BRN Discussion Ongoing
- Thread starter TechGirl
- Start date
So it appears that these presentations focus entirely on the consumer experience rather than the specific technology behind the scenes. CES is all about showcasing each company's end product and not each component therein. I don't think AKIDA will get much of a mention here. Our only real insight to customer uptake will be the financials, just like the CEO said. I think the Mercedes announcement last year was an anomaly, one that they and others are not willing to repeat.

Automatic lane change according to SAE Level 2
Automatic lane change will be added to the car manufacturer's driver assistance systems in the future. The new feature should enable the car to automatically initiate a lane change and overtake slower vehicles when the cruise control is switched on. With the new function, it should be emphasized that it is an extension of partially automated driving according to SAE Level 2, so that the driver retains responsibility at all times and, among other things, must keep his hands on the wheel.
The automatic lane change docks onto existing features of the Distronic and the active steering assistant. If the Distronic is active, this automatically also applies to the active steering assistant, which according to the manufacturer should "take care of the rest". In concrete terms, radar sensors and cameras constantly monitor the car's surroundings in order to detect and eventually overtake slower vehicles. After overtaking, the vehicle can also provide assistance when changing back to the original lane. The feature is also designed to support active route guidance when approaching motorway junctions or exits by initiating automatic lane changes.
The Drive Pilot (test), which has already been introduced in Germany, is an SAE Level 3 system in which responsibility is handed over to the vehicle and the driver can legally devote himself to other tasks such as the in-car office, games and videos allowed. After the introduction first in Germany, Mercedes-Benz also wants to bring the Drive Pilot to the USA. The company has applied for certification in California and Nevada and, once approved, plans to launch the Drive Pilot there later this year.
Although this piece was only posted 24-48hrs ago, it seems that it's already out of date.
Update:
- What: The state of Nevada has approved Mercedes-Benz level 3 system

What about brainchip saying, socionext and VVDN will showcase akida?
Is that not happening.
I'm sorry, I found that boring as batshit - doesn't TESLA have automatic lane changes etc? Not quite as groundbreaking as I was expecting....Mercedes-Benz: Distronic kann langsamere Autos automatisch überholen

I hope so, it will be interesting to see how much they reveal and how thoroughly they promote the technology. MERC have said nothing to reinforce the advantages that AKIDA has specifically given them.
Yes listened to it and no mention of brainchip/akida. Do you know when socionext or VVDN presenting.

I am not a lawyer anymore and was never a patent lawyer but there is a single core proposition which I think will make a patent secure and it is as follows.How different does a patent have to be to not violate patent law?
My understanding there is no formula, such as a 20 percent difference being enough to avoid infringement. Instead, inventors should follow the requirements of distinctiveness: being novel and non-obvious
To qualify for a design patent, the subject must be new in the sense that no single, identical design exists in the prior art, it must satisfy the ornamental standards, and it must be original to the inventor or inventors seeking protection.
Apparently, the patent description should include everything that makes your invention new. It must also include the information necessary for an average person to make your invention. Together with the claims component, a patent description is known as the specification
So PVDM and others at BRN have already registered patents and continue to register new patents with our patent lawyers expert advice etc and the Akida patents can be obscure enough and lack detail to not give away the secret sauce of Akida, then it appears the patent must also include the information for an average person to make your invention.
Who is this average person? Lol
Note - I’m sure Diogenese and FACTFINDER may have a very logical answer as a reply to the above.
Be the science fiction.
This is more than just being first to lodge your patent though this can be enough but be the first with something so off the wall, so unthought of, so original that it borders on or is the science fiction.
Why is this so important.
Well if as Peter van der Made has done you have taken thin air and created something no one has ever seen before you make yourself the expert, the ultimate authority, the person from whom all knowledge about that creation originates.
Then have the good sense to evidence the fact that you started with thin air by writing a book about taking the thin air and seeing in it the idea that no one else had seen before.
If you do this successfully then
evidence of this will be found in the fact that the Patent Office when reviewing a claim in a patent application will refer to your previous published opinion to determine if a breach is occurring.
This indeed has already happened with an Examiner at the US Patent Office quoting what Peter van der Made had written when adjudicating another’s patent application.
If someone should breach or attempt to breach an AKIDA patent the most qualified expert in the world to give expert testimony about the technology and where the breach takes place is now and for all time Peter van der Made.
Think about the Bible. It is said to be the word of God. Everyday humans somewhere will debate its meaning and certain interpretations prevail. However the creator of the Bible is the ultimate authority so regardless of what all these human experts decide is the meaning if God the creator of the Bible dropped in for a chat and said no that is not what it means this is what it means it would be foolish to argue.
I am not of course saying Peter van der Made is God but having taken thin air and created AKIDA he is the ultimate authority in a lessor but similar sense.
No one can credibly profess to know more about the theory of AKIDA technology than Peter van der Made.
In the same way no one can claim to know more about the design of the AKIDA engineering than Anil Mankar or as he was nicknamed Mr. Chip.
So coming back to your idea of the reasonable person. Imagine we have God and the Archbishop of Canterbury standing side by side giving their opinion as to what a passage from the Bible conveyed what conclusion do you think the reasonable man would draw about who is correct?
Knowing what the reasonable man would think is largely the application of commonsense.
I may not necessarily have helped you with this answer but it’s the best I have at the moment.

I am pretty sure that if they are saying they will be demo'ing something with socionext, prophesee, VVDN, and NVISO.... that they will indeed be doing it... as per https://finance.yahoo.com/news/brainchip-joins-technology-partners-during-170000207.html and https://nviso.ai/en/news/nviso-s-la...l-neuromorphic-processor-platform-at-ces-2023
This isn't new. This hasn't changed. Why would you think that it is not happening?

The other day someone suggested Brainchip only had one product.
I think this is an inappropriate way to look at AKIDA technology.
AKIDA technology is at its heart a neural processing engine (NPE) AKD1000/AKIDA 1.0 whatever name you want to give it is made up of 80 of these Neural Processing Units (NPUs).
AKD1000 is designed to allow for 64 x AKD1000 to be ganged together and this would then be a semiconductor of 5,120 NPU’s
Brainchip has said they could if needed gang 1,024 AKD1000 chips together making a total of 81,920 NPU’s.
Renesas licenced just two nodes or 8 NPE’s.
Anil Mankar stated at the 2021 Ai Field Day that you could do keyword spotting with just one node if you did not have latency concerns but 1.5 to 2 nodes would likely be desirable and referenced Renesas.
MegaChips licensed an 80 NPU AKD1000 IP.
Edge Impulse is comparing AKD1000 with a GPU.
So my point is Brainchip does not have just one semiconductor it has on its IP shelf 81,920 variants of that semiconductor IP which can be sold for an ultra low powered single purpose MCU right through to a computing task requiring the computing power of 81,920 NPUs or 1,024 AKD1000 chips.
1,024 AKD1000 chips would give you the computing power of 1,024 GPUs for a total cost of $25,600 being 1,024 x $25.00.
As Peter van der Made said in his Pitt Street Research interview in 2021 ‘we are only just getting started.’
Something further occurred to me which if you doubt my proposition may convince you.
If you look up Intel’s Loihi 1 & 2 you will see the actual manifestation of what I am alluding to as they start with two Loihi chips to make their base product USB then gang together in different numbers to create further variants of Loihi with different Hawaiian names right up to their attempt at a full blown neuromorphic server and claim each one as a separate distinct product.

Hi Pmel, from my understanding they will be demonstrating Akida at their booths for clients, not presenting a keynote mentioning Akida. Hope this helps
