The Euro was originally going to be called the EMU (European Monetary Union) but it was to Australian so they decided on the Euro without knowing that was an aussie wallaby.Edit: Right after hitting the send button, it occurred to me that this might be a wallaby rather than a roo… Sorry!
Probably a EURO
Mmmh, I wonder why, of all animals, iniVation would pick an image of kangaroo to illustrate the key features of their all-new Aeveon sensor technology…
For a company based in Switzerland, obvious choices would have been a dairy cow, an Alpine ibex, a chamois, an Alpine marmot or a golden eagle.
Of course it could be mere coincidence or even a red herring. But how probable is that?

Pioneers in neuromorphic vision
The founders of iniVation invented the field of neuromorphic vision, which mimics key features of the human visual system. Our patented Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS) transmits binary pixel-level change events, at microsecond time resolution. This approach is equivalent to a high-speed camera at thousands of frames per second – but with far less data. The advantages include:
High speed (equivalent 10k+ fps) and very low latency (< 1 ms)
High dynamic range (over 120 dB)
Longer battery life
Reduced data rate
Aeveon™ – Redefining vision sensing
With our all-new Aeveon™technology, we are changing the game again. A new Adaptive Event Vision™ unified pixel architecture enables every pixel to generate multiple types of events:
Binary change events as with the legacy DVS
Multi-bit change events
Full frame readout
Region events
A state-of-the-art stacked sensor design with massively parallel Adaptive Event Cores produces a rich, highly compressed output stream. It combines the speed advantages of legacy DVS with the high fidelity of frame-based sensors.
Key Features
Lossless image reconstruction using adaptive multi-bit events.
Multiple dynamic regions of interest (ROIs) enable valuable bandwidth to be focused on the most critical regions of the scene, and updated on-the-fly.
On-sensor fast lossless compression, based on regions and motion information, saving up to 80% data.
Self-adapting smart pixels provide native high-dynamic range (HDR) output and minimize noise, particularly in low light.
Real world integration features
Anti Flicker
Remove artefacts caused by illumination variation
Improve quality for consumer imaging and automotive
Small pixel size enables high resolution
Stacked design enables pixels down to 1.5 µm or less
Full 1:1 events or frames from every pixel
Flexible architecture
Can be used directly with custom pixels (infrared, automotive, etc.)
Software compatibility
Works with all existing frame-based and event-based vision software

Coincidence Toshiba has popped up a couple times this weekend.https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jaso...2-Jtvn?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios

Brainchip not specifically mentioned in the article itself, but this guy who is director of engineering at TOSHIBA mentioned us in his post.

Check out this link:
Next-Level Neuromorphic Computing: Intel Lab's Loihi 2 Chip
Intel Lab’s Loihi 2 chip delivers outstanding performance & new features, including an open-source, community-driven neuromorphic computing framework.www.intel.com
It's nice to get a mention here but it's interesting how IBM's chip and Intel's Loihi 2 get kudos over AKIDA (I recall posters suspecting that Intel was perhaps deferring to AKIDA as the superior chip). Do we actually have a 3 year lead because it raises the old fear that one of the big companies will run over us with neuromorphic technology.
Is it possible that potential customers are waiting until the last minute to see which horse to back in the neuromorphic race?
Some of their coin may be coming from the takeover?Coincidence Toshiba has popped up a couple times this weekend.
I read a blog article by this company a couple days ago and didnt think too much about it other than interesting....after seeing the Toshiba Dir of Engineering comment, thought I find the blog again and post as a little more relevant.
My bold....they certainly got some coin haha

Toshiba is a global leader in various technology fields, such as energy, infrastructure, electronics and digital solutions. The company’s success is based on its continuous investment in research and development (R&D) to create innovative products and services that meet the needs of customers and society.
According to its financial data, Toshiba spent approximately 1.5 trillion Japanese yen (about 13 billion US dollars) on R&D in the fiscal year 2021, which accounted for 4.9% of its sales. This ratio is higher than the average R&D expenditure as % of the revenue of other major Japanese companies in the ICT industry, which was 3.8% in the fiscal year 2020.
Toshiba’s R&D strategy focuses on three key areas: core, growth, and frontier technologies. Core technologies are the foundation of Toshiba’s business domains, such as power systems, industrial systems, electronic devices and storage devices. Growth technologies are the drivers of Toshiba’s future growth, such as artificial intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), robotics and quantum cryptography. Frontier technologies are the exploratory fields that Toshiba aims to create new value and markets, such as biotechnology, neuromorphic computing and fusion energy.
Toshiba conducts its R&D activities through various channels, such as its own research laboratories, joint research with universities and other institutions, collaboration with customers and partners, and participation in national and international projects. Some of the recent achievements of Toshiba’s R&D include:
See also What are the benefits of using a licensing revenue model?
- Developing a high-performance AI processor that can perform complex deep learning tasks at high speed and low power consumption.
- Launching a new generation of NAND flash memory that can store up to 1 terabyte of data in a single chip.
- Establishing a world record for continuous operation of a nuclear fusion reactor for 20 seconds at a plasma temperature of over 100 million degrees Celsius.
- Introducing a digital transformation platform that can integrate data from various sources and provide advanced analytics and solutions for various industries.
Toshiba’s R&D efforts are aimed at enhancing its competitiveness and profitability and contributing to social good and environmental sustainability. Toshiba’s vision is to become a “cyber-physical systems (CPS) technology company” that can create value by connecting the physical and digital worlds. By investing in R&D, Toshiba hopes to realize this vision and achieve its corporate motto: “Committed to People, Committed to the Future.”
Suggest it would be these guys.
Oh! You peeked!To me Both your balls are crystal
Could be a Tammar Wallaby. Native to WA...
According to Sean anything neuromorphic is power efficient.
I wouldn't be concerned about Intel and IBM, as they probably won't sell their technology as IP.
Don't bother with these cry babies, they will only cry more when you give them attention. It's much simpler just to put them on ignore and they will eventually grow tired of crying when nobody is listening.
So that must be the real reason, then, why the Currency ASSociation Of Wealth Amassing Regions in Yurope never made it past the shortlist! Silly me - I had always assumed the acronym was simply deemed too long to pronounce and to fit on a coin.The Euro was originally going to be called the EMU (European Monetary Union) but it was to Australian so they decided on the Euro without knowing that was an aussie wallaby.
Yeah, that's what I thought. Why then does everyone (not here) always defer to Loihi as the latest and greatest, is it simply because Intel is better known than Brainchip?
