Valeo’s LiDAR technology, the key to conditionally automated driving, part of the Mercedes-Benz DRIVE PILOT SAE-Level 3 system​

Valeo SCALA® 2, Valeo's second generation LiDAR, plays an important role in Mercedes-Benz DRIVE PILOT system for conditionally automated driving (SAE-Level 3), allowing the driver to delegate under certain conditions the driving task to the car in complete safety.

The new Mercedes-Benz S-Class is the first car in the world to be equipped with this Valeo technology. In December 2021, Mercedes-Benz received the world’s first internationally valid system approval for conditionally automated driving (SAE-Level 3), meeting the demanding legal requirements of UN-R157 for such a system. If the particular national legislation allows it, DRIVE PILOT is able to operate in conditionally automated driving mode at speeds of up to 60 km/h, in heavy traffic or congested situations and on suitable stretches of motorway. DRIVE PILOT will be available in Germany in the first half of 2022. The next step is clear: the car manufacturer plans to apply for regulatory approval in California and Nevada in 2022.
Valeo SCALA® 2 sees what the human eye, cameras and radars cannot see and adapts to all light conditions and changes according to light levels. It is not blinded by sunlight and can see equally well in total darkness.
It measures the distance to surrounding objects to the nearest centimeter, by calculating the time it takes its laser beam to travel to an obstacle and back again. This enables it to build a complete 3D image of the vehicle’s surroundings. The image, called a “point cloud,” is analyzed by sophisticated algorithms to identify all of the objects, allowing the device to distinguish between moving and static objects. It classifies them into different categories, such as cars, trucks, buses, bicycles, motorcycles, pedestrians, infrastructure, and captures their shape and position.
If the objects are moving, it measures their speed and keeps tracking them, even when they are no longer in the driver’s line of sight. It predicts the objects’ behavior and trajectory. But it doesn’t just detect objects: it also anticipates open space where the car can drive safely. It even spots small objects, for example a tire that has fallen on the road. It is equipped with a specific algorithm that recognizes road markings based on their contrast with the road.
With its software, Valeo SCALA® 2 transforms the raw data from the sensor into useful data. It eliminates any data that could alter its calculations, as if it were filtering the information to validate only relevant data. This enables it to cancel out any “echoes” caused by raindrops on its light pulse so that it can see through the rain and measure the density of a rain shower. Its software even allows it to troubleshoot itself. Its exclusive cleaning and heating system is triggered whenever its field of vision is blocked, by dust or ice for example.
Valeo’s LiDAR is the successful combination of high-precision mechanics, optics and electronics with software, algorithms and artificial intelligence, making it reliable, sharp and intelligent. In addition to its technological leadership, Valeo also leads in manufacturing capabilities. The Valeo Group is currently the only player in the world to produce on a large scale an automotive LiDAR scanner*. Valeo SCALA® 2, central to the Mercedes-Benz DRIVE PILOT system, which helps give back drivers time during their journey.
________
* On March 15, 2022, Valeo was recognized by the American institute Frost & Sullivan as a pioneer and key player in LiDAR 3D laser scanners with the 2022 Global Market Leadership Award.

The sentence that got me thinking in the article was:

"We are the world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low-power and high-performance artificial intelligence technology processors that enables a wide array of applications such as self-driving cars, hearing aids, drones, and agricultural equipment. "

They have never written this in a job description before, and one would have a guess and say that AKIDA has already been selected for the use in these applications for certain NDA's. The IP or chips may already be used in some of these applications and will be interesting to see the growth in sales in the next 4C.

Also, does anyone have any dot joins on the application of hearing aids and agricultural equipment?

Haha. Just beat me to it

 

[Xray1]

Thank you FF, it makes sense. However, I can’t see the harm in providing shareholders with some further information. Even if the company could just let shareholders know how many Akida chips are now out there in the real world. This would prevent a lot of wild speculation. It depends on who you listen to but I have seen the number varying from a couple of thousand to a few million. No doubt BrainChip will do more to raise the awareness of their successes soon. They have a gun team that would be working to a strategy. In the meantime, it’s gotta be said that LT Shareholders are demonstrating good levels of patience.
On a different note, it appears that the idea of releasing an Akida dongle has been delayed or dropped. I haven’t heard a peep about it. I think an update is warranted.

I think we were told recently ( few months ago now ) that Tony Dawe was reading our posts and was very busy on a "project " .... maybe the Ras' & Dongle was part of his brief ........... IMO, will be most interesting to see what comes out in the 4C and I hope that Sean H will make his debut known in the market place.

The relevant paragraphs from the Forbes article accompanying the table. “WELCOME TO THE BRAVE NEW WORLD”:

Edge intelligence
Typical IoT devices have surprisingly little processing power because they act as “peripherals” to services running in the cloud or on-premises. These services ingest and analyze sensor data, trigger appropriate actions, send commands back down to devices, and interface with other services. A new generation of smarter edge platforms capable of autonomously running complex application software is now disrupting the peripheral model, which has been the norm for over 20 years.

Autonomous on-device analysis decreases response times while improving reliability and privacy for applications such as anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, wake-word recognition, image classification, and gesture control. Smarter devices also simplify development, shorten TTM, and reduce operating costs by enabling mainstream software development methods that do not require specialized embedded programming techniques. This year, four disruptive technologies combine to accelerate the edge intelligence trend.

Neural processors and accelerators (NPUs) enable edge devices to run surprisingly large ML inference applications. Until recently, math-heavy AI algorithms were practical only on large processors. New ML-accelerated chips enable small IoT devices, including battery-powered ones, to run ML inference applications locally without depending on cloud services. Welcome to the brave new world with AI integrated into the things all around us

AKIDA BALLISTA

 

[jtardif999]

M8 they were still using them in the 90's. I used to watch them take off.....ah the good old days

The RAAF are now testing a new drone called the Ghost Bat entirely made in Australia under a joint venture program with Boeing called the Loyal Wingman (has been reported back on hot crapper previously). There’s a story about it out today in the media. Flys semiautonomously or fully and supports defence of other aircraft. The program has only been up for 3 years fast-tracked.

I am thinking this might have to be my new sign off:

I am thinking perhaps I might have been too conservative on market share so I am doubling up and predicting two tenths of one percent of the 85 trillion US dollar Ai. Market being 170 billion US dollars annually giving a BRNASX share price of $AU134.00.

My opinion and speculation only DYOR

AKIDA BALLISTA

 

[Baisyet]

With all honesty this forum is great so so many great analysis, patent explanation and how we are protected, technical explanation. And they are all those eyes out on every medium of media to see where is BRN been used or will be used, joining the dots. what a community it has become.
our dreams are out there in open and hopping be realized soon.
I think only thing left is some solid announcement and and its overdue i guess.

Utube( boeing cloncurry ) and you can find a video on the smaller drones they are using to test the teaming systems. I have no idea if using Akida or not but the timing is coincidental.
