BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the
world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully
digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI, today announced that it was
awarded a development contract for $1.8M from Air Force Research
Laboratory (AFRL) on neuromorphic radar signaling processing
technologies.
The AFRL contract award, under the topic number AF242-D015, is
titled “Mapping Complex Sensor Signal Processing Algorithms onto
Neuromorphic Chips”. The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR)
contract is a development effort expansion after a successful
demonstration of radar processing algorithms running on BrainChip’s
Akida™ commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) neuromorphic hardware. The
signal processing algorithms encompass the processing of RF signals
to decode communication and radar waveforms from raw in-phase and
quadrature data.
BrainChip’s Akida processor is a revolutionary computing
architecture that processes neural networks and machine learning
algorithms at ultra-low power consumption, making it ideal for edge
computing applications. The company’s neuromorphic technology
improves the cognitive communication capabilities on size, weight
and power & cost (SWaP-C) constrained platforms such as
military, spacecraft and robotics for commercial and government
markets.
Neuromorphic hardware represents a low-power solution for edge
AI processing, consuming significantly less energy than traditional
computing hardware for signal processing and identification using
artificial intelligence. This project intends to validate a new
capability to embed sophisticated radar processing solutions in
SWaP-C constrained radar platforms utilized in a wide variety of
systems, including threat detection, air defense and guidance use
cases in stationery and more importantly in mobile platforms such
as drones, robots, aircraft, satellites and projectile based
defense systems that have severe SWaP-C constraints.
“Radar signaling processing will be implemented on multiple
airborne and mobile platforms, so minimizing system SWaP-C is
critical,” said Sean Hehir, CEO of BrainChip. “The contract to
improve radar signaling applications for Air Force Research
Laboratory highlights how neuromorphic computing can achieve
significant benefits of low-power, high-performance compute in the
most mission-critical use cases. This award is a very strong
endorsement from leading organizations such as AFRL for our
groundbreaking Akida hardware and state-space AI models using
Temporal Enabled Neural Network (TENNs) model offerings.”
About BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR:
BCHPY) BrainChip is the worldwide leader in Edge AI on-chip
processing and learning. The company’s first-to-market, fully
digital, event-based AI processor, Akida™, uses neuromorphic
principles to mimic the human brain, analyzing only essential
sensor inputs at the point of acquisition, processing data with
unparalleled efficiency, precision, and economy of energy. Akida
uniquely enables Edge learning within the chip, independent of the
cloud, dramatically reducing latency while improving privacy and
data security. Akida Neural processor IP, which can be integrated
into SoCs on any process technology, has shown substantial benefits
on today’s workloads and networks, particularly in combination with
our industry leading state-space model TENNs to offer a platform
for developers to create, tune and run their models using standard
AI workflows like Tensorflow/Keras. In enabling effective Edge AI
computing to be universally deployable across real world
applications such as connected cars, consumer electronics, and
industrial IoT, BrainChip is proving that on-chip AI, close to the
sensor, is the future, for its customers’ products, as well as the
planet. Explore the benefits of Essential AI at
