SENSING / CONDITIONING WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS AI
Intellisense Systems is to use neuromorphic AI technology from BrainChip to improve cognitive radio system on spacecraft and robotics.
Intellisense’s intelligent radio frequency (RF) system enable wireless devices and platforms to sense and learn the characteristics of the communications environment in real time, providing enhanced communication quality, reliability and security. By integrating BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic processor, Intellisense can deliver even more advanced, yet energy efficient, cognitive capabilities to its RF system solutions.
One such project is the development of a new Neuromorphic Enhanced Cognitive Radio (NECR) device to enable autonomous space operations on platforms constrained by size, weight and power (SWaP).
Intellisense’s NECR technology provides NASA numerous applications and can be used to enhance the robustness and reliability of space communication and networking, especially cognitive radio devices. Smart sensing algorithms will be implemented on neuromorphic computing hardware, including Akida, and then integrated with radio frequency modules as part of a Phase II prototype.

- BrainChip integrates Akida AI core with ARM Cortex-M85
- BrainChip tapes out its AI chip in 22nm FD SOI
“By integrating BrainChip’s Akida processor into our cognitive radio solutions, we will be able to provide our customers with an unparalleled level of performance, adaptability and reliability,” said Frank Willis, President and CEO of Intellisense.
“Intellisense provides advanced sensing and display solutions and we are thrilled to be partnering with them to deliver the next generation of cognitive radio capabilities,” said Sean Hehir, CEO of BrainChip. “Our Akida processor is uniquely suited to address the demanding requirements of cognitive radio applications and we look forward to continue partnering with Intellisense to deliver cutting-edge embedded processing with AI on-chip to their customers.”

The eeNews article refers to BrainChip's associations with Intellisense, Teksun, emotion3D, and AI Labs, as well as Akida gen 2, Global Foundries, ARM:
BrainChip Holdings Ltd, the first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI IP, saw the launch of its second-generation Akida™ processor IP platform and key partnerships with AI leaders on the first quarter of 2023.
The 2nd generation Akida technology platform is a hyper-efficient, yet powerful neural processing system designed for embedded Edge AI applications. The latest Akida platform adds efficient 8-bit processing to go with advanced capabilities, such as spatial-temporal domain convolutions and Vision Transformer (ViT) acceleration, for an unprecedented level of performance in sub-watt devices, taking them from perception toward cognition.
Other technology advancements made to BrainChip’s IP portfolio in 2023 include integration of its Akida processor family with the Arm® Cortex®-M85 processor, demonstrating the company’s commitment to developing cutting-edge AI systems that deliver exceptional performance and efficiency.
BrainChip also achieved tape-out of its AKD1500 reference design on GlobalFoundries’ 22nm fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) technology. This milestone is part of validating BrainChip’s IP across different processes and foundries, empowering partners with varied global manufacturing options.
As part of their commitment to improving functionality and options for partners, BrainChip entered several strategic partnerships to expand its partner ecosystem:
- Intellisense Systems chose BrainChip’s neuromorphic technology to improve the cognitive communication capabilities on size, weight, and power (SWaP) constrained platforms (such as spacecraft and robotics) for commercial and government markets.
- Their partnership with Teksun demonstrates and proliferates BrainChip’s technology through Teksun product development channels, impacting the next generation of intelligent vehicles, smart homes, medicine, and industrial IoT.
- BrainChip’s partnership with emotion3D enables an ultra-low-power working environment with on-chip learning to make driving safer and enable next-level user experience.
- Working with AI Labs Inc., both companies are collaborating on next-generation application development, leveraging the Minsky™ AI Engine in a cost-effective, compelling solution to real-world problems.
