BRN Discussion Ongoing

[HopalongPetrovski]

So no one willing to comment on the latest podcast or is it that bad?

I thought it pretty optimistic and Ming Chih from Chelpis Quantum Corp was praising BrainChip for all the virtues we traditionally attribute to ourselves.
ie power efficiency, and the rest of swap, the security of processing at the edge eliminating both the lag and potential interception of sensitive data, and of course, our inbuilt ability of inference.
I also think he's impressed by our value and ability to be sourced as IP.
The plan to make a universal robotic platform where 60% of the basic substructure can be provided leaving the balance to be tailored to the particular devices task requirements, incorporating Akida, makes sense to me.
Why go to the trouble of completely redesigning every component of a robot when you can purchase the basic subunit "off the shelf" as a standardised platform, should save a lot of time, money and energy.
If we can be in a standardised platform used throughout Taiwan initially, and then perhaps Japan, and then perhaps picked up by USA, we would be well on our way.
I did find it helpful to use the closed captioning service on Youtube as Ming's accent can be a little difficult to understand at times.
Whilst not a perfect translation it was helpful addition to follow along.
I think Cyber security will be very big for us and hopefully we can get some commercial traction soon.

Just a recap from April:

BrainChip Collaborates with Chelpis-Mirle on Security Solution

Laguna Hills, Calif. – April 28th, 2025 – BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI, today announced that Chelpis Quantum Corp. has selected its Akida AKD1000 chips to serve as the processor for built-in post-quantum cryptographic security. Chelpis, a chip company leading the Quantum Safe Migration ecosystem in Taiwan, is developing an M.2 card using the AKD1000 that can be inserted into targeted products to support their cryptographic security solutions. The M.2 card is based on a design from BrainChip along with an agreement to purchase a significant number of AKD1000 chips for qualification and deployment. Upon completion of this phase, Chelpis is planning to increase its commitment with additional orders for the AKD1000.

This agreement is the first step in a collaboration that is exploring the development of an AI-PQC robotic chip designed to fulfill both next-generation security and AI computing requirements. This project is a joint development effort with Chelpis partner company Mirle (2464.TW) and has been formally submitted for consideration under Taiwan’s chip innovation program. The funding aims to promote a new system-on-chip (SoC) integrating RISC-V, PQC, and NPU technologies. This SoC will specifically support manufacturing markets that emphasize a Made-in-USA strategy. Mirle plans to build autonomous quadruped robotics that mimic the movement of four-legged animals for industrial/factory environments. To enable this vision, Chelpis is exploring BrainChip’s advanced Akida™ IP to incorporate advanced visual GenAI capabilities in the proposed SoC design.

Renesas Sets New MCU Performance Bar with 1-GHz RA8P1 Devices with AI Acceleration

www.renesas.com

The Renesas RA8P1 does not use neuromorphic technology in the sense of spiking neural networks (SNN) or neuromorphic chips. Instead, the RA8P1 is based on a classic digital approach to AI acceleration... because it's using a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU)—specifically, the Arm Ethos-U55 NPU.

The Ethos-U55 is designed specifically to accelerate common machine learning operations such as those found in convolutional and recurrent neural networks, providing significant energy efficiency and performance improvements for ML inference in area- and power-constrained environments.

And yes, it uses also an Arm Cortex-M85 processor with Helium MVE.

Renesas' documentation and product descriptions explicitly mention AI performance, NPU, and classic AI models, but not neuromorphic approaches such as those used by BrainChip (Akida) or other SNN-based systems.

RA8P1 - 1GHz Arm Cortex-M85 and Ethos-U55 NPU Based AI Microcontroller

The RA8P1 group features Renesas’s first 32-bit AI-accelerated microcontrollers (MCUs) powered by the high-performance Arm® Cortex®-M85 (CM85) and Ethos™-U55 NPU.

Bravo's BrainChip Community Update: Still No Announcement… But Here's 300 Words That Sound REALLY IMPORTANT​

Fellow Aki-dakians, Neuromorphic Noobs, and Edge Enthusiasts,

We interrupt this regularly scheduled period of complete and utter boredom to bring you… another non-update.

Yes, the ASX remains tragically announcement-free. But don’t be fooled - beneath this tranquil facade lies a veritable cacophony of untethered synaptic activity. Somewhere, deep within a bunker protected by quantum-hardened encryption and at least one espresso machine, a team of engineers is currently adjusting a spiking temporal module and running recursive TENN topologies through a pseudo-stochastic inference grid.

What does it all mean?

Nothing.
We still can’t tell you.
NDAs thicker than a plank of prettified wood.

However, rest assured that at this very moment:

• An ultra low-power Akida SoC is classifying dust particles using event-based micro-Doppler signatures.
• Someone, hopefully one of our staff members, is feeding radar chirps into a latency-pruned, TENNs-optimized, biologically plausible digitally anodised, neuronal array to connect onto some poor unsuspecting person's cortical column.
• And a squirrel may or may not be running a keyword detection model on a single microwatt run off a truss tomato.

Meanwhile, corporate remains in a hyper-inference pre-commercialization phase of the prove-it-silently-then-scale-it-later pipeline (patent pending).

So, the news is - there is still no news - not a brass razoo's worth of it to be found anywhere.

But oh, the potential theoretical news that could one day emerge! It gives me tingles up and down my axon hillock just thinking about it!

Stay strong. Stay speculative.

And remember: in the world of edge AI,
"Sometimes the quietest chips make the loudest impact."


Yours in low-power optimism,
Bravo on behalf of the powers that be.

Give them some slack they are probably really busy finalising multiple deals as we speak

 

[Bravo]

Raytheon's in the money!

Another juicy defense contract - this time for next-gen GPS receivers. I wonder if our technology could be helpful in this type of GPS-integrated defense system???

It wouldn't replace or power the GPS receiver itself but, presumably it could process the data the GPS module helps generate, or help improve situational awareness or navigation in GPS-denied/jammed environments. For example, a drone that loses GPS due to jamming could rely on Akida to interpret IMU or radar signals for continued navigation.

GPS is typically embedded into broader systems like missiles, UAVs, guided vehicles that also use radar and motion sensing. Receivers are often embedded into handheld soldier equipment, loitering munitions, recon UAVs and satellites & rovers. All of these platforms are size, weight, and power-constrained (SWaP).

Let’s be honest - if Raytheon’s got a cool $77 million lying around, surely they can spare a few bucks for another one of our licenses.

Tony: (spotlight on, hopeful gaze)
Could be… who knows?
There’s something due… any day now!
It could cannonball from the sky…
Or maybe just… quietly die?

Investor Choir: (soft jazz hands, mild despair)

We’ve been waiting here,
Since the LinkedIn post appeared…
Tony teased a dream,
But the chart’s still flat, we fear…

IR Team: (whispering backstage)
“Shhh! Not material… not just yet…
Patience, folks… no need to fret…”

Tony: (arms wide, dramatic pause)
Could it be? Yes it could!
Something’s coming… if it would…
We should stay… tuned…
To absolutely… nothing new.
