BRN Discussion Ongoing

[MegaportX]

Kudos to you FJ, for supporting the Company directly, at cost to yourself

That shows more than anything, that you have strong belief and conviction, in our financial success.

Good morning Sir Dingo, FJ is committed stockholder, hopefully rewarded for his support to Brainchip later in 2024.

Mmm old Sean looks like he lives in the pub
Red faced beer gut
No stress there to be seen
Needs a rocket

Get the feeling the entire board kick the day off with a few of these... every day & pocket the rocks, ontop of all the kick backs.

Have you mixed the last 2 digits around the wrong way

Hi @FJ-215.

The FrontGrade Gaisler event is our most positive event of this year.

I don’t see any point in turning it into a negative by dwelling on Sean’s looks, his weight, attire or otherwise.

What you choose to focus on is up to you!

No secret: Neuromorphic processing is highly efficient and saves a lot of power. But it is the new kid on the block, and conservative minds still need to grow confidence in it.

First quarter of 2024, BrainChip joined a consortium with Airbus Toulouse, Airbus Ottobrunn , Frontgrade Gaisler, and Neurobus for the European Space Agency - ESA ITT “Evaluation of Neuromorphic Computing Technologies for Very Low Power AI/ML Applications in Space.”

Airbus project lead Jérémy Lebreton and AI vision expert Roland Brochard state “This disruptive technology is on track to become part of the space industry roadmap, paving the way for new applications of AI at the edge in space, like earth observation, space exploration, satellite rendezvous, and landing on the moon.”

BrainChip is proud that Airbus selected Akida for both COTS chips and IP in their proposal. ESA awarded the Airbus “NEURAVIS” proposal, including Akida in the AKD1500 chip and on an FPGA together with Frontgrade Gaisler’s NOEL-V processor.

With Akida 2.0 technology and TENNs (patented Temporal Event based Neural Networks) BrainChip and our partners aim to drive neuromorphic processing in the future, orbiting the Earth or exploring space and the Moon.


Although a slow road as the technology is evaluated and progressed I’m celebrating where we are headed.

Hi SG,

This is a real confidence booster.

Akida 1500 needs an external processor, and we know that Akida is compatible with a lot of processors (ARM, Intel, AMD, SiFive, and probably Nvidia (?)).

Do we know what processor Airbus will be using with Akida 1500?

I'm a bit puzzled by the reference to an FPGA. I know we are doing the share issue to develop a cloud-based FPGA, but this sounds like a special one for Airbus. Maybe they want to play around with the logic configuration in hardware.

... and IP to boot. That suggests large number of chips. How many chips in Airbus A380?

Possibly the FPGA is for fine tuning the IP.

Otherwise, an FPGA could be used for one-off "manual assembly" applications, but since they are talking about 1500 and IP, that sounds like truckloads.

 

[rgupta]

What am I focusing on?

After 7 years as a share holder, a return on my investment.

Fingers crossed for a commercial agreement to celebrate by year's end.

You are right, but had you invested in a business which is making revenue.
Brainchip is a concept investment and it sometimes take more time than expected and sometimes fails as well.
So if you are looking to get return then brainchip cannot assure the investors at this time.
It may deliver you high profits if the concept is accepted by broader market, if the acceptance is not there then it may end up as a failed concept.

Gonna hazard a guess at AMD(?) @Diogenese

Cobham are a partner and use the solution in their Noel-V. FPGA as well.

Btw...presume Cobham work with and supply into Airbus?

They stopped making the A380s in 2021.

But any Airbus will have a good amount of chips in them for sure.

With the return of mass tourism post-COVID, the 500-passenger Airbus A380 is making an improbable comeback from extinction.

Hi rgupta,

BRN has been may things over the years.

A concept investment? Yes, when I first came across them, they were but there were products in place and more on the horizon. There were big, big names mentioned. Did you know about the Safran wiring connections solution? (Airbus) We even had customers and a contract here or there. And it went pear shaped (Hello SN Tech!)

And then we started again, ditched our old tech, sacked the sales staff and focused on Akida. It sucked!!! but alot of us held on and after what seemed like an eternity we had Akida IP, then an actual Akida chip. And then we had license agreements with Renesas and Megachips.

And then it went pear shaped again and Akida was too "narrow" in its use cases to be a commercial product.

And now we have Akida 2 and TENNs

If you have been around long enough you see a repeating pattern.

Failed concept, hmmm.....don't think so

Failed business ....... hope not!

You may be right. But again to materialise a concept it needs a lot of effort, re effort, again an effort. Keep on fighting is life and once you surrender you are dead, same is there with concept. So again concepts may not materialise all the time.
Hope for the best.

Or maybe not?

The above may be due to the tie in by using Xilinx but the GRLIB caught my eye and having a look at that appears interesting.

IP driven and presume that's where our IP will eventually sit.

You seem to be of the opinion that this is my first speck stock....

NO.........

Have supported many worthy ideas that have, well.....no succeeded.......

GBI was very painful.

Not so much from a financial point of view......Just sucked that a technology that was 20 years in the making could fall over months before federal approval was granted to their (sadly) defuncted technology. I memory serves they had something like 28 patents in place to help save women from cervical cancer.

What they invented was light years ahead of what is now the standard HPV test for cervical cancer. It probably still is much better than what is accepted as best practice. I haven't kept up with the research but a few years back, the best test for HPV could detect the 2 variants that were responsible for 70% of cervical cancers. GBI tech could detect all variants that were responsible for 99.5% of cervical cancers in a single test.

Sadly, they fell over after the government continually delayed the now preferred HPV testing used today.

Did Big Pharma delay the new tests to keep making more money.....at the expense of GBI share holders?

Hope not because a lot of women died due to that unnecessary delay.

IT's Not All About Money!!!

The SAD diet is responsible for the current decline in the health of Americans.

And it is bankrupting their health budget.

Northrop research to track ‘invisible’ hypersonic missiles

The iLAuNCH collaboration’s next project will see it attempt to detect hypersonic missiles from space.

www.spaceconnectonline.com.au

“We are bringing together Australian know-how to build an advanced space surveillance system for missile defence tailored for deployment on small satellites,” said iLAuNCH Trailblazer executive director, Darin Lovett.

The new project aims to fuse “cutting-edge infrared detection technology” and space-based artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) data processing techniques.

“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,” said iLAuNCH.

Hey FJ, what became known as "Akida" was always the end goal, it's in our name

The software solutions of "BrainChip" Studio and "BrainChip" Accelerator, were supposed to be a profitable bridge, to that goal.

They spent way too much money, building that bridge, which wasn't spanning the length and then decided to focus solely on "The Chip".

BrainChip, has encountered many roadblocks and detours, some of its own making and some outside our control..

We've been working at providing the market, something that it didn't need yet (going against the wisdom, of someone like Steve Jobs).

"We" can see the pure genius, in truly "Independent A.I." but the Market wasn't there yet.

Ken Scarince, said a few years ago now, that we were "disrupting a Market that hadn't been created yet".

Well that Market is now being created.
So I don't think we'll have to wait too much longer..
Software is now back on the table, in a big way too, due to everything changing so quickly, but "chips" will still be needed, in "Far Edge" applications, which will be practically everywhere and in everything.

Unless we're all wrong of course ..
