I often Wonder what the SP would be right now how MB not open their big mouths.
- Weād have not run to unrealistic level;
- Weād have likely not entered the ASX200 and had have been targeted by shorters;
- Company progress would have likely been considered far more valuable.
I think weād have likely been over $1 and it would have been sustainable. The MB tweets were imo one of the worst things that couldāve happened to us.

A millionaire...again... you will be...my friend. Succeed...brainchip will....
Succumb to negative thoughts.... we should not....
May the nuromorphic force be with you.
Think the next big announcement will be Extraordinary AGM,Change of directors and Sean,next quarterly will sow the seeds for strike 2 and hopefully Tony gets the flick to,biggest waste of money.
wow chill bro , i just dont think what you post is relevant , i like a load on LinkedIn , doesn't mean the company i work for has any link to it

The Jericho Smart Sensing Lab at the University of Sydney Nano Institute has developed a prototype sensor system for the RAAF that mimics the brainās neural architecture to deliver high-tech sensing technology.
Dubbed MANTIS, the system under development integrates a traditional camera with a visual system inspired by neurobiological architectures. This āneuromorphicā sensor works at 'incredibly high' speeds, which will allow aircraft, ships and vehicles to identify fast moving objects, such as drones.
āCombining traditional visual input with the neuromorphic sensor is inspired by nature. The praying mantis has five eyes ā three simple eyes and two composite. Our prototype works a bit like this, too,ā Professor Ben Eggleton, Director of Sydney Nano, said.
MANTIS combines two visual sensing modes in a lightweight portable unit, operated via dashboard interface, with a processing system that is on board the craft, ship or vehicle. The aim is to enable a direct comparison of images and allow for the rapid exploration of the neuromorphic sensor capabilities.
Sydney Nano worked with the School of Architecture, Design and Planning to develop the prototype in just three months.
āThere are many things that excite me about MANTIS. The level of detail that it provides and its ability to track high-speed events is very impressive," Air Vice-Marshal Cath Roberts, Head of Air Force Capability, said. āIt's a promising sensor fusion that has really strong potential across Defence.ā
Professor Eggleton leads the Jericho Lab team that saw delivery of the prototype. The four-kilogram small-form design will allow the camera to be easily used on aircraft, ships and vehicles to detect challenging targets.
āThe neuromorphic sensor has exquisite sensing capabilities and can see what can't be seen with traditional cameras,ā he said. āIt invokes the idea of the eye in animals but has leading-edge technology built into it.ā
Whereas a traditional camera is constrained by frame rates, each pixel in a neuromorphic camera functions independently and is always āonā. This means the imaging system is triggered by events. If itās monitoring a static scene, the sensor sees nothing and no data is generated.
āWhen there is an event, the sensor has incredible sensitivity, dynamic range and speed,ā Professor Eggleton said. āThe data generated is elegantly interfaced with an IT platform allowing us to extract features using machine-learning artificial intelligence.ā
āWe look forward to developing this device further and collaborating with other experts in this area, including Western Sydney Universityās International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, which are the leaders in neuromorphic research in Australia.
MANTIS is the result of the partnership between the University of Sydney Nano Institute and Air Forceās Jericho Disruptive Innovation.
āA rapid prototype of this type and scale happening in three months, during COVID, is remarkable,ā said Wing Commander Paul Hay, head of advanced sensing at RAAF Jericho Disruptive Innovation.
The Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG) was also involved in the collaboration, providing early guidance and input.

I know a bit older news and it was posted about Amit's previous decade with Qualcomm, but just reading an article from a couple years ago about the company.
Partnership looks pretty promising with the synergies of their existing product tech aolutions and Akida.
Interesting to see the other founder also ex Qualcomm and worked on commercialising Snapdragon chipsets as well as GMAC being included in Qualcomms smart cities accelerator program and also NVIDIAs Inception cohort.
Be interesting to see how this one develops also.
HOW THESE IISC CLASSMATES ARE BUILDING A GLOBAL DEEP TECH COMPANY TO ENABLE AI ON THE EDGE
Amit Mate and Nagaraj Bās GMAC Intelligence is developing real-time, power-efficient and accurate AI/ML algorithms to enable server-less solutions on Edge devices such as surveillance cameras, small robots, drones and autonomous vehicles.
Team YS 14305 Stories Tuesday June 08, 2021, 6 min Read
For Amit Mate and Nagaraj B, co-founders of GMAC, the decision to launch a startup together wasn't a difficult one, given the camaraderie theyād always shared, be it as classmates at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) or while working at Qualcomm.
The journey from being classmates to business partners was inspired by a single goal: to make innovative products using state-of-the-art technologies such as artificial intelligence, 5G and Edge computing accessible to one and all. With this goal, the duo launched GI4ALL- an AIoT-as-a service for businesses, enterprises and city governments.
GMAC is commercialising its AI/ML software and algorithms to power applications such as touchless attendance, visitor management, automatic licence plate recognition and activity recognition.
ALSO READ GMAC Intelligence Joins Qualcomm Smart Cities Accelerator Program to enable AIoT-as-a-service products
Customers can access these services by signing up on their portal gi4all.web.app and installing the GI4ALL app from Google Playstore on multiple Edge AI cameras.
GMACās AI/ML software is capable of processing all AI on the cameras itself in real time, so customers donāt need to buy and maintain expensive servers.
GMAC also provides a server-less cloud component to store relevant data and share intelligence across devices ā which makes their solution more robust than any other systems out there in the market.
A real-time dashboard ensures that the authorised stakeholders get regular updates and reports as captured by the AI/ML software.
These offerings run on Android devices that are accessible by almost everyone. Connecting the dots
The inspiration behind GMACās design ideology can be traced back to Amit and Nagarajās vast experience of working on cutting-edge technologies such as 3G/4G, Edge compute, VRand AI/ML during their stints with Qualcomm between 2008 and 2019.
Amit has vast global R&D experience in leading and bringing new technologies to life such as 3G-Femtocells, 4G modems, real-time VR and AI across Nokia Research (Helsinki, Finland), Qualcomm Research (San Diego, CA) and other high-profile startups (Silicon Valley and East Coast).
He also has several award-winning patents to his name.
Nagaraj was extensively involved in commercialising chipsets like the Snapdragon 630 and Snapdragon 730 which are being used in millions of smartphones today.
With their experience of working on pioneering technologies for consumer electronics, the duo wondered how such solutions can be made available to businesses that lack the IT infrastructure for a massive digital transformation, and whether AI/ML models could simplify such access.
āOnce we decided to launch GMAC, we aimed to combine AI, IoT and SaaS platforms in a way that it becomes easy even for SMBs/SMEs/governments to deploy sophisticated tools for tasks like recording attendance, visitor management and access control using facial, vehicle and activity recognition,ā
Amit says. āWe wanted to design plug-and-play solutions that can be used with various IoT devices such as digital locks and boom barriers using AI.ā
Turning a crisis into a deep tech opportunity The business model was finalised by May 2020, right when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak.
However, the founders made the best of the situation. āDuring the pandemic, a lot of students who had plans to study abroad were stuck in the country,ā Amit recalls. āAt the same time, a lot of talented professionals were also looking for challenging opportunities in the AI/ML space.
This enabled us to hire the best professionals from across India. So, we laid the foundation of the company by choosing the best talent to design our products.ā
Another factor that helped GMAC is the launchpad they got from the local deep tech community. āIISc announced GMAC as one of the upcoming startups which were a part of its āDeep Tech @ IIScā cohort in 2019,ā said Amit.
The initiative was launched especially for IISc alumni, faculty members and students and aimed at supporting solutions that leveraged deep tech to drive impact in the society.
āThen Qualcomm welcomed us to their Smart City Accelerator programme and NVIDIA to their Inception cohort and provided us the much needed visibility in the global deep tech community,ā he adds.
According to the founders, the pandemic helped them design products that were future-forward. āFor instance, the residential society where I live has over 100 security guards, domestic help and gardeners coming in every day,ā Amit says.
Before the pandemic, they were paid according to the number of days they reported for work, and their attendance was recorded via a finger-printing device.
But during the pandemic, the residential society asked Amit if his company could design a system that can allow attendance to be recorded in a contactless fashion.
āSo, we installed the GMAC touchless attendance device on multiple gates to solve the problem,ā says Amit. What worked in GMACās favour was the productās easy-to-use interface.
āAlmost anybody could use it and it did not require any changes in the existing IT systems of the society. So, every time a new maid or guard was hired, they could easily be added to the system without any hassles.ā
Built to scale
Talking about the USPs of GMACās offerings, Nagaraj says these productsā versatility is their biggest advantage.
āThere are a large number of SMEs and SMBs that don't want to shift from their legacy systems,ā he notes.
As GMAC solutions run on Android, they can be accessed by everyone who has a smartphone. āOur solutions are cost-effective, and do not require one to switch to sophisticated technologies like cloud server environments, which might not always be feasible for places like factories, hospitals and schools, given their IT constraints,ā Nagaraj explains.
Moreover, as all the AI processing happens on camera, GMACās customers do not have to buy and install any servers.
Their cost-effectiveness and accessibility give GMAC an edge over several established players. The startup depends on Google to shield its software and devices from cyberattacks and security breaches.
āUsing Googleās security features has helped us build standardised products.
While the software has built-in biometric protection, it is also password-protected and can be accessed only by the admins.
The devices have clamps and locks to hold them in place and prevent theft,ā says Amit.
For now, the two friends-turned-business partners are busy scaling their sales by targeting the ideal customer profile for their products.
Less than a year in running, GMAC is already taking strides with a technology that can be scaled, and is charting out growth strategies in areas such as facial recognition, and designing solutions that can sense hazardous situations and accidents in factories.
āWe are also working on activity detection solutions, which can help companies improve management of employees and detect staff members who might be idling away during shifts,ā Nagaraj says.
While there might be similar solutions being offered by other players, Amit says that most of them are not plug-and-play or 5G-ready.
āThis is where GMAC would come in,ā he adds. Currently, GMAC solutions have been deployed in residential societies, hotels, hospitals, colleges, movie theatres and factories.

Short Q&A from this time last year.
Def see the synergies.
www.edgecomputingworld.com
In the lead up to Edge Computing World, weāre taking some time to speak to key Executives from the leading companies. Today weāre talking with Amit Mate, Founder & CEO of GMAC Intelligence
Tell us a bit about yourself ā what led you to get involved in the edge computing market and GMAC Intelligence
I have always been fascinated by AI algorithms and how they can solve problems where traditional engineering tools fail. In my career, even before deep learning was a thing, I was using learning algorithms to improve wireless technology and enabling on-device machine vision. As I was working in the Edge compute industry ,I was able to see the Mooreās law taking root in AI compute. It was perfect time to combine two of my passions Connectivity and AI algorithms to build something useful and accessible to the masses. My co-founder , IISc classmate (Masters) and Qualcomm colleague Nagaraj and I decided to take the plunge and build something for the global market.
What is it you & your company are uniquely bringing to the edge market?
We are building server-less AI/ML solutions. Our innovations have facilitated moving all AI inferencing from dedicated cloud servers to on-device, on-premise and server-less cloud/lambda functions in our solutions. We have been able to commercialize our AI/ML solutions with 1000x cost reduction while still maintaining an expense ratio of 0.01.
Tell us more about the company, whatās your advantages compared to others on the market, who is involved, and what are your major milestones so far?
We build connected intelligence solutions, where our algorithms and software enable multiple connected smart devices to learn, infer and collaborate on the Edge.
We build plug-n-play solutions ā which enable easy and rapid deployment and scaling.
We are striving for highest useful TOPs/$ on the Edge ā by making our solutions multi-stream, multi-AI, multi-delegate (GPU/CPU/NPU).
We are offering our solutions with SaaS business model. Customers can choose any solution from facial/vehicle/activity recognition OR any custom application. We provide a unified dashboard and a LCNC option to integrate the Edge meta-data into existing dashboards. Our solutions have built-in BLE based access control.
We have deployed these solutions commercially in India and now looking to bring our capabilities to solve problems of the US Enterprise market.
How do you see the edge market developing over the next few years?
Edge solutions will increase in complexity and functionality over the next few years starting from a few sectors such as QSRs, Retail, Security (SMEs) and finally engulfing the entire Enterprise space.
Consumer grade devices will increase in AI compute capability from 20 TOPs today to 200 TOPs in couple of years and continue the Mooreās law. This will enable several new applications that were not possible few years ago on the Edge.
What are the main trends you see about integrating edge computing into different verticals?
As we start integrating Edge computing into different verticals and Edge AI starts to proliferate, TCO per Edge site is going to be a major factor in decision making.
Edge compute with built-in connectivity options will also have better value proposition as we start build learning and collaborating Edge AI systems.
Def see the synergies.

well Apex ai seems to know, what they are talking about....
https ://www.apex.ai/wir
Have you ever faced system freezes and shutdowns when processing large amounts of data? Specifically, image processing algorithms like deep neural network based object detection and semantic segmentation in autonomous driving applications are very demanding in terms of data transfer rate and processing power.
In this talk, we show how to efficiently implement a computer vision pipeline using Apex.OS (a safety certified fork of ROS2) which utilizes zero-copy optimizations on the middleware level to reduce bandwidth requirements. In addition, we use hardware accelerated versions of the algorithms to increase the throughput. We also explain how to abstract this hardware acceleration in the application code to decouple it from the underlying SoC.
I have no clue if it has to do with brainchip IP(uuuuu)

When I think about the presentation of the new Mercedes study on the CLA Concept and the prominently presented water-cooled central processor, which Nvidia claims to have been developed according to various media reports on the Internet,.....I ask myself as a non-physicist:
Why with such a large mass of computing power and the resulting heat for the energy consumption of the computing power per second, water cooling is sufficient?
Why doesn't it have to be some kind of oil fluid, for example, which could get much hotter without evaporating?
Could it be because the bulk of the computing power is handled directly on site at the sensor, and if so, which type of chip technology would be the most economical in terms of mass production?
scientists forward!
Could someone calculate how much thermal energy would be released with this type of Nvidia processor without neuromorphic edge computing on the sensor?
Or maybe like someone posted before: it`s a kind of an "flux-generator"
Just have a little fun.

cocktail of yr choice at next agm for this post bravo. remind me.I regret to inform you that I am unable to comply with your request due to a personality disorder that I suffer from that makes me a bit dotty.
But, what I can do is ask you if you think there'a anything a bit weird about the timeline of events listed below. I mean if Snapdragon Digital Chassis was so brilliant at voice control, why didn't Markus Shafer toot about Qualcomm on his linked blog, which was AFTER Mercedes partnered with Qualcomm on its Snapdragon Digital Chassis Solutions?
- Jan 2022 - āWorking with California-based artificial intelligence experts BrainChip, Mercedes-Benz engineers developed systems based on BrainChipās Akida hardware and software,ā Mercedes noted in a statement describing the Vision EQXX. āThe example in the Vision EQXX is the āHey Mercedesā hot-word detection. Structured along neuromorphic principles, it is five to ten times more efficient than conventional voice control,ā the carmaker claimed.
- Sep 2022 - Mercedes and Qualcomm Collaborate to power upcoming Mercedes vehicles with Snapdragon Digital Chassis Solutions
- Oct 2022 - Markus Shafer (Mercedes CTO) asks everyone to vote on a poll in which neuromorphic computing wins the vote
- Jan 2023 - Markus Shafer published his blog on Neuromorphic Computing in which he mentions BrainChip and the amasing efficiency of the voice control in the EQXX
- Sep 2023 - Qualcomm announced it's Snapdragon Digital Chassis will enhance voice control in both BMW and Mercedes vehicles

So, respectfully to answer for me to you is: I have a different kind of understanding, I also can understand your point of view.
For me, brainchip technology has nothing to do with evolving interrupting research start up firms like per example the battery sector.
If there has been developed a game changing battery technology, than it may be much easier to implement this new technology in existing products, because the companies (customers) can do the development for products on their own.
In case of our brainchip "lover", there was never before a market for such products and the customers must develop the new game changing technology hand in hand with the inventor. They also must training their own personal with our researchers in neuromorphic networks. That is, what I believe is very time relvant and needs to have a lot of NDA`s.
It reminds me to the days, when Mr. Daimler and Mr. Benz decided to build an new vehicle without some living horses in front of.
There was a motor, but you had to build a car around this game changing technology......long ago.
Is this a possible picture for you, to tell you how I feel the current situation?
But for sure, I could be wrong and would also be happy if there could be more reliable facts to stabilize market capitalization and shareholder value.
But I believe in management decisions. There has to be developed a market for akida IP products, and I think, that is what they do together with this day to day growing ecosystem they have been build up until yet.

EDGE EXECUTIVE INSIGHT ā AMIT MATE, FOUNDER & CEO , GMAC INTELLIGENCE ā INNOVATOR OF THE YEAR FINALIST
In the lead up to Edge Computing World, weāre taking some time to speak to key Executives from the leading companies. Today weāre talking with Amit Mate, Founder & CEO of GMAC Intelligence
Tell us a bit about yourself ā what led you to get involved in the edge computing market and GMAC Intelligence
I have always been fascinated by AI algorithms and how they can solve problems where traditional engineering tools fail. In my career, even before deep learning was a thing, I was using learning algorithms to improve wireless technology and enabling on-device machine vision. As I was working in the Edge compute industry ,I was able to see the Mooreās law taking root in AI compute. It was perfect time to combine two of my passions Connectivity and AI algorithms to build something useful and accessible to the masses. My co-founder , IISc classmate (Masters) and Qualcomm colleague Nagaraj and I decided to take the plunge and build something for the global market.
What is it you & your company are uniquely bringing to the edge market?
We are building server-less AI/ML solutions. Our innovations have facilitated moving all AI inferencing from dedicated cloud servers to on-device, on-premise and server-less cloud/lambda functions in our solutions. We have been able to commercialize our AI/ML solutions with 1000x cost reduction while still maintaining an expense ratio of 0.01.
Tell us more about the company, whatās your advantages compared to others on the market, who is involved, and what are your major milestones so far?
We build connected intelligence solutions, where our algorithms and software enable multiple connected smart devices to learn, infer and collaborate on the Edge.
We build plug-n-play solutions ā which enable easy and rapid deployment and scaling.
We are striving for highest useful TOPs/$ on the Edge ā by making our solutions multi-stream, multi-AI, multi-delegate (GPU/CPU/NPU).
We are offering our solutions with SaaS business model. Customers can choose any solution from facial/vehicle/activity recognition OR any custom application. We provide a unified dashboard and a LCNC option to integrate the Edge meta-data into existing dashboards. Our solutions have built-in BLE based access control.
We have deployed these solutions commercially in India and now looking to bring our capabilities to solve problems of the US Enterprise market.
How do you see the edge market developing over the next few years?
Edge solutions will increase in complexity and functionality over the next few years starting from a few sectors such as QSRs, Retail, Security (SMEs) and finally engulfing the entire Enterprise space.
Consumer grade devices will increase in AI compute capability from 20 TOPs today to 200 TOPs in couple of years and continue the Mooreās law. This will enable several new applications that were not possible few years ago on the Edge.
What are the main trends you see about integrating edge computing into different verticals?
As we start integrating Edge computing into different verticals and Edge AI starts to proliferate, TCO per Edge site is going to be a major factor in decision making.
Edge compute with built-in connectivity options will also have better value proposition as we start build learning and collaborating Edge AI systems.
