From the above can we deduce that we are on-selling Prophesee's tech, thereby earning $$? If so, there could be more like this in the pipeline. Other sensor designers might beat a path to our door.
Other way around I think....they will intergate AKIDA IP into their product.

My opinion only. DYOR

This is mysterious and difficult to fathom -

iCatch and SONY are close to Prophesee with new products and an NPU and funny that Towers Semiconductor have now been acquired by Intel for US 5.4 billion

To me it looks very much like Akida IP is becoming a defacto standard in all vision applications especially when a recent V137 chip was released which seems odd given this partnership

Interesting Bosch is also a partner of Prophesee - all these partners of prophesy who I seem to remember have connections to JAST !

KEYNOTE: Event-Based Vision: A New Standard for Advanced Machine Vision Systems​

Presentation will begin: Thursday, July 21, 2022 - 11:00 AM EDT
Presented by: Luca Verre, Prophesee

Traditional machine vison systems have relied on frame-based methods, which represent motion by capturing a number of still frames each second. For modern computer-enabled vision in industrial machines, this representation of motion is of little use. The camera is “blind” between each frame, losing information on moving objects, and each image — containing the same irrelevant background objects — is repeatedly recorded, generating excessive unhelpful data. Evolution has developed an elegant solution so that natural vision never encounters these problems. It doesn’t take frames. Cells in our eyes report back to the brain when they detect a change in the scene. This is the founding principle behind Event-Based Vision: – Independent receptors collect all the essential information, and nothing else. Event-based vision is a paradigm-shifting advancement that uses neuromorphic techniques based on how the human eye records and interprets visual inputs. Among the benefits of the sensor technology for developers of advanced machine vision systems are energy efficiency, low latency, adaptive processing, and rapid learning. Event-based vision is ideally suited to machine vision applications — for industrial automation, IoT, automotive, and mobile cases — that require extremely-high performance, low-power operation, and/or operation in challenging lighting conditions.
