BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Rick Deckard]

SG,

I have no doubt Akida is the secret sauce but I'm a little confused with what. Are you suggesting Akida will be used in Valeo's sensors for lidar which Merc are incorporating in their vehicles in 2022? Will those same sensors be used by Merc when they incorporate whatever Nvidia/BRN are working on to be implemented in 2024? If so we should expect some revenue later this year.

**EDIT**
@MC🐠 mentioned this in an earlier post

Just my two cents. Obviously just a guessing game at the moment until we see revenue and a production vehicle with Akida inside but as far as Valeo lidar in Mercedes goes... Mercedes/Daimler have bought a stake in a North American company, Luminar, and it appears this will be their lidar technology in the foreseeable EQ roadmap. Meaning it would seem unlikely that Valeo lidar will be featured in the next generation Mercedes. That's not to say BRN tech won't be a part of future models or that it won't be used in other areas in their vehicles ie. as a part of ADAS or interior MBUX system (EQXX prototype).

Mercedes To Use Luminar's LiDAR's With New Deal

Currently, both companies haven't revealed when the first Mercedes car will be revealed which will have a Luminar LiDAR

Hi Rick. It is interesting. The sensors supplied to Mercedes currently come from Valeo, and it would seem as you suggest that Luminar are going to be involved in supplying lidar, this despite recent claims by Valeo that they will supply their lidar to Mercedes. Further complicating it all is that Luminar works with mobile eye and Nvidia. It's really hard to put this puzzle together. Think I will just wait to see it unfold, unless someone can present a reasonable scenario.

Mercedes-Benz and lidar expert Luminar Technologies, Inc. have entered into a partnership to develop future technologies for highly automated driving.

CORRECTION to my rambling above:
My 2 cents is that Mercedes are forming multiple partnerships with various tech companies so that they can draw from many to solve problems, both foreseeable and unforeseeable. Given all the Valeo research pointing to their Lidar being in Mercedes I would put them as the main player. So much for me waiting to see it all unfold. It has taken me all of 2 minutes to come up with a new theory and convince myself that I am right.

No need for correction - you wrote it yourself: "Obviously just a guessing game at the moment..."

As long as my translation skills are fair enought (guess = glauben, schätzen, raten) You can guess whatever you want...

These are just my 2 cents...

Edit: I just read my post again: It is not to be meant to be harsh

Come on BRN let’s have at least another 100% increase in revenue of the 4C that is due out anytime. Otherwise I’m going to have to sell my soul to buy some more shares.

Column: How to sell your soul to the devil - the right way

Columnist Mikel Kelly reminisces about one of his favorite articles from the Weekly World News.

pamplinmedia.com

Just in case anyone else is interested

SET THE DEAL UP PROPERLY. There's a right and wrong way to make contact with the Devil. The right way is to be alone in your room, close your eyes and say, "Satan, I summon you. I have a quality soul to sell if the price is right." It may take dozens, even hundreds of tries, but at all costs, avoid sounding desperate or needy. He'll show up eventually.

• DEAL FROM A POSITION OF POWER. By far the biggest mistake people make is to underestimate how badly Satan wants their soul. It's like precious gold to him and he'll pay anything to get it. When he appears, get him to make the first offer, then up it.

• GET THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Remember, you're going to burn in Hell forever. So no matter how badly off you are now, demand the best. For instance, even if you feel unlovable and desperate with loneliness, don't just say, "I want the most gorgeous woman on Earth and I want her to be madly in love with me." Instead, add, "In fact, throw in 100 other women as well so I can pick and choose according to my mood."​

Careful there Rocket577. Beauty is in the eye of the Beer Holder. Those gorgeous dames might not quite fit your personal stamp of approval. He is the devil you know..........just sayin!

Seems to me, the Merzedes Benz deal holds a secret. They want to put it in a product that will scale, add it in many solutions, year after year autos. This stuff is complicated. Whenever revenue news happens, expect some wow-factor. For the next 5 years, the Brainchip news will be big and bold. The people that want to put it in first, these are fat-cats and want to do it at big scale.

Every knows, only the smartest-most-forward-thinking companies are looking for Spiking Neural Network Architecture Solutions. When revenue numbers really blast in 2024+, it will be in products sold globally and in mass, in my opinion. Cars, smart phones, industrial products which scale, medical products that scale.

Dip buying Stuart!

 

[Justchilln]

I’m expecting a significant drop in the quarterly, could be a great buying opportunity.

 

[stuart888]

For those going to the next meeting, a question please:

Rob, since we know there is a lot of expertise, science, and forward thinking with your solutions, should we assume most of the early adopters are focused on Large Scale Distribution?

Seems like a fair question. The answer has to be large scale. Special needs for Nasa, but all the industrial production of Akida versions should be big deals. Medium/smaller end buyers that want to put this in products have less skills and resources. Brainchip is playing in the big leagues. They said, they are picky with their time. That was a secret statement, only scale projects please!

@stuart88 Rob isn't going to be at the AGM in Sydney only Sean, Ken and Tony.

Thanks a bunch. My point is all smiles: Brainchip is playing in the big leagues. Large scale deals. If Brainchip wins, we will all win.

Mercedes Benz played with Intel’s Loihi before jumping on the Brainchip Bus.

Mercedes Benz is currently using Valeo and Valeo has its next generation LiDAR on the way. Commentators who have reported on it say Valeo is well ahead of competitors.

Luminar is not yet in Mercedes Benz and the agreement is with Mercedes Benz North America and involves Mercedes Benz supplying data.

The first ever in the World Level 3 licence must have been granted to Mercedes Benz using Valeo as Valeo is the LiDAR they are currently using and are using for the world first self parking system in the US.

I note that Mercedes bought shares in Tesla at one stage but that did not guarantee a life long commitment.

I don’t think it is a done deal that Luminar is going to replace Valeo.

AKIDA BALLISTA

 

[Labsy]

A while ago (on the crapper) i posted a long winded rant about Intel and how they stand to lose a lot due to the rise of akida, and how they were "creating loihi 2" as a precursor to "magically" releasing a "breakthrough neuromorphic chip" with our ip............

This article i believe, supports that theory in it's infancy......

Speculation only, dyor.
.

An Intel chip that mimics the human brain could end up in your next PC

Neuromorphic computing could be available a lot sooner than you think

www.techradar.com

I agree

Great article on growing prospects for edge computing operations and datacentres. It also mentions telecoms operators deploying edge services.


Extract
CCS Insight has reported on the growing band of telecoms operators deploying mobile edge services with AWS Wavelength, which embeds AWS computing and storage at the edge of an operator’s 4G and 5G networks. CCS research highlights four network operators – KDDI, SK Telekom, Verizon and Vodafone – with mobile edge services based on that system.

Growing prospects for edge datacentres | Computer Weekly

Although the value that edge datacentres provide is not in question, for many companies, the journey to adoption is far from fixed.

At 11.50pm last night @Slade secretly posted the following link and the article itself on another thread. If you are an investor in Brainchip not a trader or even a manipulator you need to read it it to fully comprehend the size of the Tiger you have by the tail here at Brainchip.

Nasdaq rebounds on Wall St rally - but should we care here in Australia depends on whether you are an investor or a trader.

Investor - not really but pleased for US retail shareholders

Trader - damn I need volatility and I spent all weekend on social media promoting a Wall Street crash to promote uncertainty among Aussie retail.
