Of course, whilst we Brainchip investors may view the world through our particular version of rose coloured glasses I think there are perhaps many reasons why our desired progress of both time to market and associated revenue is taking longer than many of us hoped for and expected.Hmmm yeah I wonder. Like what the risk is releasing a product like Akida inside, patent pending, that could potentially not be approved. Especially if it's to be ubiquitous. I see the patent pending sign on products, but I often think that's just a selling point for non disruptive technologies, or simple products. Worst case scenario would be a patent not granted and suddenly its open season on ripping off the technology and repackaging it. Obviously this is a complex area, but I wonder if megachips and others want to have their patents approved before marketing and active selling. It would explain why time to market and time to revenue is taking longer than expected.
I think TD plays games and randomly goes round liking certain posts. It’s something I’d probably do.
Science fiction anyone?

Not sure of the commercial benefits. I’m guessing Hossam is using Akida as he did for the Nanose device.

Feasibility study on the application of a spiking neural network in myoelectric control systems

In recent years, the effectiveness of a spiking neural network (SNN) for Electromyography (EMG) pattern recognition has been validated, but there is a lack of comprehensive consideration of the problems of heavy training burden, poor robustness, and high energy consumption in the application of actual myoelectric control systems. In order to explore the feasibility of the application of SNN in actual myoelectric control systems, this paper investigated an EMG pattern recognition scheme based on SNN. To alleviate the differences in EMG distribution caused by electrode shifts and individual differences, the adaptive threshold encoding was applied to gesture sample encoding. To improve the feature extraction ability of SNN, the leaky-integrate-and-fire (LIF) neuron that combines voltage–current effect was adopted as a spike neuron model. To balance recognition accuracy and power consumption, experiments were designed to determine encoding parameter and LIF neuron release threshold. By conducting the gesture recognition experiments considering different training test ratios, electrode shifts, and user independences on the nine-gesture high-density and low-density EMG datasets respectively, the advantages of the proposed SNN-based scheme have been verified. Compared with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), SNN can effectively reduce the number of repetitions in the training set, and its power consumption was reduced by 1–2 orders of magnitude. For the high-density and low-density EMG datasets, SNN improved the overall average accuracies by about (0.99 ~ 14.91%) under different training test ratios. For the high-density EMG dataset, the accuracy of SNN was improved by (0.94 ~ 13.76%) under electrode-shift condition and (3.81 ~ 18.95%) in user-independent case. The advantages of SNN in alleviating the user training burden, reducing power consumption, and improving robustness are of great significance for the implementation of user-friendly low-power myoelectric control systems.

Abstract
With increasing performance of deep learning, researchers have employed Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) for wireless communications. In particular, mechanisms for detecting Wi-Fi frames using DNNs demonstrate excellent performances in terms of detection accuracy. However, DNNs require significant amount of computation resources. Thus, if the DNN based mechanisms are used in mobile devices or low-end devices, their battery would be quickly depleted. Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), which are regarded as next generation of neural network, have advantages over DNNs: low energy consumption and limited computational complexity. Motivated by these advantages, in this paper, we propose a mechanism to detect a Wi-Fi frame using SNNs and show the feasibility of SNNs for Wi-Fi detection. The mechanism is composed of a preprocessing module for collecting an actual RF signal and an SNN module for detecting a Wi-Fi frame. The SNN module employs Leaky Integrate and Fire (LIF) neurons and Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity (STDP) learning rule. To reflect the features of an actual neuromorphic system, our SNN module considers memristive synaptic features such as nonlinear weight update. Experimental study demonstrates that the detection capabilities of the proposed mechanism are comparable to those of previous mechanisms using DNNs, CNNs and RNNs while consuming much less energy than the previous mechanism.

Another Chinese article addressing some concerns of SNN mentions Green artificial Intelligence which is a first I have heard of this term.
Last but not least, more special applications for SNNs also should be explored still. Though SNNs have been used widely in many fields, including the neuromorphic camera, HAR task, speech recognition, autonomous driving, etc., as aforementioned and the object detection (Kim et al., 2020; Zhou et al., 2020), object tracking (Luo et al., 2020), image segmentation (Patel et al., 2021), robotic (Stagsted et al., 2020; Dupeyroux et al., 2021), etc., where some remarkable studies have applied SNNs on recently, compared to ANNs, their real-world applications are still very limited. Considering the unique advantage, efficiency of SNNs, we think there is a great opportunity for applying SNNs in the Green Artificial Intelligence (GAI), which has become an important subfield of Artificial Intelligence and has notable practical value.
We believe many studies focusing on using SNNs for GAI will emerge soon.
It's obvious he is not interested in BRN one iota.
