BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Frangipani]

Todd Vierra’s Impact Summit 2023 presentation on Sustainable Cities Using Smart Efficient AI is now online!

While the recording of that virtual workshop is publicly accessible via the Hackster.io Impact Summit 2023 website (https://events.hackster.io/impactsummit2023), a lot of the slides Todd showed are marked “2023-11 BrainChip Presentation Confidential”, so I assume we better not share them here? How about other slides from that same presentation that are not marked confidential?

And here are some more of Todd Vierra’s thoughts on Brainchip’s hyperefficient neuromorphic AI technology being critical for sustainable cities, accompanying the workshop presentation of his I had linked to earlier…

Sensors surround all who live in a modern city, capturing vibrations, air quality, water safety, energy usage, sights, sounds, and more. With AI, sensor-fed information is analyzed in real-time, feeding intelligent choices that enhance our quality of life.

BrainChip, an industry pioneer, enables deployment of AI “at the edge” — that is, in locations where the analysis and decisions occur at a sensor without connecting to the cloud or, in some cases, a power source. This truly unlocks the promise of portable, mobile AI. As demands for AI continue to grow, the compute and bandwidth required to support a cloud-only solution becomes economically prohibitive, making edge-based computing more critical than ever.

Neuromorphic AI is an emerging solution. that delivers extremely efficient processing by imitating the human brain. Neuromorphic solutions enable small footprint, low power, cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to traditional AI solutions.

How is neuromorphic AI critical for sustainable cities?​

BrainChip has found methods to boost performance, accuracy, and efficiency by orders of magnitude, expanding AI’s edge use cases. This provides digital solutions within existing power/energy envelopes while amplifying the benefits of AI in delivering intelligent services which extend and optimize most aspects of urban life.

Auto transportation​

AI can optimize traffic flow, reduce congestion, and improve transportation efficiency through real-time data analysis and predictive modeling. Sensors throughout a smart city and a V2X framework can inform smart vehicles of alternate routes. BrainChip’s recent advances in quickly identifying objects (like pedestrians) through streaming video can drastically improve safety both through intelligent vehicular control as well as traffic management.

Alternative energy​

AI-driven systems can manage energy consumption in city infrastructure, optimizing lighting, heating, and cooling to reduce energy waste. Anomaly detection is used for predictive maintenance and system monitoring ensuring longer life of machinery, conserving resources, reducing downtime and reducing supply chain demands.

New agriculture​

Vertical hydroponic and oceanic farms help reduce pollution and improve air quality. These cannot scale without intelligent remote sensors and automation to maintain crops of the future and urban green spaces.

Waste management​

AI can optimize waste collection routes, predict when bins need emptying, and promote recycling and waste reduction initiatives. BrainChip’s collaboration with Circle8 Clean Technologies and AVID Group is entering the pilot phase in Australia to automate sorting and analyze data about consumer habits and the waste stream.

Health​

Portable medical devices, EEG, EKG analyzers that quickly assess health conditions; wearable or implantable devices monitoring and analyzing vital signs that identify known predictors of health issues, not only save lives and cost for individuals by enabling preventative care, but also assists health services readiness for patient arrival, improving outcomes.

Public services​

Improved Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) with voice and vision combined with AI chatbots and virtual assistants can serve citizens to manage efficient interactions more intuitively. BrainChip's solutions have proven capability for accurate interpretation of voice commands, amongst other intelligence needed for this purpose.

Connectivity​

In high density urban conditions, last mile 5G infrastructure needs energy efficient, intelligent nodes for capacity and latency through base stations and Pico cell. Connectivity through satellites is also ramping up. Edge AI is becoming a critical component in all of them.

Innovators are already applying neuromorphic AI and BrainChip is excited to partner with you to deliver on the promise and potential of this incredible technology. Share your ideas at sales@brainchip.com.

Todd Vierra is VP Customer Engagement for BrainChip, which delivers hyperefficient neuromorphic IP compute at the edge.

I’m sure this will be good for business!


ARLINGTON, VA – BlueHalo, a leading provider of critical capabilities and technologies across Space, Air, and Cyber domains, today announced it has acquired Ipsolon Research (“Ipsolon” or the “Company”). BlueHalo is a portfolio company of Arlington Capital Partners (“Arlington”), a Washington, D.C.-area private equity firm with extensive experience investing in regulated industries. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Founded in 2018, Ipsolon designs and manufactures high-performance, ultra-small form factor Software Defined Radios (“SDR”) for use in mission-critical spaces constrained by harsh environments. Ipsolon’s flagship SDR products include Cerberus, which offers leading functionalities and features in a small form factor that is made for movement on both land and air, and Chameleon, which provides substantial processing and multi-antenna capabilities in a single SDR module. Ipsolon’s defense-grade equipment, and specialization in ultra-small form factor SDRs, allows for a wide variety of use cases in military applications. Ipsolon’s reputation and ability to deliver rapid prototyping of SDR hardware and software for SDR applications has enabled the Company to deliver its critical solutions across a broad portfolio of demanding customers throughout the Department of Defense (“DoD”), including the United States Navy and United States Air Force.

The acquisition of Ipsolon directly complements several ongoing strategic and technological initiatives at BlueHalo and will allow for expedited timeframes for rapid prototyping and product delivery while ensuring quality across the supply chain.

Well, in all the years I’ve been hanging around investment forums (25 or so) I’ve never made a prediction, mostly because I don’t have the rocks and also because I’m not a smart man haha. But…. here I go. I think the nexus between our world first tech, our meticulously built ecosystem, our partnerships, our JDAs, our IP licensees, our business model, our current management, our marketing and the current market opportunity for edge compute is about to bear fruit. It’s been a long road and I am now a design cycle expert and have had the patience of a monk. My prediction is in the next 6 months we will see our company grow and good revenue appear. Let’s see how this post ages.
PS Thank goodness sanity is prevailing and it is being acknowledged that AKD1000 is not a failure. AKD1000 is the acorn from where the mighty oak will sprout and is sprouting. I think both Sean and Antonio could have worded their thoughts on AKD1000 a lot better. I’m sure PVDM did not agree. Onward.

Agree. Remember, with at least one customer, bringing out Akida 2 trumped our own ace.
