Kinda....more showing my parents age hahaShowing your age now
This tech was used in Decathlons in China since at least 2021.A while ago, I also mentioned a system here during a business trip to Japan. When I visited a bakery, the checkout system recognized each pastry and assigned the price accordingly. The name of the system was funny too… something with “Brain.” I’ll need to check my history to find it.
Got it

I agree with that. But the 9001 is just a bonus and nice to have, so that it goes faster with other ISOs (as option in e.g. Chp. 8), as this proof has already been provided.If you are talking about quality assurance, as in ISO 9001 and the likes, ISO certification is about the process only and can be achieved in a few months. I know first hand after developing several of them by myself (for telecommunication companies) and from being an accredited internal and external auditor for more than a decade.
Today, numerous articles on some of the promising future technologies Mercedes-Benz is exploring were published online, after the carmaker had recently invited journalists to its Future Technologies Lab in Sindelfingen.
And of course - you guessed it - neuromorphic computing was one of them.
(I also find solar coating another interesting concept).
There was also a press release by MB itself:

Neuromorphic Computer soll Energiebedarf einschränken
Zukünftige Fahrzeuge werden mehr Funktionen wie autonomes Fahren bieten, was den Energiebedarf steigert. Mercedes-Benz setzt auf Neuromorphic Computing, um KI effizienter zu machen und den Energieverbrauch um bis zu 90 % zu senken.mbpassion.de
Playmobil-Männchen im Einsatz…

German magazine auto, motor und sport published both an online article and a video on MB & neuromorphic computing earlier today (both in German) that literally confirm what I’ve been suspecting: that Mercedes-Benz is nowhere near to implementing neuromorphic technology at scale into their serial cars…

Neue KI-Chips von Mercedes für mehr Reichweite
Mercedes forscht an neuromorphen KI-Chips, die den Energiehunger künstlicher Intelligenz in der Elektronik fürs autonome Fahren eindämmen sollen. Aktuell würde ein Level-4-System nämlich die Reichweite eines E-Autos um bis zu 30 Prozent verringern. Wie die Technik funktioniert und was...www.auto-motor-und-sport.de
“Der Weg in die Serie ist noch weit.” - “It’s still a long way to serial cars”.
“Bis neuromorphe Chips ihren Weg ins Auto finden, wird es wohl noch einige Jahre dauern.” - “It’ll probably take a few years / It looks as if it will still take a few years until neuromorphic chips will find their way into (serial) cars.”

Mercedes forscht an neuer KI-Technik für autonome E-Autos
Um den Energiehunger von KI-Systemen zu stillen forscht Mercedes an neuromorpher Hardware, mit der autonomes Fahren effizienter werden soll.www.auto-motor-und-sport.de
“Diese Technologie steht jedoch noch am Anfang und erfordert umfangreiche Tests und Zertifizierungen, bevor sie in Autos eingesetzt werden kann.”
“However, this technology is still in its infancy and requires extensive testing and certification before it can be used in cars.”
Something similar is said in the video itself around the 5 min mark.
Other articles are behind a paywall, but maybe one of you happens to be a subscriber and could check out whether there are any additional snippets of interest worth sharing?

My guess is that the next Mercedes-Benz LinkedIn post regarding NC will give us some more details about the research collaboration with HKA (Hochschule Karlsruhe) on neuromorphic cameras. Or it might be a post announcing the collaboration between Mercedes and Neurobus that I had spotted on Nov 12 (https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-ongoing.1/post-441454).
Just because I visited this bakery 2023/2024, doesn’t mean they didn’t used it at least since 2015 in japan. Do you really believe Chinese can develop something by themselves? I literally see always Chinese tourists in exhibitions with expensive camera equipment taking photos of details of the interior and exterior of several carsThis tech was used in Decathlons in China since at least 2021.
Could be us, but yeah, nah.
The Mercedes connection shows just how long it takes to go from engagement to deals in 'new frontier' industries.Here are two more articles by journalists who attended MB’s recent Future Technologies Lab Open House. Both describe NC as a potential solution to drastically cut the energy consumption of SAE Level 4 autonomous functions and quote Mercedes-Benz engineers as saying they were expecting such neuromorphic hardware to become available in the 2030s…
Yup, you read that right.

The exact same article can be found on the Handelsblatt website as well:

Also note that Markus Schäfer calls the MB Future Technologies Lab their early-tech kitchen - in my opinion that’s yet another hint that we won’t be seeing the visionary ideas cooked up there implemented in any serial cars about to be released…

Are they using Akida ? @Frangipani
Yeh you'd hope that it's something, because if not, it again shows the complete lack of transparency and consistency with the company.Nice, is that the South Korean connection ? 3 models, that sounds very much like AKIDA -E, AKIDA-S, and AKIDA-P
"On-Device without the internet" (sounds like a quote from my mate himself...Peter}
Gauss is multimodal............which we have been since 2020 (from memory)
Able to perform all 5 modals of human sensory.....that being, Vision, Hearing, Feeling, Tasting and Smelling.
Here's a fair question for all shareholders to ponder over, why is our Top-20 now full of Institutions, apart from ex staff and a few
public true believers ?
Because the element of expectation is nearing.
Final question, why hasn't Sean delivered his Investor Update after the release of the 3rd quarter with Tony pumping him with
questions.....I haven't actually asked Tony yet, but consistency is paramount.....Sean, what's the hold up ?
Cheers and goodnight from the Far North of Kiwiland.......Tech![]()
Yes Mercedes (and Valeo for that matter) have put their eggs in the SDV basket. One of the advantages they cite is the ability to do over-the-air updates. I think this leaves the door open for the adoption of Akida2/TENNs, particularly while the development of the tech is ongoing.The Mercedes connection shows just how long it takes to go from engagement to deals in 'new frontier' industries.
Merc is likely to be way longer than most but all the experts were way to short on their 'Edge' adoption timeframes.
Even BRN with its industry experienced staff got it wrong.
The tide seems to coming in for the Edge and 2025 should finally see it arrive.
Once we get our 1st deal over the line it's game on.

I'm as confused as the next person. When we first learnt of TENNs, it was shown as part of the Akida2 silicon SoC IP, ie, hardware.
Now Tony Lewis refers to working on the "TENNs model".
There has been the speculation (mostly on my part) that it could be used as software to preform AI functions, ie, as AI software to run on a CPU/GPU/MPU/MCU processor.
Another alternative is that Tony has used the term "model" in its common usage, rather than its specialized AI meaning, so the job would be working on improving/developing the hardware/architecture of TENNs. This is improbable as the job is for ML experts, not hardware experts.
So is he talking about a model for use with a TENNs processor, or is TENNs a model simpliciter?
Given that we have been told of TENNs working alone (without Akida2), I'm going for TENNs as an AI processor, and the job is developing models for the TENNs AI processor.
