I emailed IR asking about the Renesas chip just before the break.So what's happening with Renesas?
Renesas is taping out a chip using the spiking neural network (SNN) technology developed by Brainchip.

With hols still waiting for a reply.
Should get one within a week. They probably can't comment in any case.
Some designs have zone control processors, so the vehicle may have 5 or 6 processors, and possibly each requires liquid cooling, so having a single cooling system would be more efficient. In addition, dumping a big lot of heat can be more thermodynamically efficient than dumping half-a-dozen smaller lots of waste heat because there could be a greater temperature differential between the waste heat and ambient temperature.Unfortunately this single boast by Panasonic, says they haven't seen the Light, Bravo..
"Thermal Management: Integrates a liquid cooling design that can dissipate up to 1000W of heat"
Their "NEURON" is poorly named, as it's definitely not "biological brain" inspired.
The Neuron™ HPC can aggregate multiple computing zones to reduce the cost, weight and integration complexity of the vehicle by removing redundant components. Panasonic Automotive's design supports effortless up-integration with high-performance and heavy data input processing capability.
Haven't really looked at Dojo, but we know that letting Akida do the heavy lifting (CNN) can greatly reduce generation of waste heat.
It is also sound practice to over-engineer the cooling system, especially in view of climate change. You don't engineer cooling systems for average temperatures.

This was just posted by a US newspaper summarising the CES. I will search online but other more competent may be quicker. Just wondering how the facial recognition works?
SMART LOCKS GO BIOMETRIC
It’s 2024, of course your face can unlock your phone. And your front door is next.
Lockly, a tech company that specializes in smart locks, is showcasing a new lock with facial recognition technology that allows consumers to open doors without any keys. The new smart lock, dubbed “Visage,” is set to hit the market this summer. In addition to facial recognition, this lock will feature a biometric fingerprint sensor and secure digital keypad for alternative ways of entry — similar to past Lockly products. Visage is also compatible with Apple HomeKey and Apple Home.

AI Assistants, In-Car Gaming And Tons Of Range: Coming To Your Next Mercedes-Benz
Mercedes has some bold, experimental ideas for how your driving experience could feel in the next few years. Will customers bite?

The fight for automotive supremacy in the future won't come down to horsepower or mechanical specs. It will probably come down to software; at least, that's what the car companies tell us. That idea may seem radical to anyone driving a car from the last decade who's just happy that their Apple CarPlay or Android Auto setup works so well, but all of the automakers have much bigger, grander plans for what we experience inside their cars than we currently do.
Case in point: Mercedes-Benz's big announcements at CES 2024 aren't about performance or even electric range this time, but the future software-driven features coming to its cars very soon.

The giant Las Vegas tech show served as a preview for a bevy of Mercedes technologies coming to both its EVs and internal combustion-powered cars starting next year, including its smartest voice-controlled virtual assistant ever thanks to AI; more expansions into in-car gaming; a taste of its new all-encompassing suite, MB.OS; the North American debut of its future electric sedan and Tesla Model 3 competitor; and a unique system co-developed with musician will.i.am that "allows music to react to how the car is being driven," in Mercedes' words. (More on that in its own story right here.) Let's dive in.

In-car software and AI is the big story at CES this yearAfter years of EV and concept car debuts, automakers like Mercedes, Volkswagen and BMW are focused on upping their software game at the tech mega-show in 2024. All car companies have huge plans for revenue through software features, including via subscriptions.
MB.OS' Party Trick Is Its Virtual Assistant
If you've been fortunate enough to experience Mercedes' MBUX software system across all three parts of the Hyperscreen on certain EQ electric cars, you know how powerful and graphically impressive it is. (At least, that's my take.) Equally impressive are the voice controls, where you can say "Hey, Mercedes" and get a swift response to most things you need without having to fish through the Hyperscreen's menus when you're on the road.
To that, Mercedes says: "You ain't seen nothing yet." The MB.OS system coming soon to the company's all-new MMA platform is a purpose-built chip-to-cloud operating system that brings a number of diverse functions under one roof: in-car content, charging, maps, car setting controls and automated driving.
A big part of that will be the MBUX Virtual Assistant, which Mercedes calls " the most human-like interface with a Mercedes-Benz yet." Powered by ChatGPT—something Volkswagen announced today at CES as well—Mercedes' Chief Technology Officer Markus Schäfer said the system can do more than just follow your voice commands. It can have a "dialogue" with users, and even pick up on the moods they're in to respond with "empathy."
The AI has four different personality traits—Natural, Predictive, Personal and Empathetic—that can be adjusted to your personal tastes or situation behind the wheel. The AI Projects as a glowing three-pointed star logo with various color changes and animations to illustrate its state of being. It could glow a certain way when providing a warning, for example, and a different way when it's listening to you.
"In some cases, hopefully, the assistant predicts already what you want, depending on your moods, the daytime, the location you are in and the circumstances you are in," Schäfer said. But after an easy conversation, Schäfer said the assistant "can address whatever you want from your car, whether you want entertainment, you want information and so on."
The assistant has four different "emotions" and can respond to your requests based on your own mood at the time. "You can have a constant interaction with your car," Schäfer told InsideEVs at a press roundtable earlier today.
In other words, this system should do a lot more than just tell you where the nearest charging station is when you say "Hey, Mercedes." It may also commiserate with you about how annoyed you are to be stuck in traffic.
Surround Navigation Turns Your Driving Experience Into A Video Game
These days, it's not uncommon for high-tech EVs to have displays with visualizations of the cars and objects in the surrounding area; Tesla's center screen is arguably the best example of this. But Mercedes is taking this to a different level.
Using the Unity game engine, the next-gen cars will offer MBUX Surround Navigation: a 3D visualization that allows you to "see what the car sees," as Mercedes puts it. Though your eyes are good at what they do, this system gives more of a bird's-eye view of other cars, trucks, cyclists or even pedestrians—superimposing potential hazards onto the route guidance to help you navigate a tough urban environment beyond just what you yourself can see.
"So for example, navigating through downtown traffic, finding a parking spot, knowing where you're going to make your turn"—all are projected via Surround Navigation, Mercedes' Chief Software Officer Magnus Östberg said during the press conference. The 3D game engine projects "all the sensor data that we're taking from the cameras, the radar, the LIDAR, that really gives the driver situational awareness. It's not only beautiful graphics but also a safe experience," he said.
Though we weren't offered the chance to experience this for ourselves at CES, it does seem like an impressive evolution of the navigation experience—and a good visualization of much of the data the car normally keeps to itself.
More In-Car Gaming Soon
Mercedes also knows you need something to do while you're charging, and at least one answer to that is the video games I had when I was a kid. Bubble Bobble is back, kids. Get excited.
Mercedes announced a wide array of partnerships bringing new music, movies, video games and other content to those giant screens soon. Those include Audible and Amazon Music for podcasts and audiobooks, as well as Antstream Arcade for retro cloud-based gaming. It's not far off what you can already do with your smartphone, but the native access to these services should provide a nice experience on some much bigger, more high-res screens when you have downtime in the car.
The Next CLA Makes Its North American Debut
Though some early iterations of these features are available on the new 2024 Mercedes E-Class, which runs a "precursor" to MB.OS, the real show starts when the car above hits the road next year. That's the Concept CLA Class, which first debuted at IAA Munich in 2023 and is making its first-ever appearance in North America for CES.
The final production version of the next CLA isn't expected to veer too far from the concept here, and when it does, it will not only be a Model 3 fighter—something badly needed in an SUV-focused world—but it will debut MB.OS for the first time. That car will also be the first of at least four EVs on the new MMA platform, which, together with MB.OS, represents a much more cohesive transformation of Mercedes than we've seen before. By putting all these technologies together with one software platform, the automaker says it can offer a level of features and personalization it's never been able to before.
And the next CLA is expected to be a mighty EV, not just a computer on wheels. With an 800-volt architecture, an estimated 466 miles of range on Europe's WLTP cycle and the ability to add an estimated 248 miles of range in 15 minutes, this should be a winner if it even come close to those claims. Furthermore, with an estimated 5.2 miles per kilowatt-hour, it should be one of the most efficient EVs on the road.
We'll see this and more from Mercedes as CES goes on this week.

Agree, some big names are associating with us for good reason. We (BRN) is the real deal and we are the future.Gidday FL
First off, I have a sense of humour, accept it for what it is.
Our staff on the other hand will be ramping our company's technology, products and potential possibilities between 9-12 Jan, and in fact
throughout the year.
1. Obviously any poster can post up or down comments, I don't control the narrative, but like many on this site we offer opinions, I personally
have no objection to negative comments IF they are based on fact, not emotionally charged looking for an argument.
2. Lets just deal with the facts as CES plays out, this event isn't going to seal multi-million dollar deals in this environment, that could take a
number of years, sorry to lower your expectations, but in answering your question, excuses are only issued when a commitment hasn't been
fulfilled generally speaking, has the company "promised" something that I'm not aware of ?
3. Haven't you learnt anything over the years that you've held this stock ? There is currently NO guarantee that any revenue or IP Licenses will
be delivered in 2024, as you already know I personally chose January 2025 to review my own holding, I would like to see IP Licenses and revenue
start to commence during the next 4 quarters, as product cycles for some EAP's must be awfully close to maturing.
4. Is there a reason why major funds are increasing their holding in Brainchip stock ?
Brainchip isn't going away anytime soon, we have zero debt, solid funding, proven technology and NO CUSTOMERS according to you, while
I will concede I receive a few messages from posters privately from this forum who are frustrated with the lack of product, IP License deals and revenue, I do agree that the time frame has been a lot longer than many of us had initially envisaged, but through being educated by Antonio
and others within the industry we have hopefully learnt that 2/4 years appears to be "normal" from start to finish.
Finally, I'm comfortable holding at present, and see absolutely no change in my view...regards Tech

Did you buy a facial recognition version. The reason I ask is we have all seen the image detection at edge Akida can do with no connectivity. So was wondering if this was not tethered to a data device if it could be Akida inside. If on the other hand you need to connect via wifi and have your home computer or phone establish the facial metrics and the door needs to check back each time then it’s just old tech.
