BRN Discussion Ongoing

Another piece of the Todd Gack mystery falling into place: after consulting Dr Google once again, it now also makes sense to me why a Seinfeld fan who is pretending to be someone else would pick “architect” as his imaginary job:

Just watch the video:

@TheDrooben: Relax, I don’t suspect Larry to be involved in this, unless this is another “Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde”…

But he could have at least given us a hint as to:

@Frangipani yes I did pick that up a few weeks ago when the mysterious "Todd Gack" was mentioned on this forum. Obviously a nom de plume from Seinfeld (aka G-rated Curb Your Enthusiasm). If he really was an architect he should have gone with "Art Vandelay", "Art Corvelay" or "Burt Harbinson". As far as being relaxed.......

On this slide, Nandan mentions that Akida P (top of the range (out)competes $150 chips for the heavy lifting. So what is the cost of Akida IP for top of the range with a full complement of nodes plus TeNNs plus ViT?

Fn: for "GPU" read "Nvidia".

First there was LSTM,
then there was transformers

TeNN sounds like it will be a real winner, enabling the associated processor to offload more of the heavy lifting

On the same slide but in the Arm tech talk presentation, our CMO mentioned that we have a agricultural company who is currently using high end edge processor, would achieve 10x cost reduction if use akida plus a smaller cpu such as cortex m85 or cortex A class.

Fundamentally our technology does seem to have strong competitive advantage over the existing solutions. It is just the time needed for the sales cycle gave the shorters chances to spread negative sentiment before the akida 2.0 become generally and commercially available to the market.

I love the line everything starts on big CPUs or GPUs but end up on edge processing. That is a testimony to brainchip thinking as well.
On the other hand I am just a bit confused how on chip processing is happening, CNN's, RNNs are available for quit a long time and no other company is able process on chip until brainchip comes out with a concept of snn and on chip processing.
Is that Qualcomm can be our EAP partner or they have similarly technology as snn.

Another 1.6m freebies, im glad these guys are hitting their kpis....

Kpi 1- turn up to work
Kpi 2 - double cash receipts in the june quarter

Kool, ill be looking for 80k then in the next 4c, they must have achieved it with a week to go... impressive...


Tongue firmly in cheek of course... think we have lost the battle here, heading toward bottom drawer territory.

On a plus , its friday so its drinking day! Get a couple of days of papering over my true feelings on brn performance .... until it hits me again monday...

This is a vendetta. For the past month or so he's been constantly posting statements like this under every single Brainchip post on LingedIn. He started addressing the issue on LinkedIn about 5 months ago. And Mickle is a Nvidia fanboy. So yeah, maybe architect Todd Gack doesn't live in New York but right here:

Share trader faces jail over ‘pump and dump’ scheme | news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site

https://www.news.com.au/finance/share-trader-pleads-guilty-to-market-manipulation-over-pump-and-dump-scheme/news-story/0eabcbb99e35d1f5d3b55a1aa4d60f46

A Melbourne share trader who used online posts to pump up share prices, then sell them for inflated prices, has become the first person in Australia to be convicted over a “pump and dump” scheme.

Gabriel Govinda, known online as Fibonarchery, used 13 different share trading accounts in the names of friends and relatives to manipulate the share price of 20 different listed stocks, between September 2014 and July 2015.

The 41-year-old traded between the accounts he controlled – known as wash trading – using dummy bids to falsely boost the perceived demand, and ultimately the price, for listed stocks.

He used online posts on hotcrapper to illegally spread information about his wash trades and dummy bids, seeking to pump up share prices, then sell them at a higher price.

In one post he quipped “dummy bids are all part of the fun and games and cat and mouse of the stockmarket!”

Mr Govinda pleaded guilty on Monday to 23 charges of manipulation of listed stocks on the Australian Securities Exchange and 19 of illegal dissemination of information relating to the manipulation.

He faces up to 10 years’ jail on each charge or a fine of up to $765,000, or both.

He is the first person to be convicted of false trading and market rigging, through creating a false or misleading appearance of active trading, under the Corporations Act.

The corporate regulator noted a “concerning trend” of social media posts being used to co-ordinate “pump and dump” schemes, a practice which famously landed Jordan Belfort, the former stockbroker whose story inspired The Wolf of Wall Street film, in jail.

Typically, the activity occurs when a person buys shares in a company and starts an organised program to try and boost the share price, by using social media and online forums to create a sense of excitement in a stock or spread false news about the company’s prospects. They then sell their shares and take a profit, while other shareholders suffer as the share price drops.

“ASIC has recently observed blatant attempts to pump share prices, using posts on social media to announce a target stock, a designated time to buy and a target price or percentage gain to be reached before dumping the shares,” the regulator said.

“In some cases, posts on social media forums may mislead subscribers by suggesting the activity is legal.”

ASIC said it continued to act against this type of market manipulation, which threatened the integrity of markets.

Let's hope ASIC hasn't dropped the ball on shorter manipulation.

As much as I hate share manipulation, we can only blame this on the lack of (or delay in) commercial uptake. We gave the shorters a crack in the armour and they have punched their way through.

I only hope that in the near future, our expectations are met and the news starts to flow. We’ve read the clues, let’s hope the leads were solid.

NOVELDA’s latest UWB radar presence sensor consumes less than 100 µW​

NOVELDA has unveiled a new low-power ultra-wideband (UWB) radar presence sensor with a power consumption of under 100 µW and designed to operate on two AAA batteries for up to four years.
We first wrote about NOVELDA in 2021 where we covered their UWB X4 presence sensor capable of detecting submillimeter movements with a power consumption of under 2mW. The company has further optimized the technology and has come up with a 30x5mm module capable of doing the same with 0.1mW power consumption.

The sensor is said to work behind various materials such as plastics, tempered glass, and ceramics, the detection zone size and shape can be adjusted to meet the application requirements, and the device provides accurate angle and distance information.
The new ultra-low power UWB radar presence sensor will mostly be useful for energy/resource savings, lengthening a product’s life cycle, and health monitoring with some of the potential applications including:

• Consumer electronic devices with improved energy efficiency and device performance. For example, an LCD screen lifetime could be extended up to 10 years with the UWB sensor.
• Smart hygiene appliances such as the ones found in public restrooms, for instance, faucets and smart toilets, in order to reduce water consumption.
• Lighting control, security systems, smart door locks, and other building automation use cases such as desk occupancy detection
• Breathing motion detection at a range of up to 10 meters in health monitoring devices.
• Precise distance and angle measurement to multiple targets to estimate the number of people in a specific area.
• Battery-powered appliances that can last up to 4 years with just two AAA batteries

Samples of the new NOVELDA presence sensor will be available in Q3 2023, while the final product will only launch in mid-2024. NOVELDA made the announcement as they are demonstrating a prototype at the Sensors Converge Expo 2023 until June 22. A few more details may be found in the press release.

Think this is just a MCU…
