BrainChip and Lorser Industries to develop neuromorphic computing systems for software-defined radio devices

LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., June 04, 2023–(BUSINESS WIRE)–BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), a global leader in neuromorphic artificial intelligence (AI) intellectual property, and Lorser Industries Inc., a leading provider of services to system level manufacturing and integration, today announced that the companies will use Akida’s BrainChips technology to provide neuromorphic computing solutions for software-defined radio (SDR) devices.

The partnership will leverage Lorser’s expertise in SDR design and manufacturing and BrainChip’s cutting-edge neuromorphic technology to create innovative and intelligent solutions that improve the adaptability, reliability and scalability of SDR devices.

In addition to sending and receiving shortwave and radio broadcasts around the world, SDR is an asset in astronomy, aerospace, geography, oceanography, navigation, and logistics. Akidas neural network processing enables SDR devices to perform advanced tasks such as signal detection, classification, modulation/demodulation, encryption/decryption, and detect anomalies in signal or acoustic data with AI and machine learning (ML).

“We believe the neuromorphic computing is the future of AI/ML, and an SDR with neuromorphic AI/ML capabilities will offer users significantly greater functionality, flexibility and efficiency,” said Diane Serban, CEO of Lorser Industries. “The Akida processor and IP is an ideal fit for SDR devices due to its low power consumption, high performance and, importantly, its ability to learn on-chip after field deployment.”

“BrainChip and Lorser share a common interest in building intelligent devices that can handle communication in a variety of diverse and evolving environments,” said Rob Telson, BrainChip’s vice president of ecosystems & partnerships. “Lorser, with its leadership in advanced SDR technology, is the ideal partner to work with on a revolutionary device with the ability to use AI/ML to identify patterns, detect anomalies, and intelligently adapt to a broad range of scenarios.”

Akida powers next-generation edge AI in a diverse range of industrial, home, automotive, and scientific environments. The fully digital, customizable, event-driven AI neural processor and IP is ideal for advanced AI/ML such as smart sensors, extended battery life medical devices, high-end video object detection, and ADAS/autonomous systems. Akida’s neuromorphic architecture is capable of real-time on-chip learning and limits power consumption to microwatt to milliwatt ranges, making it ideal for low-power, high-efficiency applications. BrainChip is actively developing the essential AI ecosystem of collaborative partners – best-in-class semiconductors, software, and commercialization leaders, who jointly demonstrate interoperability, functionality, and vertical value.
