BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Fullmoonfever]

Does anyone know how long Mercedes has been looking at Brainchip? I am not sure if akida will be in this version of MBUX. Though I am sure it will be in future versions...maybe 2024?

Educated guess could be since around 2020 or poss little earlier imo.

Don't know of too many legit neuromorphic players then.

We know the Vision AVTR was the prior concept to the Vision EQXX and the AVTR was introduced to the world at the CES 2020.

We know that the EQXX was the next so called concept though it's not actually a concept per se in MB eyes as further below article.

From their press release snip below for the AVTR at the time which is also attached.

So, I'm not saying Akida is in this latest iteration of the MBUX, however it can't be entirely discounted as yet as 2 odd years of testing and an integration into the EQXX indicates quite possibly ready.

The one hole for me is the lack of contract Ann with BRN or fanfare if using us. Only sidestep I possibly see with that is a licence via someone like ARM or MC etc so no Ann.

How Mercedes Built the Vision EQXX's Voice Assistant with Empathy and Emotion | Auto Futures

Despite being revealed on 4 January, the Mercedes Vision EQXX will likely prove to be one of the most exciting concept cars of 2022. The German brand

There is, of course, one large elephant in the room. The Vision EQXX is a concept car – and isn’t slated for production.

So, is has this all been an academic exercise with no bearing on reality? Not quite.

“The Vision EQXX is a new technology blueprint for series production in many ways,” says Schanz.

“We started some years back with integrating AI in our MBUX System (e.g. predicting calls or commuting routes). We continuously will improve the MBUX system, especially the MBUX Voice Assistant, by integrating the latest AI and machine-learning technologies and bringing the UX to the next level.”

It’s better then to think of the Vision EQXX as a rolling testbed for Mercedes’ future cars and, with the German giant rolling out electric cars with increasing regularity, you can expect to see more drivers chatting away to their voice assistants in the years to come.

Thanks FF, a wealth of polite wisdom as always. TasTroy posted the following on another site and says it is from the latest MB SUV user guide. The operation of the driver camera, assessing facial characteristics and positioning without saving data and withou internet connection seems very advanced. Does anyone here believe Snapdragon can achieve this without AKIDA tech?

Ella does.

Does have a certain AKIDA feel about it but do wish they would just say it on their Home Page with neon lights and dancing poodles.
The Toy size ones in black wearing orange Tutu’s and holding little orange kites.

I think him sharing Brainchip's linkedIn post of Rob Telsons talk is enough of a dancing poodle for me.

If the Iceberg was still around, I think we would definitely be adding Motherson to under the surface.

Hi @Bigfella195
I tried having a read of the document @TasTroy kindly posted but decided after reading that the camera referred to here is so prone to overheating that they actually have instructions in the document for how to handle the issue which involves basically turning it off until it cools down. As the original and continuing reason why I found AKIDA technology so compelling was the virtual absence of heat in my technophobe way dismissed this camera as old school brute force technology without a big enough fan.

If I read and understood what they were saying well enough even the ambient temperature (in Germany in summer) could be sufficient to cause over heating. But as I say I am not within a bulls roar of the mighty @Diogenese

So put what I say on this on ice until he pronounces guilt or innocence.

My opinion only DYOR

PS: When I attended the demo in Sydney after the AGM by Nviso they had been using a Nvidia Jetson to try and run their Apps at 10 frames per second and it was running very hot but still doing sort of what Nviso was trying to do along similar lines to the above camera.

Pentagon vision for synchronized forces hinges on digital engineering

Under JADC2, the Pentagon is working to connect sensors from the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Space Force into a single network.

www.c4isrnet.com

Under the Joint All-Domain Command and Control project, the Pentagon is working to connect sensors from all of the military services — Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Space Force — into a single network. JADC2 will replace the separate, incompatible tactical networks that each of these entities normally maintain, according to the Congressional Research Service.

The Department of Defense anticipates that such a tactical network will be needed to connect military ground personnel, ships, aircraft, and satellites into a single, cyber-secure fighting unit. The JADC2 network would enable data sharing between hundreds or thousands of sensors simultaneously even in a chaotic battle environment. Automated redundancy will be built in: If one sensor temporarily loses sight of the target, other sensors will be able to cover it. The ambition and complexity of this project has led some analysts to express doubt that the necessary technology is available and can be made to work in these conditions.

@Bravo got old mate @uiux pretty excited about that too a couple of months ago

Was when everyone was going through that peculiar wet spot phase

would love a price sensitive ann or 2 to come out, i know im dreaming, but it really would be nice, just to really bed in this share price at worse. love a trading halt first also, just to make the shorters sweat and panic.... dreaming again. push on we do! and have trust in the co... imo...

I recommend looking back at old posts in forgotten threads via specific word searches

Some recent dots have renewed relevance when related back to older posts

@uiux and @Fact Finder among others have delivered some gems this year - like this one I just found

BrainChip + Riverside Research

Perhaps, but really what we are seeing so far is testing or pilot schemes to assess if AKIDA is worth integrating, or perhaps worthy of new technology development. It's a catch 22 though - the more significant a technological shift that AKIDA represents, the less likely we are to hear about it...

This one only goes back a couple of months but I am expecting some revenue raising from our new VP of sales.

Mr. Stevens was most recently Global Vice President of Sales for Syntiant Corporation, a leading edge AI semiconductor provider, where he built a world-wide sales team and drove revenue growth with tier-1 key accounts. He has also held executive sales positions at Centercode, Lantronix, Mindspeed Technologies, and Texas Instruments. An electrical engineer by training, Stevens is intimate with edge AI semiconductor technology, its ecosystem, and the requirements to accelerate adoption and sales.

“I have tracked BrainChip’s progress closely, as I’ve been selling into the same edge AI market. I am thrilled to take this sales leadership role with confidence as AkidaTM is uniquely superior and positioned to be the de facto standard for edge AI semiconductor IP”, said Stevens. “With use-case, market, and customer targeting, I’m certain I will contribute to further ecosystem penetration and accelerated sales”.

Go you good thing

Qualcomm are long on analog NNs.

By way of example:
WO2022192463A1 ANALOG ADDERS FOR MULTI-BIT MAC ARRAYS IN RECONFIGURABLE ANALOG BASED NEURAL NETWORKS
Priority: 20210310

[0001] Neural networks are increasingly being used in a variety of computing devices. Power efficiency of these neural networks is an important aspect of neural network implementations in computing devices. Digital computations in neural network implementations proves to be inefficient for many applications. Analog neural networks are implemented as more power efficient alternatives. However, performance improvements have been demonstrated for analog binary neural networks, while analog multi-bit neural networks suffer from computational performance bottle necks when executing analog calculations and lack flexibility for calculations using varying bit width inputs.

1. A multi-bit multiplier-accumulator (MAC), comprising an analog adder having a first adder capacitor, wherein the first adder capacitor is configured to add a plurality of single-bit MAC outputs by: receiving the plurality of single-bit MAC outputs from a plurality of single-bit MACs; and storing the plurality of single-bit MAC outputs; and wherein the analog adder is configured to output a multi-bit MAC output based on addition of the stored plurality of single-bit MAC outputs.

If you consider the written statements by Nviso, Prophesee, ISL, Socionext, MegaChips, Edge Impulse, Tata, DELL, NaNose, Biotome, Mercedes Benz etc; regarding AKIDA first generation technology and add in the following ASX price sensitive CEO Sean Hehir declaration:

“When I started to evaluate joining BrainChip I started with the technology. Being a Silicon Valley based executive I had easy access to some of the world’s best technical minds who I engaged to evaluate the core technology. The overwhelming feedback was the technology is visionary in its design, unparalleled in flexibility, and transformative in performance”

As a result I personally see no reason to doubt whatsoever as the revolutionary 3 to 5 year technology lead is beyond doubt so it is purely a question of logic and the process of elimination.

AKIDA is beyond cutting edge.

It is not Chinese, Russian, Korean, or Middle Eastern technology and meets all the necessary security thresholds required of a company to work at the most secure levels on US cyber, defence and space projects.

The only other possible players are Intel and IBM but they are both inferior technology research projects.

AKIDA is real, it is IP, it is agnostic to process and sensor, it is scalable beyond present imagining and is already well entrench with NASA and US Defence.

My opinion only but AKIDA can be the only choice but DYOR

Happy 71st to The Doctor Who Drank Infectious Broth, Gave Himself an Ulcer, and Solved a Medical Mystery!​

Success Story
This Friday is H.Pylori's archenemy, and my dad, Dr. Barry Marshall's 71st birthday.
In 1984, Dr. Marshall took some H. pylori from the gut of an ailing patient, stirred it into a broth, and drank it. As the days passed, he developed gastritis, the precursor to an ulcer: He started vomiting, his breath began to stink, and he felt sick and exhausted. Back in the lab, he biopsied his own gut, culturing H. pylori and proving unequivocally that bacteria were the underlying cause of ulcers.
I would love to hear your success stories of how the discovery of H.Pylori has helped you and your loved ones.
I plan to share this thread with my father for his birthday over the weekend. I swear it's not because I forgot to get him a present! If you're wondering, I got him an LED halloween face mask.

Nice to see that Prof Barry Marshall is still working and continuing on with valuable research rather than retiring

I no longer let such sites impress me, we have enough of them here in Germany, e.g. Aktiencheck (https://www.aktiencheck.de/news/Art...e_hat_man_kurzer_Zeit_nicht_erwartet-14903226) , it's always about buying, holding and selling. They calculate the whole thing mainly according to the current course lines. As such, opinions are constantly changing.
I deliberately never put them in here because they don't really mean anything

They are produced purely by algorithms. No one looks at that.

Excellent post FF.

I just noticed the Edge Impulse Imagine presentation that was on You Tube, our Brainchip staff were great!

It's really pleasing to see ALL of our key staff have the opportunity to present, we get to see their individual confidence, their knowledge displayed in an environment that not all staff would be comfortable in.

I then re-listened to Sean in the interview 5 months ago with stocks down yonder, intersect a company who is about to embark on their next "design cycle", the timing is critical, but it's out of our control, then it's the 1 to 2 or even 3 years to get the/a product into the commercial realm.

I honestly have no idea how this 4C result will play out next week, but in some ways, it's still short-term thinking, we are growing at a speed that isn't going to be determined by short sellers, all of 2023 and all of 2024....then it's game on in my opinion.

Has any other company closed the gap since 2020?

Will Quantum Computing start to really gain speed, will entanglement start to present itself in more and more published papers or will our brilliant company finally be recognized as the leading light for the next decade and beyond, I think not, technology continues to evolve at an alarming speed, I personally feel that light (optronics) will be the next major step forward in human understanding of our existence, or our place in what we all believe to be reality.

Peter always believed AGI was about 10 years off at a minimum, maybe I can be corrected on that, but that's what I remember him mentioning a while back.

All the press that we read; I have come to the conclusion that there's a lot of wolves in sheep's clothing....so many companies seem to love jumping on the bandwagon by describing themselves as AI companies, or research companies making out like their latest chip has already been commercialized for the masses.... talk about Brainchip being all smoke and mirrors, we are the leaders in this space, that's a fact!

Let's just see what the next 24 months produce, I remain extremely positive in continuing to hold Brainchip shares.

Cheers for now......Tech
