Good Morning Chippers,

There was some talk here about the Indian moon landing...

Interesting short article on rough cost of said mission and global space budgets generally.

It's good to see they don't use radio frequency in this design. As some cheap electronics can jam the gun from firing also easily make it fire also.
Or a decent full duplex sdr is all you need to compromise other versions of smart guns.
Looking forward to akida enabled sdr

BRN has finally hit a fork in the road.

I believe all shareholders are expecting 1 plus IP deals within 6 months of the release of 2.0.

Akida 2.0 was designed based on customers requirements.

The time has come for BRN to convert lookers into buyers and become a real AI player.

My view is 6 months is enough time from release to make my decision to continue with current management or not.

Current customers would have made their decisions on BRN already and are just waiting for the official 2.0 release.

I personally believe the sales team have every right to ask for the business now, particularly because the 2.0 was designed based on the their requirements.

If the customers are not prepared to sign then I think either management needs to change or BRN to be sold off.

You must have signed IP deals in the order bank to progress forward.

Time will tell.

I agreed with your post ............ imo if the Co doesn't produce IP revenue / contracts before the next AGM then I will be seriously considering a " Strike 2 " scenario.

Vivotek using Brainchip. ⚡

Vivotek unveils edge computing facial recognition camera​

Vivotek unveils edge computing facial recognition camera

A trio of edge AI developers have revealed new technologies that bring biometric storage and processing close to the place of application. They include a new camera from Vivotek, a family of vision-processing chips from Hailo, and a real-time data processing platform from BrainChip.
Vivotek has launched its first facial recognition camera, FD9387-FR-v2, that combines edge computing to identify gender and age from video footage even when people wear masks. The company says it can store up to 10,000 profiles with a 99 percent accuracy rate and is compliant with the U.S. National Defense Authorization Act.

The FD9387-FR-v2 Facial Recognition Camera from Vivotek integrates the SAFR Inside AI facial recognition platform from RealNetworks, Inc.
Features include real-time facial detection and tracking, early warning of strange faces, image privacy mode for sensitive areas, strong cybersecurity protection with encrypted data storage and transmission.
The Vivotek FD9387-FR-v2 Facial Recognition Camera suits building banks’, retailers, and buildings’ automation/access control systems. For example, it can integrate with business intelligence (BI) services to send real-time notifications when VIP customers enter the store.
Additionally, it helps track traffic in and out of smart buildings, adding an extra layer of security. Unauthorized visitors can be reported and recorded for future reference.
Nah, re-read it..

Yes.

Akida 1 was priced according to performance, the more nodes a customer licensed, the higher the royalty. So now we have extended the upper end performance with Akida 2, the royalties should also increase with performance.

Akida 2 is denominated in 3 flavours Akida 2E, Akida 2S, and Akida 2P all with TeNN.

Each flavour is sub-divided by the number of nodes:
E has 1 to 4 nodes;
S has 2 to 8 nodes;
P has 8 to 128 nodes with optional ViT.

This is in addition to Akida 1 (available with up to 20 nodes) and Akida 1.5 probably with the same node options as Akida 1, but without the processor.

https://brainchip.com/akida2-0/

The 2nd generation IP platform will support a very wide range of market verticals and will be delivered in three classes of product.​


Akida-E: Extremely energy-efficient, for always on operation very close to, or at sensors.
Akida-S: Integration into MCU or other general purpose platforms that are used in broad variety of sensor-related applications
Akida-P: Mid-range to higher end configurations with optional vision transformers for ground breaking and yet efficient performance
.

So there will be a range of royalty rates depending on the selected model and "horsepower".
Dio,

What’s your view on whether customers have to restart the production cycle with Gen 2?

Ps- also see our partnership with si-five and their x280 intelligence series combined with us and their collaboration with NASA and Microchip. Sorry, on an i-pad now and it sucks. 🛼
Bravo, love your contributions ❤️

[QUOTE="Cartagena,

Another way to look at this is this way.

I sit on a board of a small not for profit. Every month the CEO provides his report. Ultimately we approve his approach. Now our constitution prohibits the CEO from recruiting additional staff but either way the board would need to sign off the on going expansion of a business. Now under Australian corporation laws this is where the directors earn their $$$$. They must balance their responsibilities against the law surround financial accountability. So not only would Sean need to have a justification for the hire he would need to present a board pack to the board detailing the risks and benefits along with timeframe. So unless the directors arnt asking the hard questions I am satisfied that the flow of revenue must be, based on what they have before them, either foreseeable or is part of a long term strategic plan ( which could involve further revenue raises I agree), but this plan would then be reviewable and persons held to account if fundamentally wrong. So yes more money leaving than going but I am confident that the Board can see the “tipping point” (little nod to FF) on their plan and this is just another step towards it.

No Akida in SC1260.

Akida is inside SC1220 and SC1240a.
Even better... it appears that these products are available now.

The blind, withered, and oppressed optimist in me hopes that several active customers didn't elect to defer their evaluation of BRN's tech until after the expected release of Akida 2.0 this week. After all, why would they reiterate this if it wasn't all active customers...

I don’t think the two are mutually exclusive. I’d expect another announcement about 2000.
