Tharak Krishnan, Director of Product Management at BrainChip, demonstrates the AKD1500 — BrainChip’s ultra-low power Edge AI Co-Processor — at the 2026 Embedded Vision Summit. Already deployed in real-world applications such as epileptic seizure prediction and drowning swimmer detection, the AKD1500 is purpose-built for use cases where power consumption and battery life are critical constraints. Its support for multiple form factors makes it adaptable across a wide range of edge deployments.
Krishnan showcases a live person detection demo running on the AKD1500 M.2 card at just 300mW — a fraction of the power draw of competing solutions — highlighting how effortlessly the chip can be deployed at the edge without sacrificing performance.
