Real-Time AI At The Edge May Require A New Network Solution
Real-Time AI At The Edge May Require A New Network Solution Description: AI has the power to change every electronic platform, but what works in the data center may not work in an industrial edge platform like a security camera, robotic arm, or even a vehicle. There is no one-size-fits-all for...brainchip.com
"Additionally, there are no other off-the-shelf solutions that can provide comparable low-power, high-accuracy, and real-time AI processing".

Pretty much the only posts on the Crapper worth reading are those by Fact Finder and rayz. I much appreciate their efforts.Had a sneaky look back on HC. still a cesspit!... But, regardless, it is more so challenging everyday to defend the position here that we are not at any risk of being overtaken. Currently, the situation seems as likely as having a contract or actual bloody revenue announce, where is the management?IMO

Northrop Grumman Australia and Spiral Blue team up for missile defence
6 August 2024A new iLAuNCH Trailblazer project aims to strengthen defence research in Australia by maturing a full stack missile detection capability.
Northrop Grumman Australia and Spiral Blue are working together on the project.
"We are bringing together Australian knowhow to build an advanced space surveillance system for missile defence tailored for deployment on small satellites,” said iLAuNCH Trailblazer Executive Director, Darin Lovett.
This mission aspires to cultivate a new sovereign capability for hypersonic missile detection through the fusion of cutting-edge infrared detection technology and industry-leading space-based artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) data processing techniques.
“Through mission engineering, we plan to rapidly progress promising future operational concepts up the TRL ladder. We will catalyse the expertise in hypersonic vehicle signatures, space-based detection technologies, and the use of AI/ML techniques for threat identification from our different project partners to inform the development of a discriminating capability to the end user,” said Northrop Grumman Australia’s Technology Outreach Manager, Dr Dushy Tissa.
Anticipated outcomes encompass hypersonic vehicle radiance and trajectory modelling, comprehensive design, and rigorous analysis of an infrared electro-optical system, by leveraging state-of-the-art infrared detectors and space edge AI/ML hardware and algorithms for on-board event detection.

Tier 1: Pure-Play Neuromorphic Computing Stocks
The pure-play neuromorphic computing stocks represent the cutting edge of this nascent industry. These companies stake their entire business model on the potential of these brain-inspired chips. While this focus creates higher risk, it also offers the most direct exposure for investors bullish on neuromorphic computing. With only one public company currently in this tier, it underscores just how early we are in the neuromorphic computing market.BrainChip Holdings (ASX: BRN)
BrainChip Holdings (ASX: BRN) is a first-mover in commercial neuromorphic computing, with a focus on energy-efficient edge AI.Australia-based BrainChip is a pioneer in commercializing neuromorphic computing, focusing on edge AI solutions. The company has developed an Edge AI platform that combines innovative silicon IP, software, and machine learning. This platform includes the Akida neuromorphic processor. Akida is designed to process information in a way that mimics the human brain from a fundamental hardware level. This “imitation” goes beyond the deep neural networks used in today’s AI models.
Brainship enjoys first-mover advantage in commercial neuromorphic computing. The company’s technology has several unique features, including microwatt power consumption and on-chip learning, while being able to support standard machine learning workflows. In fact, it offers a claimed 5-10x improvement in performance-per-watt over traditional AI accelerators. This would make the Akida chip ideal for battery-powered devices, edge computing, and in-sensor intelligence.
The company is pursuing a flexible business model centered on high-margin IP licensing. This strategy involves upfront license fees and ongoing royalties, which could provide steady revenue as adoption grows. BrainChip’s intellectual property portfolio includes 17 granted patents and 30 pending patents. The company’s team consists of 80% engineers, with 15% holding PhDs from leading AI research programs. BrainChip is also building partnerships with system integrators, including MegaChips, Prophesee, and SiFive.”

Regarding this Intel 18A platform if I am reading this correctly it will be the customer whom chooses their particular design and if it is to include BRN Akida , is that correct?.

Thanks for this. We've seen a couple of articles along this line, which allow me to maintain my illusion about software as a product.
As you may or may not know, I've been posting about the possibility of our EAPs using Akida simulation software, particularly after the emergence of Akida 2 + TeNNs more than 30 months ago, with Valeo and MB using software for signal processing. This sentence from the article again adds more grist to that rumor mill:
"The company has developed an Edge AI platform that combines innovative silicon IP, software, and machine learning."
To repeat myself, no potential user would commit to Akida 2 in silicon while the tech was in a state of flux. The use of software AI is not so problematic in ICEs as it is in EVs, but from what we've heard about TeNNs, the power and latency could be tolerated in EVs using TeNNs in software. Of course, the software would sensibly include the full Akida 2 simulation including TeNNs, or TeNNs could be used on its own. Software can be readily updated as new developments are implemented, whereas silicon is set in stone.
It's been several months since Anil announced the proposed tapeout of Akida 2, which suggests that the development had reached a satisfactory plateau of stability sufficient for the company to commit to silicon. The tapeout was subsequently "delegated" to a mysterious "other" - the rest is silence.
The SPP talks about developing a cloud-based FPGA demonstration setup, again, not a tapeout. This would be a cheaper way to obtain customer feedback than taping out and making a batch of "engineering sample" chips.
Presumably the mysterious "other" would want to be in on the results of the cloud feedback before going to silicon.
Does this mean that we need to wait for the cloud FPGA venture to provide meaningful results before the tapeout can be implemented? - sigh!
Does it follow that BRN will become a software provider, at least in the short term?

@Diogenese what do you mean by "The tapeout was subsequently "delegated" to a mysterious "other" - " ?

Hi @Diogenese,
One question I would have for Sean, is, how do we provide yield numbers for Akida 2 without proving it out in silicon? Yes, we have AKD 1000/1500 from two different foundries but no commercial runs to speak of.
If I remember the ARM history correctly, they were on their 4th or 5th run of commercial chips before going down the IP route that BRN is trying to copy.

Who knows, maybe a mix of the two.
