The individual in sales, with whom I've exchanged e-mails recently, said they did offer a USB version at one point, but it "did not offer the right level of performance," so they don't offer it anymore.Interesting that the image of Intel Loihi appears in a USB form factor. Wasn’t aware Intel reduced Loihi down to this size. Last I checked it fit in a brief case
Didn’t Brainchip delay producing a USB version of Akida. Didn’t Brainchip also not tape out Akida 2.0.![]()
I agree with you. First of all, you are correct in stating that the car manufacturing is a dwindling industry. Especially now, considering the costs involved in producing vehicles.
MB stating that neuromorphic is at the infancy stage tells me, that they are working on technology that will be a game changer in the industry.
I don’t consider EV’s to be that game changer. There are currently arguments whether EV’s are good for the environment due to the fact that to produce the batteries is not very environmentally friendly.
So what could MB be working on besides EV’s with a luxury experience. To me it has to be driverless vehicles. Although, several companies are working on driverless vehicles, it has not been perfected. Google, Tesla and other companies have been working on driverless vehicles for years. What else would require extensive testing and certification?
Currently, I’m not hoping for an IP with a vehicle manufacturer. I believe it would be more beneficial for Brn to score an IP contract with a telecommunications company or a company involved with assistive aids such as: hearing aids, eye wear or technologies that get rid of eye wear, robotics, home appliances etc.
Brn are positioning themselves to play a part in every industry. Partnerships, although time consuming, are what will ensure our success in the near future, hopefully. As I have learnt, a lot of patience is required.
The AI industry is developing at such a fast pace atm, it is both scary and exciting.
Who was it that said:
“We live in exciting times”.
Just my opinion

Introduction to Neuromorphic Processing for Cybersecurity
The integration of neuromorphic processing into cybersecurity solutions has the potential to revolutionize the way threats are detected and mitigated. BrainChip Holdings Ltd, a company specializing in ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI, has announced its collaboration with Quantum Ventura to provide cybersecurity protection for WiFi access, home routers, small enterprise routers, and other network access devices. This partnership aims to leverage the Akida processor, BrainChip’s flagship product, to facilitate on-chip learning for deployment of network-specific attack detection.
The increasing need for cybersecurity solutions that can thwart attacks through otherwise unsecure devices connected to the network has driven the development of innovative technologies like Quantum Ventura’s CyberNeuro-RT (CNRT). This technology offering, developed in partnership with Lockheed Martin Co.’s MFC Division and Pennsylvania State University, utilizes BrainChip’s neuromorphic processing capabilities to provide managed cybersecurity support for edge devices that cannot rely on a central server to identify threats and attacks due to cost or power issues. The integration of Akida into CNRT enables the detection of threats across multiple devices that would otherwise be vulnerable to exploitation.
The Akida neural processor and AI IP can identify unknown repeating patterns in vast amounts of noisy data, making it an asset in cyberthreat detection. By learning what normal network traffic patterns look like, Akida can detect malware, attack signatures, and other types of malicious activity. Its unique ability to learn on-device in a secure fashion, without the need for cloud retraining, allows it to quickly adapt to emerging threats.
Neuromorphic Processing and Cyberthreat Detection
Neuromorphic processing, inspired by the human brain’s neural structure and function, offers a promising approach to cyberthreat detection. The Akida processor, with its event-based technology, is inherently lower power than conventional neural network accelerators, providing energy efficiency with high performance for partners to deliver AI solutions previously not possible on even battery-operated or fan-less embedded edge devices. BrainChip’s IP supports incremental learning, on-chip learning, and high-speed inference with unsurpassed performance in micro-watt to milli-watt power budgets, making it ideal for advanced AI/ML devices such as intelligent sensors, medical devices, and autonomous systems.
The integration of neuromorphic processing into cybersecurity solutions can provide high-quality protection against cyber threats. Akida’s on-chip learning can adapt to new threats and redirect unknown threats to the cloud, providing faster and more cost-efficient analysis capabilities than otherwise possible. This approach enables effective edge compute to be universally deployable across real-world applications, reducing latency while improving privacy and data security.
Edge AI and Cybersecurity
Edge AI, which involves processing data at the point of acquisition, is becoming increasingly important in cybersecurity. The ability to analyze data locally, without relying on cloud connectivity, can significantly improve response times and reduce the risk of data breaches. BrainChip’s Akida processor, with its neuromorphic architecture, is well-suited for edge AI applications, enabling Edge learning locally to the chip, independent of the cloud.
The benefits of edge AI in cybersecurity are numerous. By processing data at the edge, latency is reduced, and real-time threat detection becomes possible. Additionally, edge AI can improve privacy and data security by minimizing the amount of sensitive data that needs to be transmitted to the cloud for analysis. As the number of connected devices continues to grow, the importance of edge AI in cybersecurity will only continue to increase.

I sent an email to BRN today asking to purchase a USB stick and a Wifi router/ modem and if they are availableThe individual in sales, with whom I've exchanged e-mails recently, said they did offer a USB version at one point, but it "did not offer the right level of performance," so they don't offer it anymore.
It makes sense, considering it probably employed the earlier, slower USB specification, and their current I/O interface used by both the PCIe and NVMe devices use dual PCI lanes.
I agree Dio, but I think Sean reiterated again in that recent podcast interview he did that we are (still) an IP company. Someone correct me if my memory is not serving me well (I couldn’t be bothered listening to it againAgree,
It looks like there will be no Akida IP silicon in ADAS in the near future, and Akida simulation software appears to be impractical for EVs. As DB says, there's always hope it can make an appearance in infotainment.
However, the automotive NN market is dwarfed by the cybersecurity NN market. This is something I've dreamt of since the DUTH days, although I would like to see Akida in USB format for the retro-fit market.
I do think it is becoming clearer day-by-day that the IP only strategy was a strategic mistake. The barriers to entry were just too great, the time-to-market too long, and the customer base too small, particularly considering their sunk cost bias.
Hindsight, spilt milk, water under the bridge, missed opportunities - we're where we are, and the mis-steps are behind us - now we've learnt the foxtrot, we're ready to tango!
Hopefully we get there before we're all like this................Agree,

Even better would be for Intel to buy us out at US$5 / share. They will then become a behemoth and each and everyone of us will have atleast tripled our money. Some of us will have made 248x our investment and this is better than nothingIf Intel wants to survive they can be a good boy and use their forges to produce our military grade neuromorphic chips
Even better is Deepseek, NVidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Meta sign up and buy our technology. I still think it is not if, but when.Even better would be for Intel to buy us out at US$5 / share. They will then become a behemoth and each and everyone of us will have atleast tripled our money. Some of us will have made 248x our investment and this is better than nothing![]()

Time is ticking and very fast and me like probably many other share holders are waiting for this one decent contract in the next 2-3 months for Sean to save his job. If not he should beDio, you have at least twice posted about your dissatisfaction when Sean convinced the Board not long after his appointment to abandon the AKD 1000 NSoC approach we all thought was our next phase, I fully understand the reasoning behind this (monetary) decision, and I have been rather outspoken on Seans comments regarding his "too narrow" comments about our brilliant first run chip, this message I have personally mentioned to both Peter and Anil, as I felt it was disrespectful, to which Sean has watered down his comments numerous times since.
Many shareholders will have noticed the traction that AKD 1000 has gained, it's referenced, photographed, researched, published in all tech articles.
You, I and a number of others familar with the IP approach understand the journey is longer, harder, in that we are trying to not only sell the technology in " blocks", we are saying to clients, you go away and secure a fab and take all the financial risk, it's not an easy sell, especially in this current worldwide financial instability.
Personally, with Sean into his 4th year of a 5 year business plan I can't see us changing direction, but I do currently see a few alternate paths being tested.
The key thing for me with our company is, major tier 1 companies continue to engage, partner, collaborate and generally praise our technology, that's the hardest hurdle and we have cleared it with flying colours !
Yes it's painfully slow, but my belief and loyalty are as strong as back in late 2015.
