Business Wire
BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the
world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully
digital, event-based, brain-inspired AI, today introduced the
Akida™ Pico, the lowest power acceleration co-processor that
enables the creation of very compact, ultra-low power, portable and
intelligent devices for wearable and sensor integrated AI into
consumer, healthcare, IoT, defense and wake-up applications.
Akida Pico accelerates limited use case-specific neural network
models to create an ultra-energy efficient, purely digital
architecture. Akida Pico enables secure personalization for
applications including voice wake detection, keyword spotting,
speech noise reduction, audio enhancement, presence detection,
personal voice assistant, automatic doorbell, wearable AI,
appliance voice interfaces and more.
The latest innovation from BrainChip is built on the Akida2
event-based computing platform configuration engine, which can
execute with power suitable for battery-powered operation of less
than a single milliwatt. Akida Pico provides power-efficient
footprint for waking up microcontrollers or larger system
processors, with a neural network to filter out false alarms to
preserve power consumption until an event is detected. It is
ideally suited for sensor hubs or systems that need to be monitored
continuously using only battery power with occasional need for
additional processing from a host.
BrainChip’s exclusive MetaTF™ software flow enables developers
to compile and optimize their specific Temporal-Enabled Neural
Networks (TENNs) on the Akida Pico. With MetaTF’s support for
models created with TensorFlow/Keras and Pytorch, users avoid
needing to learn a new machine language framework while rapidly
developing and deploying AI applications for the Edge.
Among the benefits of Akida Pico are:
- Ultra-low power standalone NPU core (<1mW)
- Support power islands for minimal standby power
- Industry-standard development environment
- Very Small logic die area
- Optimize overall die size with configurable data buffer and
model parameter memory
“Like all of our Edge AI enablement platforms, Akida Pico was
developed to further push the limits of AI on-chip compute with low
latency and low power required of neural applications,” said Sean
Hehir, CEO at BrainChip. “Whether you have limited AI expertise or
are an expert at developing AI models and applications, Akida Pico
and the Akida Development Platform provides users with the ability
to create, train and test the most power and memory efficient
temporal-event based neural networks quicker and more
reliably.”
BrainChip’s Akida is an event-based compute platform ideal for
early detection, low-latency solutions without massive compute
resources for robotics, drones, automotive and traditional
sense-detect-classify-track solutions. BrainChip provides a range
of software, hardware and IP products that can be integrated into
existing and future designs, with a roadmap for customers to deploy
multi-modal AI models at the edge.
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 principles that 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 local to 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, and offers a platform for developers to
create, tune and run their models using standard AI workflows like
Tensorflow/Keras. In enabling effective Edge compute 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
