Some news, hot off the press, on the the BYD passenger car brand and that it's next generation of fleets will be built on....NVDIA's DRIVE Hyperion architecture.

Extract 1

BYD, working together with Hedin Mobility Group, will now actively embark on selecting top dealers from different regions in Germany to represent the BYD passenger car brand. Hedin Mobility Group is one of Europe’s largest privately owned dealership groups, operating over 230 dealerships in eight countries, including Germany, with a significant dealership footprint across Scandinavia. It sold more than 125,000 vehicles in 2021. Hedin Mobility Group will sell BYD’s vehicles in Sweden through its dealership group Hedin Bil and via the specially selected dealerships in Germany.


Extract 2

Recently, the company announced that it is building its next-generation fleets on the NVIDIA’S DRIVE Hyperion architecture. This platform, based on DRIVE Orin, is now in production, and powering a wide ecosystem of 25 EV makers building software-defined vehicles on high-performance, energy-efficient AI compute. The open DRIVE Hyperion 8 platform allows these companies to individualize this programmable architecture to their needs, leveraging end-to-end solutions to accelerate autonomous driving development.

A must read article IMO. Tesla is beginning to see a backlash.

"Why does the company charge US $12,000 for a so-called “full self-driving” capability that is utterly reliant on its customers’ data? How much control do drivers have over data extracted from their daily journeys? And what happens when other entities, from companies to the government, seek access to it? These are the themes for our third story."

Cant wait for the 3rd story!🥳

California DMV accuses Tesla of deceptive practices in marketing Autopilot and Full Self-Driving options​


KEY POINTS
  • In a pair of July 28 filings with California’s Office of Administrative Hearings, an official and lawyers for the DMV wrote that Tesla’s “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving” marketing suggest the cars are capable of operating autonomously, when in fact they can’t.
  • In a worst-case scenario, the company could temporarily lose the licenses which allow it to operate as a vehicle manufacturer and auto dealer in California.
  • Tesla has fifteen days to respond to the accusations before the administrative court, otherwise the DMV will take a default decision.

A Robocar Specialist Gives Tesla ‘Full Self-Drive’ An ‘F’​

"I have great respect and admiration for Elon Musk, so sorry to say this but ... it's terrible. I mean really bad. After all those videos I didn't expect a lot, but I expected more than this. My first drive home after activating it was frightening. You're going to see the second loop I did, one around Apple'sAAPL -0.1% Headquarters in Cupertino California. I've now driven this loop a dozen times with the system on, and each drive is different, with a different pattern of errors, several of them serious."

This US investment house has made tens of millions from Brainchip. Guess which other ASX share it’s backing​

Brainchip and LDA Capital

According to the AFR, Branchip’s financing arrangement with LDA Capital allows it to access between $20 million to $45 million across a one-year period. This arrangement reportedly started in August 2020.

In return, LDA Capital is paid fees and provided 100 million options, leading it to bank tens of millions of dollars, the AFR reported.

LDA Capital decided to exercise 75 million options in January 2021. Half were exercised at an issue price of 15 cents a share and the other half at 20 cents per share.

The AFR also noted Brainchip had requested an extension to draw the minimum amount under the facility, enabling it to access a further $35 million.

Would that be the ridiculously inequitable and (real world) damaging leverage that instos allow shorters in order to financially bully anyone who has assumed risk in order to help create something worthwhile that they can't have because they are evil and would crumble to dust if they even touched it.
That is appalling. Do they have any integrity?
It IS a proven business model, in fact a ridiculously successful one.

So... let me get this right. They are saying don't invest in anything (as all investing involves risk) and it will put us (instos/shorters) completely out of business as there will be no one to parasitise.
What a great business model that is.

BrainChip is the AArdvark of the ARM partnership programme.

https://www.arm.com/partners/catalog/results#f:Industry=[Artificial Intelligence]

I know this has been remarked upon before, but I think it bears repeating. When any single category is selected, BrainChip is at the top of the list in the majority of cases, and this is not an alphabetical phenomenon. This means that any person searching through the ARM Partners for most of those categories will see listed BrainChip first up.

In fact, you have to get down to Edge Gateway to shake BrainChip off.

So using the standard 1% baseline, that's 10's of billions Google/Akida devices.

But are Google contemplating outside partnerships?

So if Google were to incorporate Akida IP in their transformational partnerships, we could be in more than 20% of trillions of Google AI/ML devices.

Nice to see ARM and Google are on speaking terms! Wonder if anyone at Google has thought to search ARM's partnership lists for available AI/ML tech?

I had a little play myself. Ticked AI in Industrial and Technologies and then ARM IP. BRN topped the list in Cortex-M but unsighted in Cortex-A and Cortex-R. Same of IoT in Industrial and Technologies. So we can start ruling things maybe in and definitely out (A & R)

LDA Capital is the go-to financier for a handful of speculative ASX plays, and its model is now being embraced by local funds.

sorry I could read this article for short, then there is a stop and you must pay to read the whole article.

It really impresses on me the size of the ecosystem developing around tingML, and now neuromorphic computing.

As an example of this, the tinyML organisation that started in 2018/2019 and has attracted many heavyweights over the last few years, with Microsoft being the latest. Brainchip remains a key sponsor, with other sponsors including Tensorflow, Synaptics, Sony, Samsung, Renesas, Qualcomm, Prophesee, Plumerai, Intel, Infineon, Edge Impulse and ARM.

TinyML and Neuromorphic are becoming closely entwined. In fact tinyML are running an event on the 29th September for all members ( can guarantee many from the above organisations will be attending ) called :

tinyML Neuromorphic Engineering Forum​


tinyML is a fast-growing initiative around low-power machine-learning technologies for edge devices. The scope of tinyML naturally aligns with the field of neuromorphic engineering, whose purpose is to replicate and exploit the way biological systems sense and process information within constrained resources.
In order to build on these synergies, we are excited to announce the first tinyML Forum on Neuromorphic Engineering. During this event, key experts from academia and industry will introduce the main trends in neuromorphic hardware, algorithms, sensors, systems, and applications.


Among the speakers are our own Anil Mankar, Christoph POsch, CTO of Propesee and Yulia Sandamirskaya from Intel Labs.

Combining Neuromorphic Design Principles with Modern Machine Learning Algorithms​

Anil MANKAR, Chief Development Officer, BrainChip
Abstract (English)
Neuromorphic computing takes inspiration from the structure and function of neural systems and seeks to replicate the energy efficiency, tolerance to noise, representational power, and learning plasticity these systems possess. Current machine learning (ML) algorithms, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are capable of state-of-the-art performance in many computer vision applications such as object classification, detection, and segmentation. In this talk, we discuss how our neuromorphic design architecture, Akida, brings these ML algorithms into the neuromorphic computing domain by executing them as spiking neural networks (SNNs). We highlight how hardware design choices such as the event-based computing paradigm, low-bit width precision computation, the co-location of processing and memory, distributed computation, and support for efficient, on-chip learning algorithms enable low-power, high-performance ML execution at the edge. Finally, we discuss how this architecture supports next generation SNN algorithms such as binarized CNNs and algorithms that efficiently utilize temporal information to increase accuracy.


Sensors​

Neuromorphic Event-based Vision​

Christoph POSCH, CTO, PROPHESEE
Abstract (English)
Neuromorphic Event-based (EB) vision is an emerging paradigm of acquisition and processing of visual information that takes inspiration from the functioning of the human vision system, trying to recreate its visual information acquisition and processing operations on VLSI silicon chips. In contrast to conventional image sensors, EB sensors do not use one common sampling rate (=frame rate) for all pixels, but each pixel defines the timing of its own sampling points in response to its visual input by reacting to changes of the amount of incident light. The highly efficient way of acquiring sparse data, the high temporal resolution and the robustness to uncontrolled lighting conditions are characteristics of the event sensing process that make EB vision attractive for numerous applications in industrial, surveillance, IoT, AR/VR, automotive. This short presentation will give an introduction to EB sensing technology and highlight a few exemplary use cases.


So over the last few years I believe we have transformed in the eyes of the tech savvy investing community from " will neuromorphic computing actually even work from a commercial perspective, and even if i does, surely there are limited applications " to a recognition that tinyMl and neuromorphic compute will become "ubiquitous" in our lives with endless applications.
For Brainchip investors, the addressable market is forming beyond our wildest dreams, now it's a matter of our market share.
From what I can see, Brainchip is front and center, and it's going to acquire a fair piece of the action.

It really is very good to be a shareholder !

Good morning Brainchip supporters,

I can confirm that I have followed up on my effort to get an update on how things have been progressing with the Akida 2000 development, over say, the last 10/12 months.

The matter is highly sensitive, how do I know this ?

Having sought some (new) information from the "most knowledgeable staff member" nothing has been forthcoming, which I totally respect, and that is our answer in a nutshell, all progress is highly confidential.

An update may appear, but not at this point in time, it purely indicates that very important things are at play.

We all know that it's a long runway now, so much more patience is required, and until some other company knocks us off our perch, well, we
remain the NUMBER 1 PLAYER WORLDWIDE IN THIS SPACE...get used to it, it feels great being a shareholder (stolen phrase).

Love Brainchip...Tech x
