“The neural computing revolution is upon us” says Graham Templeton from Computers-Inverse magazine. In his article, Mr. Templeton reviews the on-going research projects from leaders of the semiconductor industry including IBM, QualComm and Intel, and makes us the honor to mention General Vision too.
“A company called General Vision has been selling a very forward-thinking “NeuroMem” technology that can’t rival the sheer power of IBM’s research, but which is actually available to industry, and now even consumers. Its built-in pattern-matching abilities are meant mostly for fitness and other “quantified self” apps, but the applications could be much wider; Intel also licensed the tech to add a bit of neuromorphic juice to its teeny-tiny Curie Module, which will spread the technology further than ever. There’s even an Arduino with one in there!”
General Vision’s chief executive talks about why there is such renewed interest in this technology and how it will be used in the future. read the full article at “Inside NeuroMorphic Computing“
Pisces Fish Machinery Inc. has developed and sold over 50 smart cameras powered by NeuroMem neurons to inspect fishes directly on the fileting lines on-board of fishing vessels. At the beginning of a new expedition, the fishermen perform the training of the neurons through a simple touch screen interface. The camera inspects 6 fishes per second with 98% accuracy and as a result the crew can be reduced leaving more storage space for the catch.
The Advanced Numerical Research and Analysis Group of the Defense R&D Organization of India demonstrates that the NeuroMem neurons outperform other hardware solutions to recognize faces. Their research project and conclusions are supported by two white papers and a board development featuring the NeuroMem IP installed on a Xilinx FPGA.
