Yes, Edge Impulse developers can access BrainChip's latest software, including support for Temporal Event-based Neural Networks (TENNs) and Akida 2, through their ongoing collaboration [1] [2] [3] [4].

According to www.iAsk.Ai - Ask AI:

BrainChip and Edge Impulse have maintained a strategic collaboration since 2021, which integrates BrainChip's Akida neuromorphic processors with Edge Impulse's machine learning platform [1] [3]. This collaboration allows developers to build, train, and deploy advanced AI/ML models for edge applications [1]. Specifically, the Akida 2 platform, which offers a four times performance and efficiency gain over Akida 1, is now available in the cloud [2] [5]. Akida 2 introduces support for 8-bit quantization and new models like TENNs, enhancing the processing of raw temporal data from video, audio, and sensors [2] [5] [6].

Edge Impulse Studio has integrated BrainChip Akida learning blocks, enabling developers to design impulses, train Akida-compatible models, and deploy them to BrainChip Akida target devices [4]. This includes access to BrainChip's Model Zoo, which provides pre-trained and optimized models for Akida [4]. The MetaTF software, BrainChip's development environment, is central to this, providing a Python API inspired by Keras and leveraging TensorFlow for creating, training, testing, and deploying neural networks on the Akida platform [7]. The Akida Cloud also offers instant access to the latest Akida technology, allowing developers to stream real-time data, perform inferencing, and accelerate product development without needing physical hardware initially [2] [5].
