BRN Discussion Ongoing

One day someone will come across a LinkedIn like that actually means something..


Ok, heres one, and does anyone think there is anything to read in between the lines?

My best guess is that Alf was bored and he was waiting for an Uber out the front of a restaurant and he had to look immersed in something on his phone because he didn’t want to feel awkward and embarrassed in front of a group of ladies that were also waiting out the front of the restaurant and so he “liked“ Chris‘s post because it gave him something to do that would make him look not only authentic but busy and important and not to mention it provided him with an opportunity to do something supportive of a previous co-worker as well as signalling his respect for a mutual ecosystem partner. The end.😝

Yes, this is right, like the person who reply to my post saying that I was CHILDISH and STUPID and then DRUNK.
This person seemed an easy-to- explode person and he or she should take a little break and just don't write.
I whole heartedly agree.
OK, NOW you can leave and now I will ignore you. 😂😂😂😂

off topic

I know something like that myself, from the right-hand lane. We have a right-hand lane drive commandment here. Many ignorant people ignore this. The driver in the video does this very responsibly and properly.

Anyway, I was travelling at ~240 km/h. All of a sudden the car jerked a little because of the gust of wind and bang! the first vehicle banged past me. Then a ~second later followed by a second and the third. They were travelling well past 300, probably heading for 400.
All three had a sticker on the car so I recognised where they had been before. They came from the 24h Nürburgring race. Private individuals are also allowed to take part there. I mentioned the race track and Sabine Schmitz.
It happened so quickly that they disappeared on the horizon within a few seconds, even though I was already travelling very fast, at least to my understanding.

_____
By the way, I once went on holiday with an environmentally responsible girlfriend and her wish for a small 'economical' rent car with a piss-poor engine (Toyota Aygo). We were in a hurry to catch the ferry. That's why I was travelling at 155km/h. It literally sucked the tank dry, 35 litres per 100 kilometres!!! And that is exactly the reason why some want the speed limit introduce here. But no politician talks about it openly. The tiny engines literally pant like hummingbirds faster than 120Km/h.
As an engineer I'm still trying to 'get it' how a 1-litre engine gets 35 litres of fuel through the valves. A friend made fun of it. His too tiny company car consumed just ~40 litres per 100 kilometres. He is a salesman and always in a hurry.
For comparison, an extraordinary journey, I was travelling with four people + dog and a station (?) car. Packed to the rafters. Average speed over 1460km at ~150km/h. On arrival I looked at the fuel consumption, 6.4l per 100km. A BMW 2l diesel.

Those of you who have taken a closer look at the global neuromorphic research community will likely have come across the annual Telluride Neuromorphic Cognition Engineering Workshop, a three week project-based meeting in eponymous Telluride, a charming former Victorian mining town in the Rocky Mountain high country of southwestern Colorado. Nestled in a deep glacial valley, Telluride sits at an elevation of 8750 ft (2667 m) and is surrounded by majestic rugged peaks. Truly a scenic location for a workshop.

The National Science Foundation (NSF), which has continuously supported the Telluride Workshop since its beginnings in the 1990s, described it in a 2023 announcement as follows: It “will bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers from academia and industry, including engineers, computer scientists, neuroscientists, behavioral and cognitive scientists (…) The annual three-week hands-on, project-based meeting is organized around specific topic areas to explore organizing principles of neural cognition that can inspire implementation in artificial systems. Each topic area is guided by a group of experts who will provide tutorials, lectures and hands-on project guidance.”

The topic areas for the 2024 Telluride Neuromorphic Workshop are now online. As every year, the list of topic leaders and invited speakers includes the crème de la crème of neuromorphic researchers from all over the world. While no one from Brainchip has made the invited speakers’ list (at least not to date), I was extremely pleased to notice that Akida will be featured nevertheless! It has taken the academic neuromorphic community ages to take Brainchip seriously (cf my previous post on Open Neuromorphic: https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-ongoing.1/post-404235), but here we are, finally getting acknowledged alongside the usual suspects:

Some readers will now presumably shrug their shoulders and consider this mention of Brainchip in a workshop programme as being insignificant as opposed to those coveted commercial announcements. To me, however, the inclusion of Brainchip at Telluride marks a milestone.

Also keep in mind what NSF Program Director Soo-Siang Lim said about Telluride (see link above): “This workshop has a long and successful track-record of advancing and integrating our understanding of biological and artificial systems of learning. Many collaborations catalyzed by the workshop have led to significant technology innovations, and the training of future industry and academic leaders.”

I’d just love to know who of the four topic leaders and/or co-organisers had suggested to include Brainchip for their hands-on project “Processing space-based data using neuromorphic computing hardware” (and whether this was readily agreed on or not):

Was it one of the two colleagues from Western Sydney University’s International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS)? Gregory Cohen (who is responsible for Astrosite, WSU’s containerised neuromorphic inspired mobile telescope observatory as well as for the modification of the two neuromorphic cameras on the ISS as part of the USAFA Falcon Neuro project) or Alexandre Marcireau?

Or was it Gregor Lenz, who left Synsense in mid-2023 to co-found Neurobus (“At Neurobus we’re harnessing the power of neuromorphic computing to transform space technology”) and is also one of the co-founders of the Open Neuromorphic community? He was one of the few live viewers of Cristian Axenie’s January 15 online presentation on the TinyML Vision Zero San Jose Competition (where his TH Nürnberg team, utilising Akida for their event-based visual motion detection and tracking of pedestrians, had come runner-up), and asked a number of intriguing questions about Akida during the live broadcast.

Or was it possibly Jens Egholm Pedersen, the Danish doctoral student at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden’s largest technical university, who hosted said presentation by Cristian Axenie on the Open Neuromorphic YouTube channel and appeared to be genuinely impressed about Akida (and the Edge Impulse platform), too?

Oh, and last, but not least:
Our CTO Anthony M Lewis aka Tony Lewis has been to Telluride numerous times: the workshop website lists him as one of the early participants back in 1996 (when he was with UCLA’s Computer Science Department). Tony Lewis is subsequently listed as a guest speaker for the 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 workshops (in his then capacity as the founder of Iguana Robotics) - information on the participants between 2006 - 2009 as well as for the year 2011 is marked as “lost”. In 2019, Tony Lewis had once again been invited as either topic leader or guest speaker, but according to the website could not come.

So I guess there is a good chance we will see him return to Telluride one day, this time as CTO of Brainchip, catching up with a lot old friends and acquaintances, many of whom he also keeps in touch with via his extensive LinkedIn network, so they’d definitely know what he’s been up to.

As I said in another post six weeks ago:
Absolutely agree - Tony Lewis was an excellent choice as CTO, as he is so well connected and respected in the neuromorphic community!

Laurent Hili from ESA, who will be one of two interview partners in Brainchip’s latest “This is Our Mission” podcast (made available at 3 pm California time later today and hosted by our CTO Tony Lewis), is also the contact person for “Morpheus 2024 - ESA workshop on Edge AI and Neuromorphic Hardware Accelerator”, which will take place at ESTEC (European Space Research and Technology Centre) in Noordwijk, The Netherlands in May:

In case you - like me - were wondering what CSEM (the time-slot directly after Brainchip in Session 4 “SNN acceleration IP”) stands for: Centre Suisse d’Electronique et de Microtechnique, headquartered in Neuchâtel/Neuenburg, Switzerland. On their website, they state as their purpose: “We believe smart technological solutions are part of the answer to the complex environmental, economic, and social challenges we face. Working alongside academia and industry, we transfer game-changing innovations from lab to market and help our customers to develop impacting products and digital services that leverage our deep scientific, engineering and manufacturing expertise.”

Maybe CSEM’s SNN acceleration IP was the reason for Brainchip’s recent trademark registration in Switzerland?

A standard Google search on “Akida” came up with these four trademark registry applications in Switzerland, filed two days ago:

I subsequently checked the database of the Eidgenössisches Institut für Geistiges Eigentum (Swiss Federal Institute for Intellectual Property), which confirmed the filing of those trademark registry applications on January 29, 2024:

Learning to the Top 🕵‍♂️


So, the European Space Agency’s had make contact with Brainchip 4 years ago, and had been engaged ever since.

Say no more!

I'm dreaming of the new quantum phones, quantum computers, starlink satellites, med beds, the new quantum monetary system, the block chain voting system, free energy, border wall, hydrogen cars, beneficial AI that the military are using to bring down the global cabal.... I believe BRN is involved in it all. When you know, you know 😏

Leevon, I do believe I'm being beknownced along with you, and quite a few others IMHO.

So many possibilities, the intrigue, Oh, the joy, that is being offered here, is astounding, even in my diminishing thought processes and spiking moments, that still occur from time to time.

The future, is developing isn't it ?

Akida Ballista >>>>> Here's to the FUTURE ;)🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆 😉 <<<<<

Here's a question, probably for Diogenes (unless this is so obvious and I'm missing something soooo simple.)
Why is cooling an issue in space when for the most part it's close to absolute zero?

Holding onto what I've got

42 min mark,

Discussion around readiness for technology. TRL 1 to 9.

The levels for testing Brainchip has to go through just to be used in space means that is well beyond a concept or 'meme stock'

European Space Agency would have already invested hours of research before even thinking about the next practical use or testing steps, the fact we are even talking to them or NASA is huge, these two are not in the business to gamble on a chance.
