The first GRAIN device that Frontgrade Gaisler will premiere – the Gr801 SoC – integrates Akida™ neuromorphic technology from BrainChip, the world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI. The GR801 combines Gaisler’s NOEL-V RISC-V processor and the Akida neuromorphic AI processor into a single integrated circuit to enable energy-efficient AI applications in the space environment. Sweden’s Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) is contributing to this development by designing a demonstration application that uses a neuromorphic sensor directly connected to Gaisler’s new GR801 device.
Frontgrade Gaisler is designing the entire GRAIN product line to enable more advanced and autonomous space missions, and to enhance the space industry's capabilities in energy-efficient AI. The GR801 SoC will support both commercial and institutional space missions, enabling new applications and meeting strict power and weight constraints.
“Our latest innovation opens new avenues and complements our existing range of proven and reliable processing products,” said Sandi Habinc, General Manager at Frontgrade Gaisler. “GRAIN is an exciting new pursuit for Gaisler because we are well positioned to enable new capabilities for real-time data processing, autonomous navigation, Earth observation, and object detection and tracking.”

It's not really surprising, when you look at their market..BMW is dead to me for good… Then they all complain—sanction China, China is evil, this and that… but in the end, they choose Chinese AI. All the hate just to keep the ordinary citizen in the right mood. But I bet they think it’s an Arabic company…

Yes sure … I know that , but that brings me back to the point that they always try to make us believe how bad Europe’s (Germany’s) relationship with China is… Meanwhile, they continue doing business, but the ordinary citizen is supposed to hate China or at least feel some kind of resentment toward them.It's not really surprising, when you look at their market..

I don’t want to get political, but I just wanted to highlight the double standards. Nothing we don’t already know, but it’s still nauseating every time.

BrainChip and Raytheon: The Next Big Thing in Military AI!
BrainChip and Raytheon: The Next Big Thing in Military AI!www.ainvest.com
Our snow ball is rolling and growing!
We need to get off the ASX baby slope.
We need to get on the Nasdaq black diamond mountain.
I once had Electra shares. Among other mistakes, they went public on the NASDAQ too early and without any turnover. I sold in the euphoria of the announcement after analysing how many new companies or start-ups were successful and how many were not.Schussing down the slope without a skiing helmet made of proper IP licences & resulting revenue expectations is pretty suicidal, though, if you ask me…
Rumour has it, there is a shark tank set up at the end of that obstacle-riddled hazardous Double Black Diamond run that only expert skiers will be able to avoid. And beware of the avalanche risk, too…
By the way, we still don’t know what US stock exchange our management has in mind. Nowhere did they actually say it would be the Nasdaq.
And I agree with what others have also said before: With our current share price in the doldrums, setting sails for the Nasdaq would require us to do a large reverse split before even thinking of crossing the ocean, which in my experience, although it may look totally harmless in theory and on paper - and now please jump back to the skiing imagery - will usually open up the gate to a downward slope so steep long-term shareholders will rarely ever get to climb up again…
I’d much prefer the opposite - a split - one day, like the one I had last year for my NVIDIA shares!![]()
Another example is AHI, who dual listed on the NASDAQ while remaining on the ASX.I once had Electra shares. Among other mistakes, they went public on the NASDAQ too early and without any turnover. I sold in the euphoria of the announcement after analysing how many new companies or start-ups were successful and how many were not.
From the listing onwards, it was all downhill and I was rightly out beforehand. Some time later, when Electra was crushed or gnawed off in the shark tank, there was nothing left and they were delisted.
Never go to the NASDAQ without solid figures I think to myself.

Very, very few new ones were successful. From memory, in the very low single-digit percentage range. So my decision to sell.
Actually, those “exciting news” you shared with us are totally wurst to me.
(It basically means ‘I don’t care’ or ‘it doesn’t make a difference’, and yes, that’s a really common expression in German, even though I’d personally use the variant wurscht in this context.)
Neither does Dana LeVan provide any source at all for his claim that “Mercedes-Benz & BrainChip are moving from R&D to commercial deployment”, nor does he have any connection to either company as far as we can tell.
One thing I was able to find out about him, though, is that he is the former CMO of Wevorce (“New Agreements. Peaceful. Relationships. Skip the courthouse, keep the kindness”). On their website, where he promotes himself as an excellent pick for “private judge”, he describes himself as being highly skilled at Divorce Coaching, so our company may want to save his contact details in case one day a joint partnership goes awry…(https://www.wevorce.com/blog/team/dana-levan/)
Note that he is now the CMO of CrowdSmart.ai (https://www.crowdsmart.ai/about-crowdsmart/), whose “patented human-interactive AI helps groups share and refine their intelligence with curated insights to generate trusted and predictive strategies, plans, and decisions.”
My guess is that his post was largely AI-generated and he unfortunately failed to verify what the LLM came up with.
By the way, when you shared that paragraph from Dana LeVan’s LinkedIn post, why did you cut off the header that reads “Neuromorphic Hardware: The Long-Term Play (3-5 years)”? Didn’t you consider it important to also share that timeframe with us?

Somebody asked Dana LeVan about his claim re MB & BRN on LinkedIn, and he cryptically responded with a quote.
Is it meant to be his own reply, which seems weird given the quotation marks and the fact he himself made that very claim in the first place?
Or was this quote taken from the Trump fan boys’ podcast he referred to earlier in his post (without sharing which episode it was, though)?
I noticed that he also gave Patrick Pasternacki’s second reply a, in which he was informed that the Vision EQXX concept car would never go commercial, but he still didn’t clear up the confusion. His self-description on https://www.wevorce.com/blog/team/dana-levan/ as a “passionate and empathetic communicator who untangles complex circumstances” doesn’t exactly shine through here…

Anyway, not a trustworthy source at all, if you ask me…
I much prefer to listen to the horse’s mouth: “… we’re currently looking into Neuromorphic Computing as part of a research project. Depending on the further development progress, integration could become possible within a timeframe of 5 to 10 years.” (Mercedes-Benz on LinkedIn, January 29, 2025)
https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-ongoing.1/post-449452
Not sure Dio, but that's an interestimg answer by Dana on Linkedin, answering a question with a question but also adding single quotation marks to his answer then adding a question then a further question on qualcomm. Maybe the single quotation mark is a statement. Then combining the questions as one combined?
Isnt the english language intersting when you add or omit apostrophes lol

Anyway all i can say is boomidy boom boom.
