BRN Discussion Ongoing

[DingoBorat]

I hope that someday someone writes a story about the journey we are all on we are all here be it from different places or different times or different perspectives but we are all here. We wait some are ok with it
Some frustrated with it and some so impatient disrespectful and just rude beyond belief.
There’s a story to be told
And it’s a game of poker in a way
How many have thrown in there hand
Or bought back in to just crash and burn.
There will come a time when like most Scares the pain fades and all that is left is a faint mark
Just enough to remember
How many people have come here with good intentions or not.
Investors alike we wait our turn.
Every day is a day closer to the edge
The smell of fresh air rising up from the far edge you can almost taste it feel it or is it just a dream.

Are you sure that's fresh air rising up mate? ..

Could be the CyberNeuro-RT now live and available

You'd like to think if selling it, that they will need to be sourcing the 2 "neuromorphic offerings" via direct eg BRN & Intel, via their own licence or via an existing licensee eg Megachips or Renesas?

Qualcomm’s Boom Highlights AI Shift To The Edge​

Contributor

R. Scott Raynovich is the Founder and Chief Analyst at Futuriom.com


May 29, 2024,03:10pm EDT

A year ago, Qualcomm was not a well-embraced tech stock. In fact, as recently as last October, the company’s shares were dabbling with a 52-week low. The long-time maker of mobile technology and holder of valuable intellectual property was mired in a slump, weighed down by slow growth in China, as well as poor PC and smartphone markets.

Fast-forward to now. There’s this magic called AI. In just six months, Qualcomm shares have gone from a 52-week low to an all-time high on the market’s realization that it has the components and technology to play in the AI market, as devices such as smartphones and PCs become key to delivering AI inferencing—where the output of AI models are delivered to customers on devices. This is what many in the technology industries refer to the “edge”—devices connected to infrastructure.

The launch of Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon X series of chips, which targets AI inferencing, has coalesced nicely with turnarounds in the PC and device markets to give Qualcomm this boost. Qualcomm has also made a series of announcements with key partners such as Microsoft who are adopting its technology for AI processing on consumer devices.

A photo taken on November 23, 2023 shows the logo of the ChatGPT application developed by US ... [+]

Enthusiasm for the AI Edge​

The Qualcomm example shows how the business media and Wall St. have started picking up on the idea that AI requirements are perhaps more broad than just delivering large language models (LLMs) and chatbots from the cloud. There’s edge AI, private enterprise AI, and vertical AI as well.

The thirst for computing to fuel AI extends to the billions of devices around the world, ranging from cars to cameras, often referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT). Anything connected to infrastructure or network will need more processing power and connectivity to run AI models.

Qualcomm shares recently hit a new high on enthusiasm for edge AI.


What does this mean about AI infrastructure at large? Our recent research and discussions with technology builders say the AI infrastrucuture discussion is about to morph. I think that over the next few years we’ll be talking less about LLMs and chatbots and more about vertically focused AI apps and infrastructure—and private AI for enterprise.


Chatbots are an appealing mass market, but they only address one segment—consumer information. The closest analog is the search market, where Google holds between an 80%-90% share, raking in about $80 billion in quarterly revenue. The current market size for search is estimated to be about $400 billion. The enterprise and industrial technology infrastructure markets represent hundreds of billions more.

The AI market will extend well beyond consumer information and chatbots. It also has diverse applications in data analytics, robotics, healthcare, and finance—to only name a few. Many of these more specific vertical markets may not even need LLMs at all but more specific AI technologies that could include small language models (SLMs) or other custom-designed AI processing software. They’ll have to deliver the results—AI inferencing—across myriad hardware platforms ranging from cars to medical devices.

“We have only scratched the surface of AI as it moves out into verticals, private AI, edge, and distributed cloud. There's more to AI than LLMs and SLMs, and vertical/domain-specific models will dominate the new deployments outside of the large cloud players,” Mike Dvorkin, a cofounder and CTO of cloud networking company Hedgehog, told me in a recent interview. “The opportunity is immense, and it will require new thinking about infrastructure and how it's consumed."

AI To Drive Private AI and Hybrid Infrastructure​

If Dvorkin, a former distinguished engineer at Cisco, is right—the AI edge infrastructure market will be gigantic.
This conversation has popped up in more discussions I’ve witnessed recently, where some technologists have estimated the AI market could flip from 80% modeling and 20% inferencing to the reverse. In addition, CIOs I’ve listened to recently have pointed out that the private AI model will be much more useful in specific industries such as healthcare and finance, where enterprise customers may want to own as much of their own data and models as possible.

For this reason, the AI wave will drive more diverse hybrid and multicloud architectures—including private clouds—as the needs for data, analytics and connectivity spread across multiple infrastructures.
“We have a hybrid cloud model,” said George Maddalino, the CTO of Mastercard, at a recent tech event hosted by the Economist in New York. “We have workloads on prem, workloads on hyperscaler. You can see us traversing from a banks datacenter across a hypserscaler cloud to a retailer in the cloud. By default we end up in an environment that's multicloud.”
Nizar Trigui, CTO with GXO Logistics, also pointed to the idea that AI application connectivity to data will be pervasive, for any location.
“Most of us are going through some kind of digital transformation,” said Trigui. "How do we create more value for the customers? We are creating value out of data in 1,000 warehouses around the world, digitally connected.”

The biggest takeaway from Qualcomm’s recent rise is the enthusiasm for AI everywhere—this means processing and inferencing data wherever it lives. This endeavor will not be limited to infrastructure or models owned exclusively by the hyperscalers, it will spread far and wide across enterprise, edge, and IoT.

.

Why would Loihi scale better than Akida? Akida being available as IP puts it in a scaling league of its own don’t you think? The node offerings mean it can be embedded as small as two nodes or as large as 256 nodes. I don’t think BrainChip have ever left Akida in the Data Centre off the table either. Versatility is definitely a thing being able to offer up both hardware and software versions of both TENNs and Akida - something that I’m pretty sure Loihi is not capable of. TENNs makes our product line extremely agile imo.

Not sure if this has anything to do with us but is evidence of further interest in utilising facial recognition for vehicle access.

Ford Motor patent filing for facial recognition vehicle entry system published | Biometric Update

The innovative technology utilizes both biometric and a non-biometric fallback authentication method to allow access to a vehicle.

Ford Motor patent filing for facial recognition vehicle entry system published​

May 29, 2024, 5:52 pm EDT | Abhishek Jadhav
CATEGORIES Access Control | Biometrics News | Facial Recognition

A patent filing from the Ford Motor Company for a facial recognition vehicle entry system has been published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Organization. This technology utilizes both biometric and a non-biometric fallback authentication method to allow access to a vehicle.


The system described in the patent application is designed to integrate dual authentication modes, ensuring that only authorized individuals can gain access to the vehicle. The system includes various components, including image sensors, lockout devices, and a controller for the authentication process.
During primary authentication based on face biometrics, the system captures a real-time image of the person attempting to access the vehicle. The captured image is then analyzed to determine if it matches any stored facial patterns associated with authorized users. If a match is found, the controller grants access to the vehicle by commanding the lockout device to unlock.
If the primary biometric authentication fails and the captured image doesn’t match any stored facial patterns, the system prompts for secondary authentication. It then captures a second image and analyzes it for a non-biometric code. The system offers adjustable security levels based on the complexity of the secondary code. For instance, the code can be alphanumeric, gestures, or graphical depictions. The document depicts the use of gesture recognition to recognize a sequence of hand movements as an authentication method.
For activity logging, whenever a secondary user gains access using a secondary code, the system captures and stores an image of this event. This stored image enables the primary user to review and verify the activities and identities of those who accessed the vehicle.
“The invention may be practiced in any vehicle with exterior cameras that are tied to a vehicle controller with image processing capability. Facial recognition may be retained as the primary device-free authentication modality, while a secondary authentication option can reinstate some benefits associated with the use of keypad code entry,” the patent application explains.
Ford Global Technologies was awarded a patent for a facial recognition system to identify drivers and unlock car doors in 2022. The system could start the vehicle, monitor the health conditions of occupants, and even identify and assess the threat level of animals outside the vehicle.

I've been off line for a while. Just got out of hospital after major kidney surgery. The pain has been quite staggering to be honest.
Anyway, for a bit of therapy, I thought I'd take a quick look here, and it really has helped. The pain of the operation has paled into insignificance and is now a distant memory.

Not sure if this has anything to do with us but is evidence of further interest in utilising facial recognition for vehicle access.

Ford Motor patent filing for facial recognition vehicle entry system published​

A patent filing from the Ford Motor Company for a facial recognition vehicle entry system has been published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Organization. This technology utilizes both biometric and a non-biometric fallback authentication method to allow access to a vehicle.


The system described in the patent application is designed to integrate dual authentication modes, ensuring that only authorized individuals can gain access to the vehicle. The system includes various components, including image sensors, lockout devices, and a controller for the authentication process.
During primary authentication based on face biometrics, the system captures a real-time image of the person attempting to access the vehicle. The captured image is then analyzed to determine if it matches any stored facial patterns associated with authorized users. If a match is found, the controller grants access to the vehicle by commanding the lockout device to unlock.
If the primary biometric authentication fails and the captured image doesn’t match any stored facial patterns, the system prompts for secondary authentication. It then captures a second image and analyzes it for a non-biometric code. The system offers adjustable security levels based on the complexity of the secondary code. For instance, the code can be alphanumeric, gestures, or graphical depictions. The document depicts the use of gesture recognition to recognize a sequence of hand movements as an authentication method.
For activity logging, whenever a secondary user gains access using a secondary code, the system captures and stores an image of this event. This stored image enables the primary user to review and verify the activities and identities of those who accessed the vehicle.
“The invention may be practiced in any vehicle with exterior cameras that are tied to a vehicle controller with image processing capability. Facial recognition may be retained as the primary device-free authentication modality, while a secondary authentication option can reinstate some benefits associated with the use of keypad code entry,” the patent application explains.

US2024166165A1 FACIAL RECOGNITION ENTRY SYSTEM WITH SECONDARY AUTHENTICATION 20221121 Publication: US2024166165A1·2024-05-23

[0023] FIG. 2 shows authentication controller 16 in greater detail. A main processor 30 includes logic 31 which directs operation according to the processes described herein. A program block 32 performs facial recognition and/or gesture recognition by comparing captured images to prestored templates (biometric and nonbiometric).

It looks like Ford are using software to compare stored images with the camera output (processor 30; program block 32). There is no mention of NNs or AI.

Still that does not conclusively rule out using Akida simulation software, but it does not closely describe a NN application. But doing an old fashioned image comparison would use a lot of power. Wouldn't it be funny if the car recognizes the driver, but then has a flat battery from the effort.

TeNNs?

After all there is the hypothesis that Valeo and Mercedes could be using Akida simulation software ...

Could be the CyberNeuro-RT now live and available

You'd like to think if selling it, that they will need to be sourcing the 2 "neuromorphic offerings" via direct eg BRN & Intel, via their own licence or via an existing licensee eg Megachips or Renesas?
