Holy crap, that’s a few more then I remember reading!

At the 2019 AGM Peter van der Made gave a presentation during which he said that he could process all the necessary sensors for a vehicle with 9 x AKD1000 chips including redundancy and could do all the compute with just 100 x AKD1000 chips.

This led to a great deal of excitement and the then CEO after the AGM made the comment in a shareholder presentation that while it was true Brainchip could do all the compute in a car with 100 x AKD1000 this was not their focus, that Peter allowed his enthusiasm for the technology to lead him sometimes and Brainchip’s focus was at the Edge.

After much reading about how many chips are needed the prediction most commonly used is that by 2030 the average EV will have approximately 3,000 conventional chips.

Suffice to say that when deployed at scale a significant number of AKIDA based technology chips would be required across an EV but it would be less than 3,000. Remembering that since Peter van der Made’s presentation in 2019 the AKIDA 2.0 P capable of 131 TOPS has been released.

Oddly enough my question was not really answered, so the answer isnt cut and dry unfortunately, but sounds like if we are to be in the new cars its somehow along side nvidia, or through nvidia.

Good morning all,

With regards our involvement so to speak with ANT61 I must correct myself, I was of the understanding that our AKD 1000 chip
was onboard the rocket that entered orbit in early January, but I stand corrected.

Mikhail Asavkin has advised me that our brilliant 1st Gen Chip (the so-called failure) will be onboard Transporter-10 currently scheduled
for liftoff with SpaceX in March 2024, he will also be updating followers of the progress as things unfold.

Transporter-10 Mission (Falcon 9) - RocketLaunch.Live

10th dedicated rideshare mission to Sun Synchronous Orbit (SSO), 53 payloads on board. The launch date was Monday, March 4, 2024 at 10:05 PM (UTC).

Waiting for the Qtrly and H2 2023 report from some more ammo of which I’m sure there will be plenty based on BRNs habit over promising & under delivering..

At CES in BRN guest podcasts, it was quite clear that Rob and Nandan were speaking future tense and not present tense when answering questions about any current Akida applications..

Sean said BRN is an IP and royalty company.. No new IPs signed in years, and clearly as above, there are no royalties coming from 2023 the reporting period. When that becomes evident yet again through proof “in the financials”, there will be plenty of ammo for the “manipulators” lol..

New IP signings between now and the AGM are most likely the only bridging peace treaty between disgruntled shareholders and management. There’s every chance maximum pain has not been reached unfortunately, but everyone has their limits..

Wonder what the superglued on faithful’s limit is? Will you all back management through this period for an orderly transition to commercialisation, or will you start talking share price, which many of you say to leave alone in this thread? Time will tell. History suggests you will all start breaking your own rules and raise the SP. Didn’t see anyone telling Dingo to piss off to the Chet thread with all his SP related comments..

Such a bunch of tools in here to be blatantly fair to an orderly balanced conversation.

Now what was it the legends of HC want Brainchip Directors and management to do again while Brainchip is loaded down with NDAs and commercial in confidence agreements that cannot be disclosed to the market???

Major Aust Ag shareholder convicted of insider trading in US court 25 Jan 2024 - The biggest shareholder in Australian Agricultural Co, 86-year-old Joe Lewis, who holds a 52% stake in Aust Ag through his company, Tavistock Group, has been convicted of insider trading by a US court. Lewis, who also revealed the purchase of another 6 million shares in the beef producer midway through 2023, pleaded guilty in a New York federal court to securities fraud related to insider trading.” He must have taken advice from HC legal experts

Transforming Automotive: A $1.6 Trillion Opportunity by 2034!

The automotive landscape is on the brink of a revolutionary change! A recent report by IDTechEx highlights a thrilling future for the industry, projecting a market opportunity that skyrockets to an estimated $1.6 trillion by 2034. This significant leap forward is driven by the advent of autonomous driving, electric vehicles, connectivity, and more, marking electrification and automation as the new norm. With a predicted compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8% from 2023 to 2033, the electric vehicle market is booming, fueled by advancements in motors, batteries, and power electronics. Moreover, the surging demand for sophisticated sensors in vehicles highlights their crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of both autonomous and electric vehicles, promising a growth of 13.7% in the ADAS and autonomous vehicle sensors market.

Connected vehicles are reshaping our driving experiences, with the trend only set to grow. New revenue models like feature-as-a-service (FaaS) highlight how technology is not just enhancing vehicles but transforming our interactions with them, with the annual revenue from connected and software-defined vehicles expected to exceed $700 billion. Despite being in its early stages, autonomous driving is making significant strides, with the pursuit of mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) expected to see global expansion, contributing massively to the industry's growth.

At onsemi, we're excited about these developments! We see great potential in contributing to this transformative era with our intelligent power and sensing technologies. Our focus on innovation aligns perfectly with these trends, positioning us to be at the forefront of this automotive revolution.

Is there any chance that some of the Renesas AKIDA chips will end up in a Mercedes?
I asked IR what is happenning with the Renesas chips in December'23. IR handballed it and replied that my email had been forwarded to the new CTO for consideration.
Still waiting for a reply. Must be a 'sensitive' topic ATM.

Quarterly results are out

 

[Jimmy17]

Brilliant quarterly update. $780k is a decent improvement in revenue

 

[Xhosa12345]

Good cash in 780k but not getting excited cos receivables at 30 jun were 750k, and only 27k collected september, so most could be collecting the old stuff. so will wait until the yearly report to see how much new revenue in this 6 months. Back of envelope says 30k new revenue collected only.
