7. LAGUNA HILLS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 6, 2023 / BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX:BRN)(OTCQX:BRCHF)(ADR:BCHPY), the world's first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, neuromorphic AI IP, today announced the second generation of its Akidaā¢ platform that drives extremely efficient and intelligent edge devices for the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) solutions and services market that is expected to be $1T+ by 2030. This hyper-efficient yet powerful neural processing system, architected for embedded Edge AI applications, now adds efficient 8-bit processing to go with advanced capabilities such as time domain convolutions and vision transformer acceleration, for an unprecedented level of performance in sub-watt devices, taking them from perception towards cognition.
The second-generation of Akida now includes Temporal Event Based Neural Nets (TENN) spatial-temporal convolutions that supercharge the processing of raw time-continuous streaming data, such as video analytics, target tracking, audio classification, analysis of MRI and CT scans for vital signs prediction, and time series analytics used in forecasting, and predictive maintenance. These capabilities are critically needed in industrial, automotive, digital health, smart home and smart city applications. The TENNs allow for radically simpler implementations by consuming raw data directly from sensors - drastically reduces model size and operations performed, while maintaining very high accuracy. This can shrink design cycles and dramatically lower the cost of development.
Another addition to the second generation of Akida is Vision Transformers (ViT) acceleration, a leading edge neural network that has been shown to perform extremely well on various computer vision tasks, such as image classification, object detection, and semantic segmentation. This powerful acceleration, combined with Akida's ability to process multiple layers simultaneously and hardware support for skip connections, allows it to self-manage the execution of complex networks like RESNET-50 completely in the neural processor without CPU intervention and minimizes system load.
The Akida IP platform has a unique ability to learn on the device for continuous improvement and data-less customization that improves security and privacy. This, combined with the efficiency and performance available, enable very differentiated solutions that until now have not been possible. These include secure, small form factor devices like hearable and wearable devices, that take raw audio input, medical devices for monitoring heart and respiratory rates and other vitals that consume only microwatts of power. This can scale up to HD-resolution vision solutions delivered through high-value, battery-operated or fanless devices enabling a wide variety of applications from surveillance systems to factory management and augmented reality to scale effectively.
"We see an increasing demand for real-time, on-device, intelligence in AI applications powered by our MCUs and the need to make sensors smarter for industrial and IoT devices," said Roger Wendelken, Senior Vice President in Renesas' IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit. "We licensed Akida neural processors because of their unique neuromorphic approach to bring hyper-efficient acceleration for today's mainstream AI models at the edge. With the addition of advanced temporal convolution and vision transformers, we can see how low-power MCUs can revolutionize vision, perception, and predictive applications in wide variety of markets like industrial and consumer IoT and personalized healthcare, just to name a few."
"Advancements in AI require parallel advancements in on-device learning capabilities while simultaneously overcoming the challenges of efficiency, scalability, and latency," said Richard Wawrzyniak, principal analyst at Semico Research. "BrainChip has demonstrated the ability to create a truly intelligent edge with Akida and moves the needle even more in terms of how Edge AI solutions are developed and deployed. The benefits of on-chip AI from a performance and cost perspective are hard to deny." - BrainChip Introduces Second-Generation Akida Platform

16. 2023 ā TATA CONSULTING SERVICES CONTINUE THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH BRAINCHIP AND RECEIVE CONGRATULATIONS ON THEIR SUCCESSFUL WORK BY ANIL MANKAR VIA SOCIAL MEDIA -
Sounak Dey
Senior Scientist, Neuromorphic Computing and Spiking Neural Network, TCS Research
Emergence of small satellites for earth observation missions has opened up new horizons for space research but at the same time posed newer challenges of limited power and compute resource arising out of the size & weight constraints imposed by these satellites. In our paper, titled "Low Power & Low Latency Cloud Cover Detection in Small Satellites Using On-board Neuromorphic Processors", accepted at #IJCNN 2023, a premier AI conference, we have shown how a multistage CNN trained on multispectral Earth observation images for Cloud Cover Detection, can be converted into an SNN using the CNN2SNN conversion toolkit of Brainchip. Further, the converted SNN running on AKIDA neuromorphic platform can achieve 95.46% accuracy while power consumption and latency are found to be upto 230x & 7x more efficient than the CNN running on a Jetson TX2.

18. BRAINCHIPāS AKIDA TECHNOLOGY MAKES AUTONOMOUS SATELLITE REPAIR ROBOTS POSSIBLE AND Gilles BEZARD FROM BRAINCHIPāS FRENCH OFFICE SHARED ANT61s SOCIAL MEDIA POST:
ā A neuromorphic chip inspired by the human mind? It seems like a concept from a sci-fi novel, yet it's the perfect core for our cutting-edge space robot!
In 2025, we plan to launch our repair robot to orbit. Akin to the skilled droids from Star Wars, it will be repairing a spacecraft. Our robot needs an AI-driven brain that surpasses the limitations of current technology to perform complex repair tasks in the unforgiving vacuum of space.
We needed something exceptional.
We teamed up with BrainChip , the pioneers behind the neuromorphic Akida AI chip. This cutting-edge chip enables our robots to perceive and interact with their surroundings in space, learning in the process.
Our robot's brain, powered by this groundbreaking technology, is set to launch into orbit in January 2024 aboard the Space Machines Company spacecraft. Once there, we will refine our robot's vision system, training with a video feed directly from the satellite's cameras.
Working with the Brainchip team on this mission was a great pleasure! They supported us along the way, providing their chips and engineering advice.
In the coming weeks, we'll tell you more about the chip's capabilities and what we had to do to space-qualify our system.
Stay in touch.

Here is an interesting statistic for us all to ponder: "Since the end of 2009, the total debt owed by governments, business and households has risen by 90%, according to the Federal Reserve."
This debt was more comforting in the previous years when the world had central banks injecting unheralded amounts of funds into the markets, and less comforting in present times when rates have been pumped up to guard against inflation.
All this and more is contained within this weeks Chris Ciovacco video.
If you choose to watch, and once again I recommend it, put the playback speed up to 1.5 because he speaks somewhat slowly.

I would urge everyone to read this insightful and well researched article following on from a discussion here yesterday around Seeing Machines.
It also covers in detail the Occula Neural processing unit which is what Seeing Machines are using.
From humble beginnings in Canberra it appears that Seeing Machines are a serious player in the Diver Monitoring System market.
Is DMS going to prove to be more important than full autonomy??
Enjoy you Sunday read.
Screen shot from the video within the article. Article is from 17th Jan 2022.
No doubt @Diogenese could bring out the big club for these figures but Ford and VW appear to be very happy.

I could not agree any more that what you have said they are basically treating us as
( who cares about the shareholders)
Good afternoon,
The points you have raised I believe are fair.
" This copy and paste mentality is an insult to all BRN holders and needs to be corrected when the next 4C is released."
Yes, it does reflect a touch of laziness or arrogance, but I think in acknowledging your observation, I would like to say that
the companies position remains that very goal, as in, more of the same, the status quo hasn't changed.
I won't be attending this AGM in person, if Anil was attending I would have made a special effort, if Duy Loan Le attends make
sure you talk with her and welcome her to our company from a shareholders perspective.
The question I'd like to pose today is this, the bonuses that have been issued throughout the year or quarter, what milestone/s
were triggered to release these to the staff.
I have a pretty good idea and they aren't attached to any income (revenue) bearing performance to date, but more, what's been
created that holds the key to future revenue streams that we will all enjoy, the engineering staff, the research staff have all been
expanded upon, the work ethic is unrelenting, having a small team in comparison to other companies within this tech space, what
the Brainchip team has achieved to date, advancing our technical position in such a short timeframe is worth the rewards in my
opinion.
Correct me if I'm totally wrong here, but I don't recall the company issuing any facts as to what the confidential milestone/s the
staff concerned had to achieve, but clearly they have, I totally trust Peter and his judgement, if he believes that the bonuses were/are
warranted, well then, I sleep easy in knowing that to be a fair and reasonable decision that he and the Board have made.

Thank you for your post Tech.Good afternoon,
The points you have raised I believe are fair.
" This copy and paste mentality is an insult to all BRN holders and needs to be corrected when the next 4C is released."
Yes, it does reflect a touch of laziness or arrogance, but I think in acknowledging your observation, I would like to say that
the companies position remains that very goal, as in, more of the same, the status quo hasn't changed.
I won't be attending this AGM in person, if Anil was attending I would have made a special effort, if Duy Loan Le attends make
sure you talk with her and welcome her to our company from a shareholders perspective.
The question I'd like to pose today is this, the bonuses that have been issued throughout the year or quarter, what milestone/s
were triggered to release these to the staff.
I have a pretty good idea and they aren't attached to any income (revenue) bearing performance to date, but more, what's been
created that holds the key to future revenue streams that we will all enjoy, the engineering staff, the research staff have all been
expanded upon, the work ethic is unrelenting, having a small team in comparison to other companies within this tech space, what
the Brainchip team has achieved to date, advancing our technical position in such a short timeframe is worth the rewards in my
opinion.

were triggered to release these to the staff.
Iām okay with no revenue at this point.
The only one thing I believe to trigger bonuses in this climate is IP deals and better communication from our company.
Our technology has been commercially available for over 2 years.
We have a world class sales team that need to covert lookers into buyers.
My expectations would have been at lest one IP deal from the last 12 months.
In my view if thereās no revenue then there must have IP deals.

7. LAGUNA HILLS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 6, 2023 / BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX:BRN)(OTCQX:BRCHF)(ADR:BCHPY), the world's first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, neuromorphic AI IP, today announced the second generation of its Akidaā¢ platform that drives extremely efficient and intelligent edge devices for the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) solutions and services market that is expected to be $1T+ by 2030. This hyper-efficient yet powerful neural processing system, architected for embedded Edge AI applications, now adds efficient 8-bit processing to go with advanced capabilities such as time domain convolutions and vision transformer acceleration, for an unprecedented level of performance in sub-watt devices, taking them from perception towards cognition.
The second-generation of Akida now includes Temporal Event Based Neural Nets (TENN) spatial-temporal convolutions that supercharge the processing of raw time-continuous streaming data, such as video analytics, target tracking, audio classification, analysis of MRI and CT scans for vital signs prediction, and time series analytics used in forecasting, and predictive maintenance. These capabilities are critically needed in industrial, automotive, digital health, smart home and smart city applications. The TENNs allow for radically simpler implementations by consuming raw data directly from sensors - drastically reduces model size and operations performed, while maintaining very high accuracy. This can shrink design cycles and dramatically lower the cost of development.
Another addition to the second generation of Akida is Vision Transformers (ViT) acceleration, a leading edge neural network that has been shown to perform extremely well on various computer vision tasks, such as image classification, object detection, and semantic segmentation. This powerful acceleration, combined with Akida's ability to process multiple layers simultaneously and hardware support for skip connections, allows it to self-manage the execution of complex networks like RESNET-50 completely in the neural processor without CPU intervention and minimizes system load.
The Akida IP platform has a unique ability to learn on the device for continuous improvement and data-less customization that improves security and privacy. This, combined with the efficiency and performance available, enable very differentiated solutions that until now have not been possible. These include secure, small form factor devices like hearable and wearable devices, that take raw audio input, medical devices for monitoring heart and respiratory rates and other vitals that consume only microwatts of power. This can scale up to HD-resolution vision solutions delivered through high-value, battery-operated or fanless devices enabling a wide variety of applications from surveillance systems to factory management and augmented reality to scale effectively.
"We see an increasing demand for real-time, on-device, intelligence in AI applications powered by our MCUs and the need to make sensors smarter for industrial and IoT devices," said Roger Wendelken, Senior Vice President in Renesas' IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit. "We licensed Akida neural processors because of their unique neuromorphic approach to bring hyper-efficient acceleration for today's mainstream AI models at the edge. With the addition of advanced temporal convolution and vision transformers, we can see how low-power MCUs can revolutionize vision, perception, and predictive applications in wide variety of markets like industrial and consumer IoT and personalized healthcare, just to name a few."
"Advancements in AI require parallel advancements in on-device learning capabilities while simultaneously overcoming the challenges of efficiency, scalability, and latency," said Richard Wawrzyniak, principal analyst at Semico Research. "BrainChip has demonstrated the ability to create a truly intelligent edge with Akida and moves the needle even more in terms of how Edge AI solutions are developed and deployed. The benefits of on-chip AI from a performance and cost perspective are hard to deny." - BrainChip Introduces Second-Generation Akida Platform

Senior Scientist, Neuromorphic Computing and Spiking Neural Network, TCS Research
Emergence of small satellites for earth observation missions has opened up new horizons for space research but at the same time posed newer challenges of limited power and compute resource arising out of the size & weight constraints imposed by these satellites. In our paper, titled "Low Power & Low Latency Cloud Cover Detection in Small Satellites Using On-board Neuromorphic Processors", accepted at #IJCNN 2023, a premier AI conference, we have shown how a multistage CNN trained on multispectral Earth observation images for Cloud Cover Detection, can be converted into an SNN using the CNN2SNN conversion toolkit of Brainchip. Further, the converted SNN running on AKIDA neuromorphic platform can achieve 95.46% accuracy while power consumption and latency are found to be upto 230x & 7x more efficient than the CNN running on a Jetson TX2.

ā A neuromorphic chip inspired by the human mind? It seems like a concept from a sci-fi novel, yet it's the perfect core for our cutting-edge space robot!
In 2025, we plan to launch our repair robot to orbit. Akin to the skilled droids from Star Wars, it will be repairing a spacecraft. Our robot needs an AI-driven brain that surpasses the limitations of current technology to perform complex repair tasks in the unforgiving vacuum of space.
We needed something exceptional.
We teamed up with BrainChip , the pioneers behind the neuromorphic Akida AI chip. This cutting-edge chip enables our robots to perceive and interact with their surroundings in space, learning in the process.
Our robot's brain, powered by this groundbreaking technology, is set to launch into orbit in January 2024 aboard the Space Machines Company spacecraft. Once there, we will refine our robot's vision system, training with a video feed directly from the satellite's cameras.
Working with the Brainchip team on this mission was a great pleasure! They supported us along the way, providing their chips and engineering advice.
In the coming weeks, we'll tell you more about the chip's capabilities and what we had to do to space-qualify our system.

Before anyone react with negativity I am still a holder but the market is behaving like that.
The only thing I want to say without revenue we will always need support from the management on necessary updates.if there is no update on asx that is only providing fuel to shorters especially when revenue is absent even after 2 years of commercialisation of akida 1000.
On the other hand there is never a set formula for success and failures are the learning curves to be successful. I have 100% faith in technology and will wait till it strikes.

Despite being launched in 2016, the Cortex-M23 remains ARMās most power-efficient Cortex-M CPU and has been updated to include additional diagnostic coverage for safety-critical applications. Examples include ultrasonic parking sensors for parking assistance, tire pressure and rain sensors, lighting and LED controllers for headlights and brake lights. Many of these applications require ASIL B, a medium level of integrity.
The updated Cortex-M23 adds transient fault protection to address this issue for applications that are constrained by area and cost where a dual-core lockstep approach would be undesirable. It also adds interface protection for the detection of faults at the boundary of the CPU, removing more work at the system level for chip designers.
The use of a Software Test Library for Cortex-M23 would also provide more diagnostic coverage of permanent faults, complementing the internal core safety mechanisms. These additional features have no impact on benchmark performance compared to the previous Cortex-M23, making adoption simpler.
For applications where dual-core lockstep is required, there is a new Dual Core Lockstep application note specific to Cortex-M23. This document gives guidance on how to implement this feature on Cortex-M23 and what to watch out for when implementing it. This might also be appropriate for an ASIL B application if there is additional die area and power available for a dual core design.

ARM has updated its seven year old Cortex-M23 microcontroller with functional safety, completing the support across the range of M-class controllers.
To speed up time-to-market for automotive partners, ARM has been adding more functional safety capabilities to M-profile cores and certifying them with an external assessor for ISO 26262. The updated Cortex-M23 means the full portfolio of Cortex-M microcontrollers, including Cortex-M85 and Cortex-M55, now include functional safety features.Despite being launched in 2016, the Cortex-M23 remains ARMās most power-efficient Cortex-M CPU and has been updated to include additional diagnostic coverage for safety-critical applications. Examples include ultrasonic parking sensors for parking assistance, tire pressure and rain sensors, lighting and LED controllers for headlights and brake lights. Many of these applications require ASIL B, a medium level of integrity.

The updated Cortex-M23 adds transient fault protection to address this issue for applications that are constrained by area and cost where a dual-core lockstep approach would be undesirable. It also adds interface protection for the detection of faults at the boundary of the CPU, removing more work at the system level for chip designers.
The use of a Software Test Library for Cortex-M23 would also provide more diagnostic coverage of permanent faults, complementing the internal core safety mechanisms. These additional features have no impact on benchmark performance compared to the previous Cortex-M23, making adoption simpler.
For applications where dual-core lockstep is required, there is a new Dual Core Lockstep application note specific to Cortex-M23. This document gives guidance on how to implement this feature on Cortex-M23 and what to watch out for when implementing it. This might also be appropriate for an ASIL B application if there is additional die area and power available for a dual core design.
