Ok for those of you that have insomnia like i seem. to have tonight here is a 48min presentation by John Deere which i found very interesting.
For those that are about to sleep with no insomnia fast forward and watch Jorge Heraud at around 44.00mins to 47.00 and he will provide you with MORE extact words MORE WITH LESS words including "the future of farming starts today."
i sure hope John Deere knows Brainchip as they are also promoting more with less.

Hi MD,
Prior to the CES myself and a no. of others got excited about John Deere running autonomously however when it came out the conclusion was we weren’t involved. I think from memory they were using gps to navigate. I read somewhere the nature of farming it is too dusty to rely on LiDAR.
Not to say we couldn’t be used in the future but I’m confident it was recently ogred!
Just saving u from the rabbit hole I got lost in a few months back!
Cheers

Thanks Stable yep i did read that somewhere anout the dust too but the see and spray technique might hold ground in the near future.
I think incabin sensors in tractors could also be handy but when the tractor is chopping yes outside dust could be an issue for lidar.
Anyway it was a good 48min video and im still awake what will i find next ...lol

Nah Jaaaaag definitely does not have a point!
It's also worth noting that Jag is a CEO of a apparently "legitimate" media company. Yet he spends his time on Twitter battling us
If I were a shareholder of TMH I'd be pretty pissed off if saw the CEO of a company I've invested in battling so called trolls on Twitter! Great use of company time there. It's all good though cause Jaaaaag has told us that ***************** is doing a big piece on brainchip. He also said he has been in touch with Mercedes!

I think they should have named it Echidna. Also known as Spike Lol.I think they should change the Company’s name, to just AKIDA.
"Everything you need in A.I. Is in the name"
Getting away completely, from a "chip" reference, would be better marketing, in my opinion.
I can see them continually having to tell new customers, "No, we just supply the IP..."
Plus, it would really help the value of my Rego plates
For overseas members, an Echidna is an Australian animal with spiky quills all over it.

ARM battles RISC-V at Renesas

Renesas Electronics is looking to catch up in the ARM microcontroller and processor markets, but also looking at the emerging RISC-V cores and new spiking AI accelerators to boost machine learning in the Internet of Things (IoT).
At the same time a deal with Arduino aims to drive its chips into many more areas, says Dr. Sailesh Chittipeddi, Executive Vice President and General Manager of IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit of Renesas Electronics talking to eeNews Europe.
“We’ve been doing a lot over the last several years,” said Chittipeddi. “We are primarily strengthening our microcontroller and microprocessor core capabilities which is the heart and soul of the business. We had fallen behind in the ARM ecosystem and we had a strong push to catch up and we have been. We are a long way from being the leader in this market, but the early indicators are good,” he said.
This desire to catch up is reflected by the showing of the first device using the ARM Cortex-M85 core, the highest performance microcontroller core, at Embedded World next month. But with the recent acquisitions of Dialog Semiconductor in the UK and Celeno in Israel the company is adding more wireless capabilities as well as a whole new FPGA business.
With the future of ARM uncertain with the failed Nvidia bid and now a public offering, the company is also looking at the RISC-V alternative through deals with Andes Technology and SiFive as well as its own internal development.
- Renesas launches 64bit RISC-V microprocessors with ARM compatible pinout
- Renesas to show first ARM M85 silicon
- Renesas boosts entry level ARM controller performance
The company is used to dealing with multiple instruction set architectures. Over the years it has subsumed the Hitachi SuperH and Mitsubishi microcontroller technologies into its own proprietary families alongside a wide range of ARM-based devices.
“So the other side, we’ve introduced our first RISC-V based products as well into the marketplace, which is actually quite exciting from my perspective. And one of the main reasons why we went ahead with the RISC-V products as opposed to test chips, which a lot of people spoke about was really to make sure that we didn’t fall behind,” he said.
The first 32bit cores and devices are targeted at specific applications. “One being the motor controller and the other being the voice based device. So those two are first two products but we will have a portfolio of products which will introduce over the next several years for certain target markets,” he said.
“On the MPU side that was a major reboot because that business is primarily focused on ASICs and high end R-Car devices. So what we did do is we did a major pivot again about roughly about three years ago to go after two categories of products. One is the general purpose microprocessor, which is a 64 bit microprocessor and ranging from the A53 all the way to A72AE [safety critical] cores.
The other side is the embedded AI with DRP dynamically reconfigurable processor for vision solutions. That’s a feedforward neural network rather than a convolutional neural network (CNN), and it offers reasonable 0.5TOPS to 10TOPS at very low power compared to day the Nvidia or Intel equivalent. From my perspective RISC-V will evolve into that areas in the not too distant future.
“So that’s kind of the plan that we have, to evolve that into that landscape,” he said. “At the very low end, we have added an ARM M33 MCU and spiking neural network with BrainChip core licensed for selected applications – we have licensed what we need to license from BrainChip including the software to get the ball rolling.”
“The MPU with RISC-V allows us to go int a new class of applications,” he said. “With RISC-V its all a question of time. I do see ARM now offering custom instructions but I do see the open ecosystem starting to play a role with the geopolitical tensions and that will provide some necessary impetus in certain regions to head in that direction and that will the ecosystem
“To ARM’s credit the ecosystem they have developed is unparalleled and it would be difficult for RISC-V to catch up even with all its strong backing, it’ll take quite a bit of time.”
So Renesas has deals with both Andes and SiFive for RISC-V cores.
“For us to get to the market quickly we went with the Andes cores on the microcontrollers and we partnered with SiFive. It’s not that we are confused, its about the time to market and internally we are developing our own optimised architectures, and the software that needs to be developed we are doing in parallel.”
Security is also vital with the UK as a key design centre. “We are spending a lot of time on security particularly side channel attacks, tamper resistance, going beyond ARM’s TrustZone,” he said. “ At the moment we think our internal efforts are leading with centres in the UK and Japan and obviously edge devices are more vulnerable.”
The recent acquisition of Dialog Semiconductor also brought FPGA technology into the company for the first time.

- Renesas enters the FPGA business
“The issues with CPUs is they are single threaded in general and the option to multithread is to add cores. The nice thing about FPGAs is they allow multithreading but with expense and more complex software. So what Dialog did with GreenPak was come up with a configurable engine with 5000 gates or 1000 to 2000 look up tables and drawing 20uA and a cost of 50c or below at high volume so you can see why it is well positioned against a typical multicore CPU. This kind of moves more towards a faster approach in that direction We don’t complete with Intel or AMD or Lattice or Microchip, they have much more horsepower.
The tools are an important element for the ease of development. “With the software we offer both HDL and the more traditional Verilog approaches but the nice thing about GreenPak was the GUI was easy to use and we are taking a very similar approach for the Forge FPGA so its an easy to use GUI that will be very similar for the users of GreenPak to adopt and you can copackage a Forge FPGA with a GreenPak state machine. Down the pike you can see an integrated solution.”
Many of the microcontrollers are built on legacy process technologies that suit the analog and mixed signal peripherals, rather than the leading edge technologies. However the pressure on these legacy process technologies have been one of the key factors in the chip shortage.
“We are well equipped with our foundry partners, especially at 40nm and 25nm which continue to be tight but the bulk of MCU and MPU is internal capacity on 40, 25 and 22nm which is where we will be over the next few years,” he said. “At 28 to 180nm in foundry, that’s the tightest in the world and that will take another couple of years to free up given the lead times for the equipment are stretching to 30 months up from 18 months. It will take quite some time for even the greenfield projects to come on line so there will be glut in capacity in time but the good thing in general is there are corrections in the market but the overall semiconductor consumption is going up massively in automotive and industrial automation and digitalisation, that’s driving a lot of long term growth,” he said.
“We are still a way away from a 3nm world. Our most advanced MPUs are 7/5nm but that’s driven by high end applications largely in the industrial ecosystem. What we are doing for the first time is going to the 1-2GHz range with general purpose MPUs and we will be getting to that level of performance on MCUs but that can be at a node that’s a level behind
He plans to have an MCU running over 1GHz next year but it is the mix of cores that is key as well as connectivity.
“We are moving to a world that’s less CPU or MPU to more AI centric and that will drive changes with intelligence moving to the edge,” he said. “That’s an important trend, driving the need for maximum compute at the lowest power consumption.
“For us one of the weak points was connectivity as we were trying to do it all in-house,” he said. “Dialog gave us the low power for wearables, earbuds and headsets and they had a 2.4GHz solution for low power WiFi. We felt we needed a path to WiFi5 and 6, 6E as we see 6E having a bigger role in industrial hence the Israel deal and that gives us 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz. With MCUs you need access to the cloud, you need seamless access to the cloud.”
The Arduino deal is also key he says.
“We have formed a strategic partnership with Arduino as they have this base of 30m users and by working with them we think we have a good opportunity for MCUs, sensors, power and connectivity,” he said. “I think Arduino will move into a broader application space by working with an outfit such as us with our base of industrial customers and they have their roadmaps to expand so we have an opportunity to work with them. Even if its hobbyist it’s a pathway to get university students hooked on Arduino today and they will be the engineers tomorrow making the buying decisions”

I take this seriously, there will be masses of billions financed by the EU invested in addition to private investments. I had also mentioned it before, stupid who does not hold out his hand and the Bonseyes consortium has already done it. I remember Nvisio, ARM and ZF.Do they use the word UBIQUITOUS?

I was sailing the days and then in Hamburg. There is the Miniatur Wunderland. I had a John Deere in my hand in the store. Unfortunately, it was not yet 'autonomous'. I wanted to buy him, but did not know how to get him to you. Thousands of products and the Deere jumps in my eye! Brainchip is ubique...

With the control panel of this world's largest plant, I also thought only of the detection and Akida. I must also think about other things
than always only Brainchip

Good Morning All.
Some good news on the Biotome front...
The patent for biological markers has been lodged and accepted by the US. It should vest Q3 2022.
Works with Brainchip are ongoing and positive so far, with an update and results expected Q4 2022.
Further, Biotome is starting to kick goals on the Research partnership funding front with various educational institutions. Overall a very positive outcome for a small Australian company trying to improve the lives of people everywhere.
