I have asked Prophesee via the contact us facility on their website whether they are using us or Synsense tech. I doubt I will get an answer, but if you don’t ask…..

I checked Prophesee's website and found the following,
Reading between the lines, there is no mention of a ready and available solution for OEM's with the Synsense and Prophesee partnership while there is with the partnership between Brainchip and Prophesee.
The Prophesee and Synsense partnership reads like a collaboration for R&D.
I hope I'm right

"NASA JPL set the goals for the HPSC based on its mission requirements to put autonomy into future spacecraft. Simply put, the tasks associated with autonomy are sensing, perceiving, deciding, and actuating. Sensing involves remote imaging using multi-spectral sensors and image processing"

Synsense started in Switzerland but moved to China.
https://www.msn.com/en-au/money/oth...sedgntp&cvid=f8c537b8a0e645aa8ead5bfb4cdf72e5
...
In November, the (UK) Government announced restrictions on the use of Chinese-made security cameras in 'sensitive' areas amid fears about snooping via devices connected to Whitehall networks.
I wonder if that would include Synsense?

"Optimizing Computer Vision AI Performance" tallys with my thoughts on
Reading between the lines -
making it more practical could mean "there's room for improvement", and
driving development could mean "we are not there yet".

The closing paragraph is ominous for ARM:
One final note: During my research for this article, I discovered that NASA’s HPSC has not always been based on the RISC-V architecture. A presentation made at the Radiation Hardened Electronics Technology (RHET) Conference in 2018 by Wesley Powell, Assistant Chief for Technology at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s Electrical Engineering Division, includes a block diagram of the HPSC, which shows an earlier conceptual design based on eight Arm Cortex-A53 microprocessor cores with NEON SIMD vector engines and floating-point units. Powell continues to be the Principal Technologist on the HPSC program. At some point in the HPSC’s evolution over the past four years, at least by late 2020 when NASA published a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project Phase I solicitation for the HPSC, the Arm processor cores had been replaced by a requirement for RISC-V processor cores. That change was formally cast in stone last September with the announcement of the project awards to Microchip and SiFive. A sign of the times, perhaps?
Makes our 5 bob each way look like a sound bet.
Talking of Synsense, I’m still thinking something has happened with them and iniVation. It’s common knowledge they both worked together to produce “Speck” . They advertise it on all their different pages. Yet at CES 2023, iniVation release their new shiniest and brightest neuromorphic image processor , Aeveon , and I am yet to find any article or anything which links or mentions any Synsense involvement.
Following on from the above partner list, there are others who need us:
Intel
ARM
Intel
Intel is running around in ever decreasing circles, losing market share [ https://www.afr.com/technology/inte...f-its-grimmest-forecasts-ever-20230129-p5cg9k ]
Their Loihi2 is still on training wheels, so they do not have a commercial AI offering comparable with Akida.
ARM
The new kid on the block, SiFive, has already made a lot of friends with its RISC-V tech posing serious competition for ARM's RISC-IV tech.
We are now part of the ecosystem of each of these companies, being offered as an option to their customers. Let's hope that these giants can see the value of Akida in improving the performance of their own processors in regaining much-needed competitiveness.
Bravo
If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
Thanks so much for posting this NASA article @TheDrooben! It helps strengthen my suspicion that we're involved in NASA’s High Performance Spaceflight Computing (HPSC) as per the information posted above (i.e SiFive's Intelligence X280 + Akida hardened AI IP).
Remember Peter van der Made telling us that NASA was very excited about BrainChip. Is it any wonder since now we find out from this article that the HPSC won't just be utilized strictly for missions in space, but it will also be utilized in a variety of applications on Earth "such as defense, commercial aviation, industrial robotics, and medical equipment – as well as being a good candidate for use in government and commercial spacecraft". It also states "The project will result in the development of the HPSC chip, boards, a software stack, and reference designs with initial availability in 2024 and space-qualified hardware available in 2025".
You little ripper!

Full disclosure: Indirect dots are just that - though some of the companies like Samsung has been already been mentioned by Brainchip a few years ago, I have kept a few down there until we get confirmation.

I appreciate we’re getting tired of dots with no announcements/income but I’ll share this for those that are interested.
I’ve been keeping an eye on DRAGANFLY after RT liked it several times on LinkedIn.
Nice announcement from them about their drones being made in India under the ”Made in India“ program. Good increasing market!
As a result of the war in Ukraine I expect every country to ensure they have their own supply chain for drones for both commercial and warlike situations.
Remote Sensing Instruments are the company who have won the contract. I’m not sure of their manufacturing capabilities as the agreement talks about development of manufacturing, marketing and sales; or if they are going to outsource the actual production from a large certified company such as VVDN.
RSI looks like a solid company 34 yrs old and use amongst other things lidar and satellites for mapping purposes.
Drones have been spoken of numerous times so one to keep an eye on!

The lack of price sensitve anns to ASX I understand.NDAs yada yada yada.
I was however ,expecting more from our management."The share price will do what the share price will do" from 6mths ago is no longer suffice to adequetly address the current situation-sORry Sean but in this regard-DO BETTER!
Ive been asking myself these questions again:
Is this a Swill Gates v Telsa situation?
Does Mgt know who is shorting?
If Mgt know what are they doing about it?
Why not Call it out?
Or will the ostrich method continue to be exercised,just bury your head in the sand and pretend its not happening.
IMO it would be helpful if the company was to put out a press release publicy calling out the apparent sp manipulation,but thats just me.
Name and shame these entities who are unsupportive of beneficial A.I and the benefits to all,especially if Aus entities.
Maybe Im way off base and it would do more harm than good???
Anyhow rant over

There's one thing that can stop the shorting.
Revenue.
I am hoping that Sean and the team can deliver over the next 2 quarters and provide shareholders with a bunch of new sales/license fees.
That will burn the shorters.
