BRN Discussion Ongoing

[thelittleshort]

Hi @thelittleshort

The issue is firstly one of definition.

To understand what every player is talking about we need a definition of Edge computing which does not exist.

As you have probably seen it seems to be the world wide consensus that everyone is moving to the Edge and it is a huge and growing market.

This fact in itself means that every player is claiming to service the Edge and while ever there is no agreed definition this will mean that what you and I might think this means will likely not be what they are claiming to be addressing.

What I suggest you do is listen again to the Brainchip podcast between Rob Telson and Rob Lincourt DELL Technologies where he discusses this issue. DELL are in favour of the term End Point in lieu of the term Edge.

Now having said this there are some agreed Edge or end points such as drones, motor vehicles, mobile phones and house hold appliances.

All of these Edge or end points can require connection but cannot provide appropriate performance if they need connection at all times.

So yes AKIDA does target connected Edge but in a way that others cannot as it does not require connection and so it can process on chip and take action at the Edge and if required send that processed information as meta data to a local server or a cloud server.

The CEO Sean Hehir made the point that Brainchip was already at the Edge. A good example of this is the Nviso in cabin demonstration where an ice cold little AKD1000 is processing at 250 frames a second and the very hot Nvidia CPU which they claim to be an Edge processor is running at 20 to 25 frames per second.

In the 2021 Ai Field Day presentation Anil Mankar said
“Some of our IP is going to microcontrollers so that they actually have Ai built in, so the analysis can be done with the hardware that’s in the microcontroller.” - Renesas

I think it was @jtardif999 who calculated that the average cost of a Renesas MCU was 65 cents.

Think about that AKIDA can make smart a 65 cent MCU and the only trade off will be latency.

Thanks to the Edge that only AKIDA can occupy every device everywhere can be intelligent either connected or unconnected with ludicrously tiny power budgets and still if required be connected.

My opinion only DYOR

Thanks FF - I’m glad I asked. Great response

How many brn hippies here from those days?

This is still the data from

these are still the numbers from saturday mornings (US Friday) close. The futures are irrelevant til about mid arvo Monday our time

Thanks, but in my opinion, the closing US futures, are still relevant, from a general "market sentiment" perspective, when taken together with the very strong performance of the Dow and Nasdaq, on Friday.

The ref scored a nice try just on half time and it's been downhill since.

I think donald trump appointed the referee.

On a positive note, its 1 games each soon.
Make the 3rd games more interesting.

Queenslanders are like Shorters.......burn baby burn.....lol, they aren't nearly that bad really, my daughter married and turned into one.....but still barracks for Collingwood thank goodness....

Hi Violin1,

The ❤ wasn't for the Shorters,
Its was for the Pie.

Learning,
PS. I think, I just expose myself. A little too much. Lol.

Correct

Like @Slade said, can we just keep to BRN.

Tomorrow’s a new day. Start of a new week in which we see the end of another financial year. Good things to come.

 

[Fact Finder]

End of financial year perfect time to write off a loss.

We will get ‘em next year.

Yes - but then we had the 60's.

Agree on compulsory voting - (although I think democracy is wasted on the masses). But we do need some control on the amount of election expenses - and a threshold primary vote count for the last senate seat.

Interesting reading some of your thoughts re: United States function & dis-function. I so badly want to comment but I am trying hard to refrain. I came here for Brainchip discussion. But I can't help myself.

Just two comments about improving my beloved country. 1) Enact term limits (....fat chance). THEN, perhaps, mandatory voting might work.
2) Disallow, or reverse, personhood for corporations (...fat chance, since they own elected officials).

I'm resigned that America will always be on fire, ....literally, figuratively, and metaphorically.
