Many thanks Wizy123 it is certainly interesting and gives some substance to the Nviso Brainchip partnership:

I wanted to copy and paste some parts but it was resistant to my advances.

Still leaves some scope for more information about the use of ‘Group’ but definitely a must read.

Prasad Deshpande from VALEO 'likes' the Brainchip/ Microchip news.

Seems such a random thing for someone at Valeo to like.

After reading all the information about companies and the upcoming CES show in Vegas, I'd be disappointed if there's no Akida news

But I guess you’ll be back here down ramping when there isn’t any announcement

If we get some news... Awesome. Maybe learn to not get your hopes up and wont be disappointed.

Cant wait for the Downies and Whingers to come out all guns firing if we dont get anything.

 

[DingoBorat]

I understand your anticipation. Unfortunately I don't have any real-time information for you. For the latest news on Akida or any other updates from CES, I recommend checking the official CES website for the most current information.

Why did you delete your only other 2 posts? ..

And then after being a forum member for almost 2 years, suddenly pop your head up to reply to a known troll?

Hi All
I am a bit interested in the term 'NVISO Group'.

Anyone know what companies make up the 'Group'?

I ask only because when they were chasing funds offering shares and sent out some material I don't recall anything about there being other
companies involved or about them being part of a Group. I did not follow up their offer so know no more than this.

My opinion only DYOR

Hi FF,

Looks like it's their official name:

https://nviso.ai/terms-of-use/
These Terms of Use define the terms by which you may use the nviso.ai website (“Website”), and are an agreement between you and NVISO Group Limited, Parc Scientifique EPFL, PSE-D, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland (“Company”) (the Company and Website are collectively referenced as “we” or “us”).

No I won't be downraping, but I'm sure many will, and after every downramp I'm going to write your name to it

 

[Terroni2105]

Aren’t we involved with Both ?

No, they are two separate companies, we are working with one

edit: I think I could be wrong on this, they may be related

Hi All

I have finally been able to extract the following paragraph from the YPB link, an ASX listed company:

“NVISO through its wholly owned subsidiaries in Switzerland and Japan has existing agreements with global OEM brands such as Panasonic, and major global automakers. Their present applications include Consumer Robots, Gaming and Avatars, Healthcare Patient Monitoring, and Automotive Interior Sensing and is a pioneer in Artificial Intelligence (AI) with heavy investment and EU government support over its fourteen-year life. Nviso SA was founded in 2009 in Switzerland with operations in Japan and recently, as part of its management and Board changes, has its Corporate Headquarters in Australia under NVISO Group Limited.”

Not wishing to get into too much legalese but the above clearly forms part of the information relied upon by YPB to decide to enter the agreement with Nviso and pay Nviso $250,000.00.

This gives YPB if this information is materially incorrect grounds to rescind the agreement and claim damages.

In my opinion this paragraph adds much more weight to the importance that might otherwise attach to what could be described a marketing or promotional information direct from Nviso without any prejudice attaching.

Yep...would suggest they used the wrong logo

The link in our blurb takes you to the NVISO we already partnered with in the HMI environment whereas the other NVISO is cybersecurity.

These are the logos I recall from our existing partner. At least they are spelt right

Good work @Terroni2105

They changed it to the right logo.

Better late than never I guess.

BrainChip Tapes Out AKD1500 Chip in GlobalFoundries 22nm FD SOI Process

BrainChip tapes out the AKD1500 chip using GlobalFoundries' 22nm FD-SOI process, marking a significant milestone in AI chip development.

brainchip.com

The AKD1500 uses the latest features of BrainChip’s extremely energy-efficient, event-based, Akida™ AI IP in combination with the GlobalFoundries’ ultra-low leakage, proprietary FDX™ process technology platform, to deliver an ideal solution for always-on, at-sensor applications or other low-power embedded applications in AIoT, industrial, consumer and automotive markets.

In always-on, at-sensor use cases, Akida can completely offload feed-forward networks without the use of a CPU, which enables extremely energy efficient intelligent sensors. For other low-power embedded applications, the CPU solely performs sensor fusion processes or runs the application with Akida managing all the AI acceleration to significantly minimize CPU workload and system load, freeing up the MCU for other general-purpose computation.

The AKD1500 is designed as an accelerator reference chip, using quad/octal SPI interfaces for MCU modules and PCIe for extensible cards, which assists partners in developing and demonstrating their solutions as a stepping stone to integrating the Akida IP into their production SoCs.

Brainchip have a partnership with Tenstorrent?? Just because they were on our podcast doesn’t mean we have a partnership.

What the YPB ASX announcement doesn’t tell you, though, is that the original company NVISO SA, headquartered in the Swiss canton of Vaud/Waadt as well as its branch in the canton of Jura were declared bankrupt only six weeks later, on September 7, 2023!

Mmmhhh…

This is what I discovered, when trying to find out more about the NVISO Group:

Insolvenzeröffnung means opening of insolvency proceedings.

It then led me to the following documents published by the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce:

I recall a number of (since deleted) posts here on TSEx around the time when former CEO Tim Llewellyn got fired, but the bankruptcy proceedings four months ago have never been a discussion topic, as far as I can tell.

I strongly suspect that Sword of Damocles was the reason why the new legal construct of NVISO Group was formed, with corporate headquarters in Australia, shortly before the original company was liquidated in Switzerland. Maybe someone with knowledge in international business law can comment on the legality of such proceedings?

According to LinkedIn, NVISO has had a sales manager in Japan since 2019, so their presence there is not new.

What I find extremely weird is that neither NVISO’s website nor its LinkedIn post history mention anything at all about the company’s death and resurrection. As if nothing had happened.

However, I trust the Brainchip management is aware of all this, since they’ve been cooperating with NVISO all this time and would know more about what was going on behind the scenes, and we can only hope the newly registered company is financially healthy now.
