BRN Discussion Ongoing

Was checking in on Unigen to see if any extra info and noticed we are now listed, amongst other Vendors as an IHV.

Some others are ISV.

Wasn't sure of acronym but apparently is Independent Hardware Vendor vs Independent Software Vendor.

Obviously confirms we must be supplying the Akida 1.0 chips just like with VVDN.

Mercedes-Benz plans massive investment in China​

Visitors look at a Mercedes-Benz at the 2024 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition in April. CHINA DAILY
Mercedes-Benz Group announced a massive investment plan on Wednesday to enrich its portfolio of locally made vehicles in China, its largest market in the world.
Together with its Chinese partners, it is planning to spend over 14 billion yuan ($1.97 billion) to introduce a number of vehicles based on new architectures.

Statistics show that Mercedes-Benz and its local partners invested over 100 billion yuan in China from 2014 to 2023.
The new move comes as local Chinese NEV startups threaten to steal the limelight and allure away customers from global premium marques including Mercedes.
The German carmaker said it will start a new chapter in China from 2025, led by the local production of the all-new long-wheelbase electric CLA and an all-new long-wheelbase derivative of the GLE SUV, as well as an all-new luxury electric van model based on the VAN.EA architecture.
The long-wheelbase electric CLA, tailored for Chinese car buyers, will be built based on the Mercedes Modular Architecture, whose new technologies were teased in the Concept CLA Class last year.
The Mercedes-Benz Operating System, which is developed in-house, will debut alongside the premiere of all-new models based on the MMA platform in 2025.
Among other things, it features a new virtual assistant that uses generative AI and advanced 3D graphics, and the first HD-mapless point-to-point urban intelligent driving system among premium brands.

The new long-wheelbase GLE SUV is for the first time developed by the local R&D team, including China-exclusive rear seat comfort and leading intelligent technology, said the German carmaker.
Analysts said chances are fat for traditional premium carmakers to win customers back gradually as long as they can offer smart cutting-edge functions seen in Chinese brands, based on those global brands' reputation earned by their strict and proven standards in terms of manufacturing and quality control.

I find this collaboration between Mercedes and Volcano Engine (ByteDance) very interesting.

It says here Mercedes will integrate Volcano Engine’s in-car audio and video app into its intelligent cockpit system and by enhancing the smart cabin system’s network information retrieval capabilities and by "atomizing the cabin, more efficiently invoking various services to further enhance the response speed and execution capability of the voice system".

Obviously the integration of all of these elements; in-car audio, video, Gen AI, NLP, etc will increase the processing power required to operate. IMO this only builds the case for neuromorphic computing due to benefits in terms of increased efficiency and low power consumption..

On August 13th, it was reported that Volcano Engine, the cloud service platform under ByteDance, announced that Mercedes-Benz (China) Investment Co., Ltd. and Beijing Volcano Engine Technology Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation memorandum to collaborate and explore in the fields of large models, generative artificial intelligence, and big data.
It was introduced that Mercedes-Benz has previously collaborated with Volcano Engine in the application and development tools for in-car use. In 2023, Mercedes-Benz will integrate Volcano Engine’s in-car audio and video app, Volcano Car Entertainment, into its intelligent cockpit system, launching it first in the all-new long wheelbase E-Class. This application aggregates audio and video content from popular platforms such as Douyin, Xigua Video, and Toutiao.
The official statement indicates that Mercedes-Benz and Volcano Engine will continue to expand their collaboration in the future. The collaboration includes the following:
Enhancing the smart cabin system’s network information retrieval capabilities: Based on a vast knowledge base and leveraging the intent understanding and logical reasoning capabilities of large models, make future virtual assistants “smarter and more knowledgeable.”
Improving the reaction speed of the smart cabin system: By atomizing the cabin, more efficiently invoking various services to further enhance the response speed and execution capability of the voice system.
Expanding intelligent application scenarios to bring personalized smart cabin experiences: Extending more usage scenarios in areas such as voice, navigation, entertainment, and information to meet diverse customer needs while providing a smarter, more convenient, and more personalized smart cabin experience.
Increasing the R&D speed of the smart cabin: Against the backdrop of the Mercedes-Benz China R&D team continuously enhancing “China Speed,” both parties will continue to advance cooperation in developing plugins and toolchains.

Facts:
Tata Exsli has committed to using AKIDA for Health and Industrial.
Blue Ridge (now Parsons Corporation) has committed for Defense.
ANT61 for Space
Sean's predecessor Mr. Louis DINARDO currently holds circa 5 million shares. He would have a good idea of where BRN is headed..
Mr. Adam OSSEIRAN former BRN Director currently holds circa 7 million shares vis a family trust.
Gen2 plus TENNs is unique and a game breaker.
At the AGM both Sean and Tony (chairman) confirmed engagements were closing in on decisions.
Tata & P.C. are committed to use Akida!!!

Okay, very good, but did they sign any contract to that effect?

If not, they can walk away anytime they want, they don't even have to tell anyone.

The other stuff you said are spot on and I agree.

Some of us here are sometimes a bit negative, that doesn't mean in my case that I am short on the shock or this dude bacon, okay.

It's okay to be honest and say what you mean, IMO.

Rather that than a backslapper ass licker with no backbone.

Airing frustrations are seen very often on the H.C. and I have around 25 persons over there on ignore because some of them are extremely negative to the point of stupidity, no need to waste time reading it.

Yes I have order 200 units, just to help boost our sales this quarter. They are sitting in my office as bookends.

I suggest you do the same.

Your initiative is definitely very commendable.

However, you didn't answer my question.

In the onsemi podcast last year she mentioned they were working with brainchip on smart air bags.

Onsemi and Emotion3d partnered back in 2022 for driver monitoring. https://emotion3d.ai/emotion3d-and-...-occupant-monitoring-system-reference-design/

Emotion3d and brainchip partnered together in 2023 for driver monitoring.

Emotion3d just posted this regarding driver monitoring including seatbelt and airbag in cabin analysis. https://emotion3d.ai/the-critical-role-of-in-cabin-monitoring-systems-in-passive-safety/

The article mentions theyve come up with a smart RCS system in partnership with AVL (12000 employees) and Veoneer (2700 employees). No mentioned of brainchip, but hopefully we are somehow involved.

What I'm interested in is whether anyone has ordered an Akida AI Box?

If so, have you already received and tested the Akida AI Box or maybe even created the first application?
I donot think edge boxes are available before 2024 end or early 2025.
If anyone get an edge box before that please share.

The funny thing is, how the German government makes a big show screaming out loud how they want to increase sanctions against China 😂😂


No one:…

My opinion won’t make a difference to anything
The way I see it is either you invest and enjoy the journey or you don’t.

The way I see it is it’s going to be good if they do well and I hope they do

Every body is saying it’s taking longer than they thought
It’s not just BRN
It’s industry wide

Give it another 4 years at least
