Move on, nothing to see.
I know the following isn’t a strong enough word but it fits in quite neatly:
A. Akida
S. Standard
S. in plain Sight
U. Ubiquitous
A. AI
G. Game changing
E. Essential/Edge
D Defacto
Akida ASSUAGED the need for ultra low power at the edge.

The part I was interested in was the SNC which I’ve now worked out was a Sensor Node Controller. It’s been around for a while but maybe they’re using our 2 nodes for that purpose due to its low power?

My mind says this. Brainchip's strength is the no-brainer future of Edge Sensors helping humans have better lives. Bring on the sensors and patterns, Akida can use logic to make decisions smarter than humans. Side note (a 3D printing company I follow had 8 sensors in their last model, now 75). The point is edge sensor explosion ahead.
Surfing last night (www) and noticed that the Co Founder of AONDevices was a former employee of Brainchip, now I would imagine its a small world in the Edge AI space but I just wonder weather Mouna still keeps in touch with BRN.
Apologies if already been ogred it caught my key word spotting eye.
Edge Compute
Brainchip smarts can deal with Patterns in all forms. Then store the data temporarily in superfast binary form (small bit and bytes/fast/low power). MegaChips/Renesas/Nviso/Brainchip/Sony/Others helping technology monitor in room care, plus the automobile safety braking. Video smarts to help caretakers is an awesome Medical USE CASE. It is so enjoyable to invest in what you enjoy following.
The Ecosystem news flow is nuts, building, and kind of easy to see. Logic says low downside risk, huge upside. Just my take.

Thanks for that TG. I now have better understanding of what MetaData is. For a non techy this is simple language.

Instead of Laughing, did anyone read the PDF on the SNC posted by Renesas. It’s a convoluted process of power management and I can’t see where an NPU or any Akida nodes could be included.

Ok. I got more laughs than I care for.
"(There's) no such thing as a stupid question" is a common phrase, that states that the quest for knowledgeincludes failure, and that just because one person may know less than others, they should not be afraid to ask rather than pretend they already know. In many cases multiple people may not know, but are too afraid to ask the "stupid question"; the one who asks the question may in fact be doing a service to those around them.

Didn’t mean to offend you. I was laughing with you as I quite often feel the same way when reading a lot of the technical information and sometimes the answers given to me are riddles!
I looked at the Renesas page about the SNC but it’s still Chinese to me
. (For some reason it won’t let me copy it across at the moment so I’ve got to take photographs). I haven’t seen anything about SNN, or Akida so dissapointingly I think it’s a no however when it comes to computers ”I know nothing.”Cheers!

Thanks for sharing.
At the 15 min 30 seconds Rob telson says they’ve helped NASA get to orbit and also they’ve been able to capture images at extreme low power and touches on helping Mercedes achieve their goals…and he said other vehicle manufacturers, plural!

DEVELOPING SECURE VISION-BASED DESIGNS
IoT and Vision: Why It’s a Security Minefield and How to Navigate ItArm
Recent advancements in machine learning have enabled market innovators to build insights from IoT sensors in the wild. These insights can be used to solve complex real-world challenges. The lack of security in typical vision-based IoT solutions is especially concerning, as they are typically responsible for managing sensitive data (PID, CCTV) or critical systems (cars, machinery). Security is rarely the first thought for developers of new types of solutions, but making systems secure after the fact is difficult since a holistic approach is required. Exacerbating this challenge of achieving end-to-end security, the development and deployment of IoT systems often involves multiple handovers of responsibility, which can make achieving end-to-end security difficult. And, due to the complexity and diversity of these systems, security bodies have been unable to prescribe “silver bullet” solutions. Based on first-hand experience, this 2021 Embedded Vision Summit presentation from Dr. Lyndon Fawcett, Principal Software Security Architect at Arm, provides insights to help decision-makers better understand key challenges and potential solutions for providing secure vision-based IoT systems.
A Secure Hardware Architecture for Embedded VisionNeuroBinder
Security is a problem for every IoT system, but due to privacy concerns, security is particularly worrisome for embedded vision systems. In this talk from the 2021 Embedded Vision Summit, Jonathan Cefalu, CEO and founder of NeuroBinder, covers how to design your embedded device so that the hardware architecture itself enforces strict guarantees about where visual data is able to flow. In particular, Cefalu explores the idea of a “data diode” that uses hardware to enforce what parts of the system have access to video or images. This provides the highest level of protection against hacking or malware, as even if the device is completely hacked at the root level, the intruder will still be unable to access the visual data.
HARDWARE FOR VISION SENSING AND PROCESSING
A New Adaptive Module for Vision AI at the EdgeAMD
Kria System-on-Modules (SOMs), as described by Chetan Khona, Director of the Industrial, Vision, Healthcare and Science Markets at Xilinx (now part of AMD) in this 2021 Embedded Vision Summit presentation, provide a secure, production-ready multi-core Arm and FPGA platform, including memories, power management, and Yocto or Ubuntu Linux to build accelerated AI-enabled applications at the edge. Kria SOMs enable smart vision applications across cities, factories, and hospitals to achieve high performance with low latency, low power consumption and a small footprint. And Kria SOMs feature a radical new way to design with Accelerated Applications via the App Store. Kria Accelerated Apps offer an industry-first: they enable both new and experienced designers to skip doing any FPGA design. Accelerated Apps give the SOM the personality of a purpose-built smart camera, AI box, or other vision AI system. Apps are fully accelerated—including image acquisition, pre-processing, AI inference, post-processing, encoding and connectivity—offering the highest performance for industrial use cases. Accelerated Apps span license plate recognition, retail shopper re-identification, HDR image signal processing, natural language processing and more.
An Introduction to Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes—A New Type of Imager for Computer VisionUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison
The single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) is an emerging image sensing technology with unique capabilities relevant to computer vision applications. Originally designed for imaging in low-light conditions, the ultra-high time resolution of SPADs also helps to achieve extremely high dynamic range, motion blur-free images and even seeing around corners. The use of SPADs in recent iPhone models has spurred increased interest in the use of SPADs in commercial products. In this talk from the 2021 Embedded Vision Summit, Sebastian Bauer, Postdoctoral Student at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, introduces SPAD-based imagers, explains how they work, presents their fundamental capabilities, and identifies their key strengths and weaknesses relative to conventional image sensors. He also shows how they can be used in a variety of applications.

Rob also later mentions “over 5000 unique users” of the MetaTF software. Pretty sure it was 4500 only a few weeks back. So what does this increase of 500+ users represent? New companies? If so, how many? 5, 10, 50, 100? Or is it existing companies ramping up their development? Maybe a bit of both?
Bravo
If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
Sounds like the BrainChip team also invented a new acronym!
I like it AIoT!

We started using this term a few months ago, a lot more freely than we have in the past and that is AIoT. That's applying the intelligence to the IoT devices. And so you're going to start seeing that pick-up in the world that we live in. Our whole ojective is to make sensors really efficient, really smart in very tiny ML environments.

Hi DB.Looks like the shorters still have some fight huh..
Well I'm sure those borrowed shares, will get soaked up
As i mentioned in yesterdays post about the Shorting , wait to see if they (THM/HC/MF) have done more Shorts on Tuesday (yesterday) as the trading pattern seemed to suggest they had.
Todays action shows more "Shorting" activity thought it is very small really considering the weak market (ASX) today.
Well the Data is in and ............Yes they did take out some more "Shorts" yesterday - 3.8 Mil NEW shorts for Tuesday
after Mondays 3.3 Mil and Fridays 11.3 Mil.
Quite a lot of shorts................and the SP is still up around 0.90c aprox.
NOT going very good for them so far! lol
