The intelligent vehicle functionalities of the future call for pioneering new algorithms and hardware.
That’s why Mercedes-Benz is researching artificial neural networks that could radically increase the speed and energy efficiency of complex AI computations.
This could revolutionise future driving assistance and safety systems by overcoming the limits of today’s computing hardware.
For instance, conventional computing requires up to 3000 watts for advanced automated driving functions.
In future, neuromorphic computing could do this with just 300 watts, by mimicking the human brain with so-called “event-based processing“.

Good to see Mercedes talking about this again. Hopefully no one bothers them on linkedin.

Companies need us !!! If they want to stay relevant, keep in front of the curve then we should definitely be on their radar......

There’s no “so called” about it Mr Merc!
Our little nipper does just that, reeeeealy well. Go get em tiger

US tech stocks steady as Nvidia shares pick up after DeepSeek shock - live updates
Shares for leading US chip firm Nvidia dropped by almost 17% on Monday after the emergence of DeepSeek stunned Silicon Valley.

NVIDIA is already having a deep red day.
I don't think it will be red for Brainchip - quite the opposite

Maybe so, but who is going to be the savior in the end? BrainChip and whoever uses our technology there sp price will only rise, proof is in the pudding after today.

Off topic, but maybe from general interest:
"Infineon and the BSI pave the way for a quantum-resilient future: World's first Common Criteria Certification for post-quantum cryptography algorithm on a security controller
...
The world's first certification is a milestone on the way to a quantum-safe future in our daily lives."

This guy is just a kid, but explains it's significance pretty well..
Though my mind still wandered a bit listening to him..

Holding onto what I've got
We all know China has in the past stretched the truth about its tech so unsure about DeepSeek, how private is it too?!
Assuming some of the major players in AI that took a hit today know of Brainchip and are under NDAs, they may want to start mentioning Akida re leveraging themselves back, the advantage this time they'll have private, low power AI at the edge. IMO.

Just an afterthought…
Academic research utilising Akida shouldn’t generally be underestimated or dismissed as mere playtime in an ivory tower.
Some of these researchers have excellent connections to big players in the industry and/or to government agencies and sometimes even prior work experience in relevant sectors themselves - hence their recommendations would likely be given quite a bit of weight.
Take Jeff Krichmar
for example, whose 27 page (!) CV can be found on his LinkedIn profile.Krichmar’s first job after graduating with a Bachelor in Computer Science (and before going to grad school to pursue his Master’s) was that of a software engineer at Raytheon Corporation (now RTX), working on the PATRIOT surface-to-air missile system - a position, which also saw him become a consultant to the Japanese Self-Defense Forces from 1988-1989, while deployed to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Nagoya (which to this day is manufacturing PATRIOT missiles for domestic use under license from RTX and Lockheed Martin).
Over the years, he has received quite a bit of funding from the defence-related sector, mostly from the US government, but also from Northrop Grumman.
In 2015 he gave an invited talk at Northrop Grumman…
… and he was co-author of a paper published in November 2016, whose first author, his then graduate student Tiffany Hwu, was a Basic Research Systems Engineer Intern with Northrop Grumman at the time. (“This work was supported by the National Science Foundation Award number 1302125 and Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems.”)
The neuromorphic hardware used for the self-driving robot was unsurprisingly IBM’s TrueNorth, as this was then the only neuromorphic chip around - Loihi wasn’t announced until September 2017.
One of the paper’s other co-authors was a former postdoctoral student of Krichmar’s, Nicolas Oros, who had started working for BrainChip in December 2014 - on his LinkedIn profile it says he was in fact our company’s first employee! He is also listed as co-inventor of the Low power neuromorphic voice activation system and method patent alongside Peter van der Made and Mouna Elkhatib.
Nicolas Oros left BrainChip in February 2021 and is presently a Senior Product Manager at Aicadium, “leading the development of a computer vision SaaS product for visual inspection”. I don’t think we’ve ever looked into them?
By the time of said paper’s publication, Jeff Krichmar had become a member of BrainChip’s Scientific Advisory Board - see this link of an April 2016 BRN presentation, courtesy of @uiux:
As mentioned before, Kristofor Carlson is another of Jeff Krichmar’s former postdoctoral students (from 2011-2015), who co-authored a number of research papers with Jeff Krichmar and Nikil Dutt (both UC Irvine) over the years - the last one published in 2019.
In September, Kris Carlson gave a presentation on TENNs at UC Irvine, as an invited speaker at SAB 2024: From Animals to Animats - 17th International Conference on the Simulation of Adaptive Behavior.
Kris Carlson’s September 2024 conference talk on TENNs and the CARL lab’s recent video and paper featuring an E-Puck2 robot, which had an Akida PCIe Board mounted on top, as well as the additional info contained in that 22 January 2025 paper that CARL researchers had already experimented with the brand new AKD1000 M.2 form factor is ample evidence that there is continued interest in what BrainChip is doing from Jeff Krichmar’s side.
Academic researchers like him could very well be door openers to people in charge of other entities’ research that will result in meaningful revenue one day…

Speaking of Northrop Grumman:
I am aware that a number of HC and TSE forum users have been speculating about a potential collaboration between NG and BRN for years.
While we still lack concrete evidence of such a collaboration, we know for sure the aerospace and defence giant has done quite a bit of neuromorphic research in recent years (eg. on event-based infrared camera technologies under the DARPA FENCE program - Fast Event-Based Neuromorphic Camera and Electronics; its Phase 2 was set to conclude in June 2024).
However, at least in the case of its UK-based Cyber & Intelligence business, neuromorphic researchers from Northrop Grumman presently appear to be working with SpiNNaker.
I happened to come across this LinkedIn post by a Northrop Grumman UK Senior Sourcing specialist the other day, looking for lead and principal data scientists in Cheltenham (which is home to a thriving cyber security ecosystem) and London:
https://www.northropgrumman.com/job...cheltenham/r10182322/principal-data-scientist
Further googling came up with this three month old LinkedIn post about a partnership with the University of Manchester that to me suggests the UK-based NG neuromorphic researchers have likely been working with SpiNNaker (-> Steve Furber’s lab):
