ASX Announcement
BrainChip Inc and Magik Eye Inc. Partner to Combine Best of AI
with 3D Sensing for Total 3D Vision Solution
Companies to jointly pursue market opportunities using BrainChip AI processor and
MagikEye 3D image sensor technology
_____________________________________________________________________________
Sydney, NSW Australia – 17 August 2020 – BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN), a leading
provider of ultra-low power high performance AI technology, today announced that it has partnered
with Magik Eye Inc., developers of revolutionary 3D sensors that change how machines see the
world, to market a breakthrough solution for object detection, object classification and gesture
recognition based on MagikEye’s Invertible Light™ 3D depth sensing technology and the AkidaTM
neuromorphic processor. This relationship opens a new and exciting gateway for BrainChip in
Japan. MagikEye’s Invertible Light provides the smallest, fastest and most power-efficient 3D
depth sensing. This is done using a standard CMOS image sensor and a regular dot projector
along with a proprietary and patented technique to produce 3D point cloud data. Coupled with the
Akida neuromorphic processor, the companies intend to jointly provide a total 3D vision solution to
customers for fast 3D object detection and recognition in applications, including robotics,
automotive and emerging consumer products, such as AR/VR and others. The MagikEye
technology addresses the need for devices to see clearly and understand the surrounding
environment, which is critical for new classes of 3D vision applications. The BrainChip Akida
neuromorphic processor efficiently utilizes AI to gather new insights from the 3D data.
“The combination of advanced neuromorphic processing with a low power 3D sensor is the perfect
solution for many products in end-point devices,” said Richard Wawrzyniak, Principal Analyst for
ASIC & SoC at Semico Research Corp.” 3D imaging is attracting great interest in the market today
and the BrainChip architecture, which delivers a power-efficient, scalable solution that enables
increased functionality with minimal impact on system cost and the power budget, is the right fit for
this class of applications. It is not surprising their solution would be paired with the MagikEye’s
Invertible Light Technology for real-time object detection in all types of applications, where low
power and high throughput are valued elements for success. Semico believes this technology
partnership is a winning combination for the market,” said Wawrzyniak.
BrainChip’s groundbreaking Akida neuromorphic processor is uniquely suited to provide the
analytics necessary for manufacturers to implement a complete 3D vision system. With ultra-low
power and the ability to directly process the 3D image generated by the MagikEye sensor, the
companies can jointly address gesture recognition in Smart Home applications, such as gaming
and other consumer products. Smart Transportation and Smart City applications are additional
primary markets for collaboration. This includes Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and
Autonomous Vehicles (AV).
“By combining the strengths of BrainChip’s Neural Network capabilities with MagikEye’s Invertible
Light, we are excited about the game-changing benefits that customers will experience, in terms of
a total 3D vision solution for robotics, machine vision and many other new applications,” said
Takeo Miyazawa, MagikEye, founder and CEO.
“Our relationship with MagikEye is exciting,” said Louis DiNardo, BrainChip CEO. “The innovation
brought to the market by their proprietary Invertible Light technology is impressive and this
collaboration provides both companies an opportunity to address large and growing markets with
outstanding technology to solve difficult real-world challenges.”
Other particulars:
This partnership is for one year and can be extended by mutual consent of the parties. It starts
with joint marketing services to promote compatibility that could lead to customers for each
company. The agreement does not define any material conditions that need to be satisfied by
either company.
This announcement is authorised for release by the BRN Board of Directors.
