Business Wire
BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), a
leading provider of ultra-low power, high performance artificial
intelligence technology and the world’s first commercial producer
of neuromorphic AI chips and IP, today announced that Information
Systems Laboratories, Inc. (ISL) is developing an AI-based radar
research solution for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL)
based on its Akida™ neural networking processor.
ISL is an employee-owned technology development corporation that
performs expert research and complex analysis, software and systems
engineering, advanced hardware design and development, and
high-quality specialty fabrication for a variety of customers
worldwide. ISL specializes in the areas of advanced signal
processing, space exploration, undersea technologies, surveillance
and tracking, cyber security, advanced radar systems, and energy
independence. As a member of BrainChip’s Early Access Program, ISL
will be able to evaluate boards with the Akida device, software and
hardware support and dedicated engineering resources.
“As part of BrainChip’s EAP, we’ve had the opportunity to
evaluate firsthand the capabilities that Akida provides to the AI
ecosystem,” said Jamie Bergin, Senior VP, Manager of Research,
Development and Engineering Solutions Division at ISL.
BrainChip brings AI to the edge in a way that existing
technologies are not capable. The Akida processor is ultra-low
power with high performance, supporting the growth of edge AI
technology by using a neuromorphic architecture, a type of
artificial intelligence that is inspired by the biology of the
human brain. Devices currently available to BrainChip’s EAP
customers provide partners with capabilities to realize significant
gains in power consumption, design flexibility and true learning at
the Edge.
“ISL has decided to use Akida and Edge-based learning as a tool
to incorporate into their portfolio of research engineering and
engineering solutions in large part due to our innovative
capabilities and production-ready status that provides go-to-market
advantages,” said Sean Hehir, BrainChip CEO. “We are pleased to be
included as the AI- and Edge-based learning component of ISL’s
research sponsored by AFRL. We feel that the combination of
technologies will help expedite its deployment into the field.”
Akida is currently available now to be licensed as IP, as well
as available for orders for production release in silicon. Its
focus is on low power and high-performance, enabling sensory
processing, for applications in Beneficial AI, as well as
applications including Smart Healthcare, Smart Cities, Smart
Transportation and Smart Home. Those interested in learning how
BrainChip has solved the problems inherent in moving AI out of the
data center to the Edge where data is created can visit

About BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR:
BCHPY)
BrainChip is a global technology company that is producing a
groundbreaking neuromorphic processor that brings artificial
intelligence to the edge in a way that is beyond the capabilities
of other products. The chip is high performance, small, ultra-low
power and enables a wide array of edge capabilities that include
on-chip training, learning and inference. The event-based neural
network processor is inspired by the spiking nature of the human
brain and is implemented in an industry standard digital process.
By mimicking brain processing BrainChip has pioneered a processing
architecture, called Akida™, which is both scalable and flexible to
address the requirements in edge devices. At the edge, sensor
inputs are analyzed at the point of acquisition rather than through
transmission via the cloud to a data center. Akida is designed to
provide a complete ultra-low power and fast AI Edge Network for
vision, audio, olfactory and smart transducer applications. The
reduction in system latency provides faster response and a more
power efficient system that can reduce the large carbon footprint
of data centers.
About AFRL and AFWERX
AFRL and AFWERX have partnered to streamline the Small Business
Innovation Research process in an attempt to speed up the
experience, broaden the pool of potential applicants and decrease
bureaucratic overhead. Beginning in SBIR 18.2, and now in
J203-CS01, the Air Force has begun offering 'The Open Topic'
SBIR/STTR program that is faster, leaner and open to a broader
range of innovations.
