BRN Discussion Ongoing

"If there is a market for the Akida 1500 chip, this could prove a faster way to market than the IP licence route: "The AKD 1500 chip is expected to be available soon"

Personally, I don't think the Company has changed strategy and are just testing the "recipe" as Rob put it, but it could be a bit of both?..

These customers would be very sizable and it seems a bit odd, that they would take chips, rather than have more control over the options of how many nodes etc?..

The early timing of the capital raise, does give weight, to the possibility of a production run of AKIDA1500 though..

I'm a bit back and forth on this one 🤔..

I'd prefer they stuck to the IP model..
If the chip run was for customers, wouldn't it be a straight up payment?..

If it's a case of "you put up the funds and run a large batch and if they work, we might buy them" scenario..
Then it seems like a bit of a high risk play..


On another thought..

A new IP licence, that we could probably lay money on, would be MegaChips, as their current licence only covers AKIDA1000.
I suspect these "customers" are keen to test the chips functionality and validate 1500 with their particular needs before signing onto Ip licencing. My guess is government contracts, hence use of GF. Defence! And not just USA. Possibly global defence contractors friendly with USA. Through Megachips. They are keen on flushing US market.
Just a hunch.

Good morning fellow brners, now can someone tell me the difference when someone states these words or someone states these words -

Aim to "commercialise"products

or

Aim to " launch" products

which represents 🗼(rocket ship ready for the button to be pressed ) which is it :)
'Aim to launch' means more to me - all of the commercialization steps are complete and we're ready to go to market with an actual product 🚀

Have been looking into Teksun's vast array of products.



(I pasted the telep driver monitoring but it's showing the fermenter)

(I pasted the edge AI camera but it's showing the fermenter again. LOL)

They are using Synaptics VS680.


Then after some searching came across spec sheets for AllCall S1 X & Noa Primo 4G. Teksun are the manufacturer of this brand of smartphones I have not heard of before.

Here it lists all the Teksun devices:

Akida would be suitable in many of their applications. Only a matter of time.

Makes complete sense. Huge re-rate if this is the case too, defence contracts can be lucrative and long lasting particularly as the tech develops into bigger and better offerings.
Makes me think though that if we're close to signing deals with USA plus perhaps allies defence then this might rule out any contracts with Chinese phone companies such as Huawei, Oppo, Vivo etc (which may be the case anyway ATM). If AKIDA proves to be as revolutionary as we suspect then Western nations will want to keep that advantage under wraps. IMHO

I was thinking the same thing about the ramifications of Akida IP in Chinese phones.

US adopts "zero trust" with commercial foundries for supply of advanced chips.

I think this was already mentioned in previous post but
"
GlobalFoundries is a semiconductor foundry that has trusted foundry status for the U.S. federal government and other countries1. It has contracts with DOD to provide secure chips for military systems. It has three trusted foundry sites in East Fishkill, NY; Burlington, VT; and Malta,

Apologies if this is common knowledge?





Megachips played a part in design of Akida1500

Thanks @Tothemoon24

I personally had not seen this nor read it being discussed. It is very significant news that MegaChips was involved with the backend design as they indicated they were looking to produce a COTS AKIDA chip for particular customers.

Peter van der Made said the market did not understand the significance of MegaChips and this is increasingly becoming an understatement.

MegaChips original press release with Brainchip listed automotive and industrial use.

Not if but when and I don’t mind if my when is smaller than yours @Diogenese it is after all when you use it that counts and it could be sooner than we thought.

My opinion only DYOR

Well this has to be for one of Megachips customers then.
In the announcement it said for specific customers.

Could the chips be for the Panasonic robot dog?

The latest MegaChips presentation mentions "Aim to launch products leveraging BrainChips' next generation edge based AI solutions".

Whereas Quadric is still at the commercialization stage.

Last year the President issued a decree banning the supply of advanced technology to China.

The document was discussed here and it is clear that the definition of artificial intelligence would cover AKIDA technology. So as that ban continues and has been strengthened by the USA having the EU ban the shipping of the technology needed to produce advanced chips to China it is in my opinion impossible for AKIDA to be used by Chinese companies for any purpose.

Being Science Fiction sealed AKIDA’s fate.

Fascinatingly Intuitive.
Morning Chippers,

Some may find the below article interesting, taken from Weekend Financial Review.

Cannot recall who , sorry, but a little while ago one of our sleuths put up a visual display of Brainchip internet traffic globaly. Alot of chatter was originating out of Vietnam if memory serves......

The second article , well thought I'd add my guess on where we should be pressently......

Not financial advice... may be more... DYOR.

😊.

Regards,
Esq.
