BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Fact Finder]

That's funny Super, I spent some time the other night trying to piece the two companies together.

Didn't get very far though. Lucid is using NVIDIA DRIVE.

Mercedes is using Nvidia.

This means nothing as Nvidia probably has its own SCNN technology and it was Mercedes that insisted on using Brainchip’s AKIDA. They build cars what would they know?

Nvidia must have been very annoyed at not being able to use their own SCNN?

What’s that you say Nvidia does not have its own SCNN and Brainchip’s is patent protected and the only one in the market and available as both chip and IP.

So given that Nvidia as Rob Telson said is not in competition with Brainchip and its opportunity to capture market share in automotive would be enhanced by offering their system with AKIDA to create a five to 10 times more energy efficient system than their competitors why would Nvidia deny itself this opportunity to partner up with Brainchip on other projects???

Just a refresher regarding Nanose, this was back in July of 2021, it’s been 10 months, we’ve got Professor Hossam presenting I believe end of May?

Well we may hear something regarding nanose over the next couple of months.

I'm not sure if I'm looking at the right date here but this link https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03967652, has the following nanose trial details:

Study Type : Observational
Estimated Enrollment : 10000 participants
Observational Model: Other
Time Perspective: Prospective
Official Title: Diagnosing Cancers From Healthy From Human Exhaled Breath With Na-nose
Estimated Study Start Date : July 1, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 31, 2020
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 31, 2022

The last time I looked I thought it said May 31 2022. Can anyone confirm here because I'm a little confused by this date?

“MegaChips is thrilled to offer the most turn-key solution for enterprise companies looking to implement AI technology,” said Douglas Fairbairn, Director of Business Development. “The expansion to the United States is an excellent opportunity for us to bring our edge AI expertise to some of the most innovative technology companies. Be it sensing, voice and image recognition, or other applications, MegaChips is the first and best choice for implementing Edge AI from ideation to silicon.”

Just another very solid brick in the path to success....is it any wonder that greatness & integrity go hand in hand.
We fit like a glove...in my opinion, future growth will emerge stronger and more widespread than most could ever imagine.

Jumping off this juggernaut within the next 2 years would be at your own peril....Brainchip has been the same winner to me at least for close on 7 years now...never doubted our company, well, maybe once, 5 years ago

Oh ok, thanks Diogenese. Sorry, didn't realise they had 2 different timeframes.

Hi Tas.
Yes shorts would probably have been covered today by those in "charge" but I suspect that there will be many "caught" out who were not privy to the change coming about which certainly appears to have started today. Tomorrow will be intriguing to see if it follows through on todays action. A perfect storm has eventuated.
I am moderately confident that it will follow through. Watch Europe & USA trades for an indication tonight.
As for BRN not being a "leaky ship" well it is certainly not a bad as some but there are definitely people within the surrounding business circle who make moves before impending news reaches the masses about Brainchip!
As with any stock/company of this size and diversified product range (customers) it is impossible to be water "tight" on info. There are literally thousands of people involved with AKIDA and have some knowledge about their part being played and its "marketability" and therefore influence on BRN share price.
Cannot keep all quiet forever! Human nature says that some will profit from that knowledge.
EVERYONE on Planet Earth has had plenty of time and forewarning about BrainChip to enable them to take a position in BRN by now!

Are YOU on the bus yet?

DYOR as usual.

Sorry FF, my comments weren't very clear.

I should have qualified that by no means does this exclude BrainChip involvement, I just don't know yet how and whether it all ties together with NVIDIA. I also couldn't find anything else in isolation which suggested Akida was being used by Lucid.

Cheers and nice price action today.

Just think if someone was to purchase 2,581,513 shares in one buy order we would have a share price of $20.

Hi Evermont,

This is a snapshot of a recent Nvidia AV set-up:


WO2021030376A1 PERFORMING MATRIX OPERATIONS IN NEURAL NETWORKS

The invention relates to weakly-supervised object detection using one or more neural networks. Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to detect object in images including digital representations of those objects. In at least one embodiment, one or more objects are detected in an image based, at least in part, on one or more pseudo-labels corresponding to said one or more objects.
...
In at least one embodiment, one or more of SoC(s) 1304 may include one or more accelerator(s) 1314 (e.g., hardware accelerators, software accelerators, or a combination thereof). In at least one embodiment, SoC(s) 1304 may include a hardware acceleration cluster that may include optimized hardware accelerators and/or large on-chip memory. In at least one embodiment, large on-chip memory (e.g., 4MB of SRAM), may enable hardware acceleration cluster to accelerate neural networks and other calculations. In at least one embodiment, hardware acceleration cluster may be used to complement GPU(s) 1308 and to off-load some of tasks of GPU(s) 1308 (e.g., to free up more cycles of GPU(s) 1308 for performing other tasks). In at least one embodiment, accelerator(s) 1314 could be used for targeted workloads (e.g., perception, convolutional neural networks ("CNNs”), recurrent neural networks (“RNNs”), etc.) that are stable enough to be amenable to acceleration. In at least one embodiment, a CNN may include a region-based or regional convolutional neural networks ("RCNNs”) and Fast RCNNs (e.g., as used for object detection) or other type of CNN. In at least one embodiment, accelerator(s) 1314 (e.g., hardware acceleration cluster) may include a deep learning accelerator(s) ("DLA). DLA(s) may include, without limitation, one or more Tensor processing units ("TPUs) that may be configured to provide an additional ten trillion operations per second for deep learning applications and inferencing.

Mercedes is using Nvidia.

AKIDA BALLISTA

... and this one shows Nvidia using ALUs, and, tragically, CNNs:

US2021073612A1 MACHINE-LEARNING-BASED ARCHITECTURE SEARCH METHOD FOR A NEURAL NETWORK

FIG. 17A illustrates inference and/or training logic, according to at least one embodiment;
FIG. 17B illustrates inference and/or training logic, according to at least one embodiment;

differentiable neural architecture search and reinforcement learning are combined under one framework to discover network architectures with desired properties such as high accuracy, low latency, or both. In at least one embodiment, an objective function for search based on generalization error prevents the selection of architectures prone to overfitting.
...
In at least one embodiment, accelerator(s) 2014 could be used for targeted workloads (e.g., perception, convolutional neural networks (“CNNs”), recurrent neural networks (“RNNs”), etc.) that are stable enough to be amenable to acceleration. In at least one embodiment, a CNN may include a region-based or regional convolutional neural networks (“RCNNs”) and Fast RCNNs (e.g., as used for object detection) or other type of CNN.

So replacing Nvidia's CNN function with Akida's CNN2SNN would work wonders for power reduction and speed of operation.

I don't mean to throw a turd in the punchbowl, but watch out for the US markets this coming week. (The U.S. markets....) they WANT to keep falling. They NEED to keep falling. With a few of the big boys reporting next week even good results from them could be punished.

The U.S. Fed is running the countries equities market show for awhile more. I think the best that Brainchip could do in this environment is a "meh" market reaction. Not too hot and not too cold. Just give us some incremental improvement hopefully, management reporting on continued customer engagement progress and an overall thumbs up report from management.

And then let the necessary passage of time put the worldwide macro events impacting markets everywhere right now (Ukraine, rising interest rates in U.S., inflation- at least in the U.S., worker shortages, etc), behind us, ...and pray that no significant virus varients pop up to shut things down again.

Brainchip is still in the early stages, afterall. I will always want them to under promise, and over deliver.

Sorry everyone, but that's just my opinion on the coming week ahead. Regards, dippY

I repost this from a few weeks ago. Why? Because yesterdays U.S. market reaction was bizzare. I would rather have had it go down and today just spun it's wheels. But no, it is like riding a roller coaster yesterday and today. Sorry, everyone, but the turd in the punchbowl remains in play for U.S. equities, in my opinion. Meaning the Fed is still in charge, and will be for awhile I'm afraid, ...the tail wagging the market dog.

What has this to do with Brainchip? Nothing apparently, because late Thursday morning it is tracking Thursday's ASX action and is up nearly 9.5%, a lone bright spot in a vast sea of red. C'mon Australia, keep the pedal to the metal.

Just some notes to the automotive sector of Germany.
At Mercedes the hardware development goes completely to Nvidia starting in 2024, while the software development (new Mercedes OS) stays at Mercedes. The production cars will change to Nvidia Orin, which is in use in the EQXX together with Akida. So the future will hopefully be Nvidia/Brainchip/Luminar for Mercedes.
At least there is one competition rising in the neuromorphic field of automotive. BMW is working on a Qualcomm/SynSense/Prophesee solution.
Volkswagen is in research with Qualcomm, software development by Bosch.
Bosch is in research with Black Sesame.

Interesting note from Volkswagen in this article:

Autonomes Fahren: Volkswagen setzt auf SoC von Qualcomm

Volkswagen wird bei der Entwicklung autonomer Fahrfunktionen künftig mit Qualcomm zusammenarbeiten.

www.automotiveit.eu

Translation of the most important part:

Qualcomm cooperation prevents "gag contract"

According to a report by the Handelsblatt, which first reported on the deal, the chips that Volkswagen will purchase from Qualcomm were still fully developed by the US group. This is set to change in the future: Volkswagen is planning to develop semiconductors itself together with Bosch. Corresponding news from the group can be expected this year.

By opting for Bosch as a software partner, Volkswagen can better defend itself against the influence of the tech industry and is not forced to sign a "gag contract". "Because in contrast to other chip manufacturers, Qualcomm was the only company that offered us cooperation on an equal footing," the Handelsblatt quoted an insider as saying. The contract is based on quantities and not on a revenue-sharing model like Mercedes-Benz.

BRAINCHIP STOCK PRICE (THURSDAY NIGHT-AEST). 5:00am

BRCHF USA stock prices

High for the night was 72.5c USD and............ was 70c or +6.06% at 5:20am

Very good result for BRN when the DOW was down - 3.5% or 1100 points and NASDAQ was down - 5% or -700 points.

The FUNDERMENTALS of BrainChip are what is holding here head up with the Market downtrends!
$40 Mill in CASH enough for 1.5 yrs and LDA available for more cash after that if required.
Breaking trough into Sales Growth with contracts and many agreements/partnerships in place along with the corresponding products to use AKIDA products.
TOP Business names as partners such as MERC etc
CONTRACTs with companies like MEGACHIPs etc.

SOLID Fundermentals & SOLID Technicals will stand BRN well against any market turndown.

All in my opinion of course. DYOR. (back to bed for me!)

Thanks very much Perhaps. Excellent work!

Your night started out good with an SP opening of 69 Euro. Sliding back to 65 is a shame but still heaps better than nearly every stock on the NASD & DOW tonight! lol.

Such a shame to see all those Retail, 401(k) holders losing so much thanks to INSTO activity & traders!
Up 3.5% yeserday (DOW) and today down 3.5% (DOW). Just stinging the poor old unsuspecting retail mum & dads.
Gotta keep the Banks happy I suppose. (not!)

Hi sb182.

REALLY wish you were correct but sorry your not.

That list you got the numbers from is the DAILY (NEW) SHORTS to be added to the total. This was the amount placed on Weds 4th May only.
The good news is there were only 246,796 NEW shorts instead of it being 1-2 Mil.

The TOTAL outstanding GROSS shorts on Tuesday 3rd May was - 56,314,374 [ this number may have changed since Tuesday ]
The TOTAL outstanding NET shorts on Tuesday 3rd May was - 48,485,473 [again this number may have changed since Tuesday ]

TOTAL Percentage shorted on Tuesday 3rd may was = 2.83% of stock.

Weds was a neutral day in trading for BRN (SP wise) and maybe a sizeable number of shorts were covered then. (Maybe).
Also (Maybe) yesterdays (Thursday) +10% gain might have scared a few Shorters into covering positions quickly. lol
