Hi @Fact Finder , didn't LDN (I think) say once that BRN was heavily involved with a major communication company. Could this be it I wonder?
I think it was Sean who said we are working with a communication company.

Hi FMF
Absolutely.

Some of the trolls criticise putting up the whole document but experience teaches that sometimes it ain’t there when you go back.

They tend also to be the ones who only believe Brainchip makes mistakes but those who read widely know mistakes are equally shared across the entire world.

You only have to count up the number of closest confidants of Vladimir Putin who have gone missing or suddenly became terminally ill through falling out of windows to know mistakes occur even when the punishment greatly exceeds the crime so to speak.

Towards 6G Zero-Energy Internet of Things: Standards, Trends, and Recent Results​

6G presents new opportunities to enrich the cellular ecosystem by introducing battery-less Zero-energy Internet of Things (ZE-IoT) devices, thus unleashing an era of massive, sustainable, and smart connectivity. This explains the increased interest in ZE-IoT in academia and industry. The road to a 6G future empowered by ZE-IoT entails cohesive efforts in the realm of standardization, academic research, and industrial trials, which are synergistic with the anticipated market demand and the dominant technology direction. In this article, we provide a holistic view of a 6G ZE-IoT future informed by the ongoing standardization activities in the 3 rd generation partnership project (3GPP) for ZE-IoT, the role of the emerging technology trends such as digital twins and artificial intelligence, and the technical challenges in integrating ZE-IoT into the cellular ecosystem. Finally, we present some recent research results to address some of the discussed challenges



They almost got it back in the bag and but for the above remaining on Google Scholar would have succeeded:

Apparently Ericsson is not very big but you keep adding all these multi billion dollar minnows together and eventually the market might respond:


Ericsson (ERIC) - Market capitalization

Companies Market Cap
https://companiesmarketcap.com › ericsson › marketcap

As of February 2024 Ericsson has a market cap of $18.24 Billion. This makes Ericsson the world's 981th most valuable company according to our data.

Other than the Ericsson link, the other two links no longer work 🤔..

Are we doing more harm than good, by exposing some of these types of fluff ups?

Maybe the screen shots should be deleted here too?

It feels like I can’t even mention Brainchip anymore to anyone lol
But every day gone is a day closer to that announcement or big reveal.
The odd must be in our favour now surely.

My guess is that it will surprise everyone
And only the ones with tickets can get a seat

Hi Rskiff
I cannot remember that but I believe he had Ericsson as one of the group of companies he used to example as the types of companies they could be working with back then.

Sean Hehir CEO did say they had been approached by a large communication company who wanted to use AKIDA technology for a purpose they had not envisaged. When you read up on 6G as envisaged by Ericsson and its use of Ai/ML and Cognitive Communications it does point in their direction as they are pushing the science in that regard.

Hi All
I probably do not need to remind you but just in case someone has missed this subtle change in messaging from Nandan over the last couple of months he has been mentioning quite often AKIDA being powered by ENERGY HARVESTING. Now having reminded those who needed same the following from Ericsson becomes very interesting particularly if you also through in the final comment by the Chief Revenue Officer for Edge Impulse during his Brainchip CES 2024 Podcast with Nandan:

"Imagine thousands of devices – each could be smaller than a grain of rice – spread across a farmer’s field, a factory floor or in our clothes, transmitting lifesaving or business-altering data.
The applications could span across industries. Picture that you are trying to run a farm stretching across thousands of acres. How do you check the health of your crops or cattle? With zero-energy devices, data like this could be easily accessible, at the click of a button on your mobile or tablet.
Imagine fruits and vegetables that tell you when they require care or are perfectly ripe for harvest, or even if there's a problem with the soil.
In the years to come, the number of devices requiring connectivity will move from billions to trillions. At this size and scale, low-cost and low-powered connected sensors will be non-negotiable.
To enable this, industries need time, resources and research to really understand what is or could be possible. With the ability to use a vast amount of data from a variety of sensors, the only limit to what can be achieved is our imagination.

In the years to come, the number of devices requiring connectivity will move from billions to trillions.


What are zero-energy devices?
Zero-energy devices do not require any batteries or manual charging. To generate power, these devices can harvest energy from the world around them. Future devices could be extremely small such as the size of a grain of rice and come in the form of sensors (which reports on data from readings and measurements), trackers (which report on the location of an object or living thing) or actuators (which prompt other machines to operate).

Why are they valuable?

The adoption of zero-energy devices could lead to a massive reduction in both the cost and power needed to run and maintain devices, making them more scalable. Gathering data from these devices also has the potential to drive higher productivity, pollution reduction and enriched lifestyles, without requiring any additional energy. An additional bonus is that battery-less devices are better for the environment and can be managed with easy and simple processes, from manufacturing to disposal.
Zero-energy devices can help merge the physical and digital worlds more closely, where each reality learns, adapts and responds to each other. Digital twins are key to this development, and zero-energy devices can provide the sensor data necessary to build these digital representations of the real world. As the number of zero energy devices increases, new insights and detail will emerge.

How will zero-energy devices be brought to life?

Creators of these devices will need to focus on how to reap the most amount of energy to generate the maximum amount of power in a cost-effective way. The network will then need to be capable of handling millions of devices sustainably, with limitless connectivity, cognitive capabilities and the ability to scale, adapt and work in different conditions in real time.
This sounds like quite a daunting task. However, it’s not impossible – Ericsson is working with others to realize the full benefits of what could be achieved."

https://pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/harvesting-big-energy-from-small-movement

A new material designed to harvest up to 400 times more energy from movement than currently possible has potential applications in biomedicine and geospatial monitoring

“This capability is also very powerful in the sensing area, particularly, if there is a need to measure very small vibrations from the environment, like monitoring minor seismic activity or changes in water flow, or to power sensors in remote locations where you don’t get a lot of sun.”

Seeing as my phone won't copy text without having a Spas Attack, which nearly caused it to sail through the window out into the street, you will all have to scroll down to the heading "influential space programs".
Now after all the tantrums and dummy spits I just need someone to say old news mate but good try. 😆

“Influential space programs​

Microchip is involved in the High-Performance Spaceflight Computing (HPSC) processor project of the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Cañada Flintridge, Calif. Microchip is developing a space processor that will provide at least 100 times the computational capacity of current spaceflight computers.
Microchip will build the HPSC processor over three years, with the goal of employing the processor on future lunar and planetary exploration missions. Microchip's processor architecture will improve the overall computing efficiency for these missions by enabling computing power to be scalable, based on mission needs. The work is under a $50 million contract, with Microchip contributing significant research and development costs to complete the project.
"We are making a joint investment with NASA on a new trusted and transformative compute platform that will deliver comprehensive Ethernet networking, advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning processing, and connectivity support while offering unprecedented performance gain, fault-tolerance, and security architecture at low power consumption," says Babak Samimi, corporate vice president for Microchip's Communications business unit.
"We will foster an industrywide ecosystem of single-board computer partners anchored on the HPSC processor and Microchip's complementary space-qualified

total system solutions to benefit a new generation of mission-critical edge compute designs optimized for size, weight, and power," he says.
Current space-qualified computing technology is designed to address the most computationally intensive part of a mission, which leads to overdesigning and inefficient use of computing power. Microchip's new processor will enable the device's processing power to ebb and flow depending on current operational requirements. Certain processing functions can also be turned off when not in use to reduce power consumption.
"Our current spaceflight computers were developed almost 30 years ago," says Wesley Powell, NASA's principal technologist for advanced avionics. "While they have served past missions well, future NASA missions demand significantly increased onboard computing capabilities and reliability. The new computing processor will provide the advances required in performance, fault tolerance, and flexibility to meet these future mission needs."
The U.S. Space Force has kicked-off a program to design next-generation radiation-hardened non-volatile memory chips for future military applications in space in the Advanced Next Generation Strategic Radiation hardened Memory (ANGSTRM) project. The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory's Space Vehicles Directorate at Kirtland Air Force Base, N.M., issued an ANGSTRM solicitation on behalf of the Space Force last January to develop a strategic rad-hard non-volatile memory device with near-commercial state-of-the-art performance by using advanced packaging and radiation-hardening techniques with state-of-the-art commercial technology.”
