so nice really but i hope i finde anotherway to find news i don´t want to live in munic, we will see, i live next to the bavarian lake

That is the marvel of AKIDA you can keep your water view and let AKIDA remotely monitor at virtually no power cost. You could even sublet the apartment to someone else on the condition they do not touch or move the camera. FF

You might even get some pictures of the latest BMW that you could sell to a motoring magazine. FF

 

[Slade]

I cannot find anything in the documents that jumps out at me as being AKIDA IP nodes.

We are told Renesas are bringing out MCU’s with AKIDA IP on board. The documentation in your links states this eliminates the need for MCU’s.

I personally think we are looking in the wrong direction here but it is just one opinion.

Renesas did not licence the full AKIDA IP stack.

My opinion only DYOR

AKIDA BALLISTA

Time will tell. Meanwhile I have woken with something else that is puzzling me. We see that Ford is no longer appearing on BrainChip presentations. I think that this is because they are the one company that Sean recently acknowledged as not pursuing Akida directly via BrainChip Inc anymore (Pure speculation). I say directly because I think it may actually makes more sense for Ford to purchase Akida through Valeo or Renesas. This way they cannot only be secretive about their use of Akida but they also end up acquirIng Akida from those that expertise in the automotive industry, supported of course by BrainChip engineers.
It is difficult trying to figure how the different players fit together. I have certainly developed an appreciatIon, or more a sense of awe, for the many products and forms in which Akida could be used. I guess when it comes to BrainChip there will always be dots to try and join.

Not sure if this has been posted but its quite cool to watch. Enjoy & Happy Easter Monday.

Hi JC
Somebody said so if I had a guess it would be Ken Scarince in the recent presentation he did filling in for Sean Hehir.

Also be sure to check out @Fullmoonfever’s thread ‘Hit List Leads’.

@Stable Genius that BMW logo just keeps turning up - I am sure it is just a coincidence that it was a BMW in the Brainchip video for Hey AKIDA to throw us off the Hey Mercedes track.

Then again if we finally accept that AKIDA is the one and only first in the world commercially available SCNN chip and the only one offering chip or IP who the bloody else could it actually be???

You really would have to be a WANCA to propose it was not AKIDA if it has ultra low power, on chip convolution, on chip incremental and one shot learning with and without connection it is now just so ……. obvious.

My opinion only DYOR

AKIDA BALLISTA

Lest anyone think I have decided to downramp I have brought over my post from FMF’s thread just now:

Something that occurred to me just a moment ago. Of the confirmed engagements Ford is the only one he takes credit for and does not take credit for any of the following:

1. Mercedes Benz
2. Valeo
3. Socionext
4. Renesas
5. MegaChip
6. NaNose
7. Noisey Gut Belt
8. NASA
9. Vorago
10. ISL
11. Intellisense, or
12. Biotome

The former CEO Mr. Dinardo stated publicly that they had signed “well North of 100 NDA’s”.

Some of the phrases used to describe the Brainchip opportunity:

“Insatiable demand” “disrupting industries that do not exist” “explosive sales” “saturate the market” “ ubiquitous” “become the standard” “two to three year lead” “that’s your margin of victory” “5 to 10 times more efficient than conventional solutions” “It’s not enough to be 30% better, it needs to be five to 10 [times] better,” see FU Bacon “stay at the forefront”

Just three of the public endorsements of Brainchip by Global Industrial players:

SOCIONEXT:

“As a leading provider of ASICs worldwide, we are pleased to offer our customers advanced technologies driving new innovations,” said Noriaki Kubo, Corporate Executive Vice President of Socionext Inc. “The Akida family of products allows us to stay at the forefront of the burgeoning AI market. BrainChip and Socionext have successfully collaborated on the Akida IC development and together, we aim to commercialize this product family and support our increasingly diverse customer base.”​

MEGACHIPS:
“As a trusted and loyal partner to market leaders, we deliver the technology and expertise they need to ensure products are uniquely designed for their customers and engineered for ultimate performance,” said Tetsuo Hikawa, President and CEO of MegaChips. “Working with BrainChip and incorporating their Akida technology into our ASIC solutions service, we are better able to handle the development and support processes needed to design and manufacture integrated circuits and systems on chips that can take advantage of AI at the Edge.”

MERCEDES BENZ:
“Working with California-based artificial intelligence experts BrainChip, Mercedes-Benz engineers developed systems based on BrainChip’s Akida hardware and software,” Mercedes noted in a statement describing the Vision EQXX. “The example in the Vision EQXX is the “Hey Mercedes” hot-word detection. Structured along neuromorphic principles, it is five to ten times more efficient than conventional voice control,” the carmaker claimed…

I'll share this one with the team and get your thoughts.....

A while ago you may remember I made a comment about the way you setup your google search criteria and the results it returns, ie I found out when you perform a search like this [ site:xxxxx.com + brainchip] it will perform the search on all available subpages in that domain. In summary a search like the one in the square brackets is suppose to return the resulting pages that have the text "brainchip" in any webpage that appears in the xxxxx.com domain.

So, for the past half hr this morning I tried multiple search combinations in this format with many of the big name car and consumer market companies and 2 results popped up

1. When I searched: site:www.sony.net + brainchip it returned the following result:

https://www.sony.com.au/electronics/bravia-xr?yt_techfilm

What this effectively means is that the webpage should contain the word "brainchip" somewhere inside it. However I haven't been able to find the reference to brainchip, yet the search criteria specifically reference brainchip? I even checked the web page source code to no avail.


2. When I searched: site:www.lg.com + brainchip it returned the following result:

Similarly I can't find any reference to Brainchip in this webpage either, however both webpage are bang on the money with what Brainchip's AKIDA can do!

Short of saying these 2 products have Brainchip's AKIDA chip or IP in them, does anyone have any thoughts?
If they are not link in any way, why would a search specifically with the word "Brainchip" bring up these 2 results?

This presentation from Valeo is a must read:

https: //www.valeo.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Presentation_MoveUp_Strategic_Financial_Outlook_2022-2025.pdf

FF it includes Valeo supplying BMW so there is our link to them:

Interestingly it also includes Stallantis who looks like they are going to need our services in cabin also:

And BMW are heavily involved with Stellantis and Waymo as well for some of their autonomous driving.

Stellantis have 14 brands covered.

So with Daimer, Ford, Toyota and Stellantis (including BMW) I think we’re going to have most of the car market covered and become the default industry standard!

When I read articles like this and consider how once upon a time in a world not that far away parents, grandparents, friends and strangers had the ability to remember for more than ten seconds that they had the care of a child and they were in the car with them and now Governments around the world are legislating to make car manufacturers include intelligent devices to supplement humans after their ten second memory span has been exhausted ALL I CAN SAY IS AS BLIND FREDDIE SAYS -

‘This market that AKIDA technology can service is growing like a house on fire and will be worth a zillion billion dollar bucks.

The only way Brainchip will not capture at least one percent of this market is if they get high on cocaine and stay in bed for the next three years.

They truly are disrupting markets that do not exist yet and which are still to be thought of or imposed by Governments.’

There has been plenty of research & links back to qualcomm and the recent interview with their CEO showed they definitely are not intending to get left behind, certainly alot of what Qualcomm want Akida can provide.

If there is a partnership, I would expect a long lasting NDA wrapped around it.

I wonder if Karl may have anything to add.

Hi Slade,

Autobrains are working with our competition, Ambarella (AI vision tech), but that doesn't necessarily mean they're not working with us also IMO.

The announcement of the Ambarella/Autobrains collaboration states "The companies are also working on solutions for the future, including a centralized domain control unit that can utilize multiple cameras and a variety of additional sensors, such as radar, lidar and others".


It also alludes to Autobrains having their own self-learning techology, which is what I ASSUME is AKIDA.

“Autobrains’ self-learning AI technology bridges the gap toward the promise of fully autonomous vehicles,” said Igal Raichelgauz, CEO of Autobrains. “By reducing the burden of manually labeling data that feed systems, which causes the misinterpretation of the most challenging scenarios, our technology enables far more features with increased accuracy. Running our extremely efficient software on Ambarella’s modern and efficient AI perception SoCs creates a cost efficiency leap in increased levels of autonomy. The resulting solution differs greatly from competitors’ systems not only in features and quality, but also in its approach of equipping our customers with an open-box solution that can be explained, controlled and customized. Autobrains is excited to collaborate with Ambarella, a company that shares our passion for innovation and our focus on algorithms that create products with value for the automotive industry.”

The problem with this theory is that as they announced Ford as an EAP as a price sensitive announcement on the ASX if Ford formally discontinued Brainchip must as a matter of law make a further ASX price sensitive announcement to that effect.

No announcement therefore Ford are continuing.
