint AI comes in. We specialize in developing cutting-edge spiking neural network (SNN) solutions for object recognition and tracking in ISR. Our R&D services are designed to help our clients maintain a clear picture of what's happening in real-time, by identifying critical information among the noise, making sense of disparate data sources, and keeping up with rapidly changing situations.
Our SNN solutions are highly efficient and robust, capable of processing noisy, incomplete, or ambiguous data from various sensor inputs such as EO/IR cameras and radar. We use the latest SNN algorithms and tools to design and optimize custom architectures that meet our clients' specific needs. By leveraging the power of SNNs, we enable our clients to detect and track objects of interest in real-time, providing critical insights into their movement and behavior.



Detect anomalies​

Bring clarity to noisy and disparate data sources​


Sensor data streams from surveillance cameras, acoustic sensors, or communication networks can be noisy, incomplete, or ambiguous. By leveraging the power of SNNs, we enable our clients to detect and respond to potential security threats or abnormal activities with confidence.
We help you achieve your ISR objectives by identifying critical information among the noise, making sense of disparate data sources, and keeping up with rapidly changing situations. Whether it's detecting suspicious individuals or vehicles, or identifying unusual patterns of communication, our SNN solutions bring clarity to even the most complex and data-rich environments.



Complex data makes for complex decisions​

Make accurate and effective decisions in complex and dynamic environments​


Making informed decisions is critical in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications. SNNs can account for complex interactions between variables, making them well-suited for decision-making tasks that involve multiple factors and variables.
We work closely with clients like you to understand their specific needs and design custom architectures that optimize resource deployment and enable real-time assessment and response to potential threats.

Good afternoon/evening,

One thing is certain, if Qualcomm wish to engage with us if they haven't been already, well, an IP License will surface sooner than later.
They obviously do everything in-house, but I can't see them going via MegaChips or Renesas, but maybe I'm completely wrong like my
ex-partner used to enjoy reminding me about all the time :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:🙃

When you think about the edge, or in our case the far edge, it's fitting that we will be heading out into space and beyond, I wonder if
we venture out too far, will we fall off the edge :ROFLMAO:

Think about MH370, allegedly lying at the bottom of the Indian Ocean, now think about how Akida could really help in deep underwater
mapping, sensing in an AUV....the oceans are the reverse of going out into space, it's an edge that hasn't really been explored at all in real terms.

There are some interesting projects underway in this area, could be a dot or two lurking in this deep underwater surveillance sector.

My opinion anyway.

Tech. (y)

This is from Qualcomm aired today .
It runs for 45 min . I found it all very interesting.

@Diogenese from the 39 minute mark you may find some interest from what’s been discussed on here today

Dr. Vinesh Sukumar, a senior director and head of AI/ML product management at Qualcomm Technologies.

Some guy by the name of Rob Telson liked it too

Tony Dawe mentioned that if someone is using Akida, they wouldn't be keeping it a secret and would be using it in their marketing so I just want one of these bloody dots to start shouting it from the rooftops. Preferably Qualcomm!!

Thanks mate, I honestly forgot what iso cert was.
There is a video somewhere if I remember correctly Anil explaining something about iso. just play the video it's right at the beginning.✌️

Yes so the silence isn't just because of NDA's unfortunately. Tony is pretty much saying that no one has implemented AKIDA in a commercial product yet. Time is ticking on Gen 2 as well - where are those customers who wanted the upgrades. Surely it wouldn't take too long for them to determine that the new features suit their needs (they would have already done extensive testing on Gen 1) so it should just be a re-run with the new tech. There seems to be significant difficulty in signing deals here, regardless of how revolutionary and beneficial AKIDA might be.

Hi All,

Bit more detail about Valeo SCALA 3 LiDAR, they say they are working with new partners, so I am going to take that as we BrainChip are their new partners.

BrainChip is an old Valeo partner.

... the new partners are the leading Asian manufacturer and the leading US robotaxi company ... and there's also Stellantis and GM. Luminar have muddied the waters re the future of Mercedes, but the upcoming Mercedes will be Valeo.

Stellantis owns several brands, including:

Pretty sure Renesas claimed that the chip they taped out in December - the one with Akida Inside is ISO 26262 compliant. I remember also AM being asked during the Q&A of one of his presentations about ISO compliance and he said (paraphrasing) BrainChip wouldn’t have to worry about that.. that that would be taken care of in the higher scheme of things - perhaps by a company in the position to have already be seeking compliance on a whole range of items, a company such as Renesas.
