This sounds a lot like Akida. Thinking back to the demonstrations where they identified different fruits…
No doubt this huge cash injection will help Microchip build NASA's HPSC (High-Performance Spaceflight Computer) chip with initial availability in 2024.
Bearing in mind, the HPSC will use an 8-core, SiFive 'Intelligence' X280 RISC-V vector core. And because of that I am very confident that we'll receive an announcement sooner or later confirming SiFive X280 having been integrated with either Akida-S or Akida-P and following that confirmation of our inclusion in NASA's HPSC.
BTW, the HSPC won't just be for space missions but will also be utilised in application on Earth such as defense, commercial aviation, robotics, medical equipment, etc.

"I suppose they could use software for an ICE, but surely there must be a better way for EVs?"
Pursuing technology, that only really works with ICE, at this stage of the game (while I disagree with a pure EV future) doesn't really make sense..

This seems to be the relevant Valeo patent. It is bereft of any reference to spikes.
US2023146935A1 CONTENT CAPTURE OF AN ENVIRONMENT OF A VEHICLE USING A PRIORI CONFIDENCE LEVELS
A method for the content capture of an environment of a vehicle is disclosed. The method uses an artificial intelligence neural network, on the basis of a point cloud generated by an environment sensor of the vehicle. The method involves performing reference measurements by the environment sensor to capture reference objects depending on positions in the environment in relation to the environment sensor, generating confidence values depending on positions in the environment in relation to the environment sensor on the basis of the reference measurements by the environment sensor to capture the reference objects, training the artificial intelligence for the content capture of the environment on the basis of training point clouds for the environment sensor, capturing the environment by the environment sensor to generate the point cloud, and processing the point cloud generated by the environment sensor using the trained artificial intelligence for the content capture of the environment.

VConclusion
We have presented CNN to SNN conversion and simulation that adapts existing CNN building blocks to simulate spiking behavior for a complex real world application. We have shown that SNNs can be applied to complex tasks such as object detection and achieve comparable performance while achieving much better energy efficiency when implemented in hardware. This is a nascent research area, and we aim to progress from simulations to hardware implementation to realize the full potential of SNNs using other vital techniques such as event-based processing, differential signal processing, power-saving using sparsity, and low activation of neurons.

If we are involved, Sennheiser could well be one of the mystery hearing aid customers we are working with behind an NDA.
Musicians and audiophiles worldwide are familiar with Sennheiser headphones, speakers and microphones, but may not be aware that the world’s largest hearing aid manufacturer Sonova acquired Sennheiser’s consumer electronics business in 2021 and entered the OTC hearing aid market under the Sennheiser brand name last year. Sennheiser’s professional audio division (which includes Sennheiser Mobility) continues to remain family-owned.
Sonova acquires Sennheiser Consumer Business
Both companies will work together under the Sennheiser brand in the future

Sonova acquires Sennheiser Consumer Business
Sennheiser CompanyNews7 mei 2021
Both companies will work together under the Sennheiser brand in the future
Sennheiser and the Sonova Holding AG with headquarters in Stäfa, Switzerland, today announced their future cooperation under the Sennheiser brand. The global provider of medical hearing solutions will fully take over Sennheiser's Consumer Electronics business. Subject to regulatory approval, the plan is to complete the transfer of the business to Sonova by the end of 2021. Sennheiser had announced in February that it would focus on the Professional business in the future while seeking a partner for the Consumer Electronics business.Consumer Electronics products from Sennheiser stand for the best sound and a unique audio experience. With the takeover of the Sennheiser Consumer business, Sonova is adding headphones and soundbars to its hearing care portfolio, which includes hearing aids and cochlear implants, among other hearing solutions. Sonova will leverage the complementary competencies of both companies to strengthen and further expand its business areas in the future. Sennheiser's many years of expertise as one of the world's leading companies in the audio industry and the resulting reputation and appeal of the brand are an excellent complement to Sonova's extensive technological and audiological expertise in the field of medical hearing solutions. A permanent cooperation is planned under the joint Sennheiser brand umbrella in order to continue offering Sennheiser customers first-class audio solutions in the future. A license agreement for future use of the Sennheiser brand has been made.
"We couldn't have asked for a better partner than Sonova for our Consumer Electronics business," says Daniel Sennheiser, co-CEO at Sennheiser. "Sonova is a strong, well-positioned company. Not only do we share a passion for unique audio experiences, we also share very similar corporate values. This gives us an excellent foundation for a successful future together." Co-CEO Dr. Andreas Sennheiser adds: "The combination of our strengths provides an very good starting point for future growth. We are convinced that Sonova will strengthen the Sennheiser Consumer Business in the long term and capture the major growth opportunities." Both partners see great potential in particular in the market for speech-enhanced hearables and for true wireless and audiophile headphones.
As part of the partnership, a complete transfer of operations of the Consumer Electronics business to Sonova is planned. This will be aligned with the Sennheiser works councils. For the employees who will transfer to Sonova, the move to the internationally operating and well-positioned company, headquartered in Switzerland, opens up very good opportunities for the future. Currently, a total of around 600 Sennheiser employees works for the Sennheiser consumer business.
Arnd Kaldowski, CEO of Sonova, says: “I am very pleased that Sennheiser has chosen Sonova to further develop the well-renowned Consumer Division. We look forward to welcoming our new colleagues and to building on the combined strengths of both organizations to successfully shape our joint future. The fast-growing market for personal audio devices is rapidly evolving. Combining our audiological expertise with Sennheiser’s know-how in sound delivery, their great reputation as well as their high-quality products will allow us to expand our offering and to create important touchpoints with consumers earlier in their hearing journey. Combining our market-leading technology with the strong brand and well-established distribution network of Sennheiser creates a strong foundation for future growth.”
The Sennheiser brand has been a synonym for first-class sound and excellent product quality for over 75 years. Sonova will also take over the development and production areas of Sennheiser Consumer Electronics so that Sennheiser customers will continue to benefit from this in the future.
With the partnership for the Consumer business, Sennheiser will now concentrate its own strengths and resources on the Pro Audio, Business Communications and Neumann business areas. In these three business units, the company plans to continue to grow at an above-average rate under its own power and to expand its already strong position in the global market. In addition, Sennheiser will successively expand its business units.

Valeo SCALA3 lidar: improving the reliability of autonomous driving
Lidar is an important part of the car's autonomous driving system, allowing the vehicle to detect and respond to obstacles in the surrounding environment, which is difficult to achieve with other sensing systems. For example, lidar sensors produce more accurate and comprehensive images compared to millimeter-wave radar; they have a wider detection range than ultrasonic sensors; and they can render images in adverse weather and lighting conditions compared to cameras. Better results. In addition, lidar systems can better generate real-time visualization information for autonomous vehicles. Valeo SCALA3 is Valeo's third-generation lidar (laser detection and ranging system). Innovations in hardware and sensing software functions make its performance leading in the industry. Valeo SCALA3 delivers powerful sensing capabilities in any condition and meets the highest standards of quality and safety in the automotive industry.

‘black technology’ (heikeji 黑科技), a Chinese term used to describe cutting edge and futuristic technologies, so advanced that they defy comprehension.
