The takeaway from this article or interview with Mike Davies of Intel regarding the status of the Loihi neuromorphic development program in my opinion can be condensed into the following points:
1. Loihi is up to 5 years from commercialisation;
2. Developing the software to support it is difficult and a lot more needs to be done;
3. The final version of Loihi will need to be simplified for wide spread use;
4. They have changed their focus and are concentrating on bringing Loihi technology to data centres; and
5. They are pushing hard to have Loihi adopted in space applications so that this success will have a trickle down effect to commercial applications on Earth.
Over the last several days I have posted the evidence supporting Brainchip's success in being adopted in various space and defence applications. The record shows that back on 23.12.20 Brainchip announced that NASA had joined its Early Access Program following which Brainchip was introduced to Vorago by NASA for the purpose of creating a Hardsil design for the AKD1000 to make it rad hard for deep space missions. NASA paid Brainchip $US50,000 to join the EAP program and Rayz tracked down and posted here all those years ago now proof of payment in this amount and NASA fully funded Vorago to undertake the Hardsil design which Vorago announced under its SBIR funding as having been successful. Interestingly when posting about this achievement the CEO of Vorago claimed that AKIDA would allow NASA to achieve its autonomous target speed for Rover of 20kph. Again this was found and posted here at the time.
We know and I have posted about it over the last few days that Brainchip is going to space with EDGX as part of the EDGX-1 Brain and that there is a European Space Agency part Sponsorship in place to assist EDGX. We also know that ANT61 and its partners which includes Amazon Web Services has an AKIDA powered Brain already in space as part of its satellite service and repair robot project. We also know that ISL and the Airforce Research Lab and a number of announced US Defence contractors such as Blue Ridge Envisioneering and Intellisense are working on projects which include AKIDA technology. We also know that Quantum Ventura has partnered with Brainchip, (following its successful trialling of AKIDA technology in a project to develop a handheld contraband detector for the US Homeland Security), for the Department of Energy under a fully funded SBIR an AKIDA technology cyber security system to protect essential infrastructure from attack.
Just on this cyber security question those who have been here since the beginning or who have done their research know that Peter van der Made has claimed from the outset that cyber security will be an area where AKIDA because of its ability to detect unseen repeating patterns will excel and that Peter van der Made has had significant success in the area of cyber security innovation early in his career.
Moving on however what the above appears to show is that Brainchip has had a similar approach to bringing about the adoption of AKIDA technology as that being undertaken by Intel to gain credibility by bringing about AKIDA's use in the harsh and remote environments that are encountered in outer space and defence applications.
As for the other four points above they are all addressed by Microchip Technology's Yann Le Faou Director of Touch MCU Products and Machine Learning from about 3 minutes on during the Brainchip CES 2024 podcast linked below;
If you have not listened yet it is overall a very interesting discussion which is only about five and a half minutes duration.
If you have not listened yet you may also be surprised to hear Yann Le Faou say that Microchip Technology is now ready to take their MCU and AKIDA technology to their customers to discuss the benefits of combining these technologies.
