Term of the Moment
32-bit computing
Redirected from: neuromorphic engineering
Definition: neuromorphic computing
Using computers designed to mimic the human brain. Neuromorphic computing differs from neural engines, which are all digital circuits and widely incorporated into everyday devices such as smartphones. Neuromorphic designs imply analog circuits as well as digital. See neural processing unit.
Intel's Neuromorphic Chips
The director of Intel Labs, Dr. Rich Uhlig, is holding a Nahuku board, which can contain from eight to 32 of Intel's Loihi neuromorphic chips. Several Nahuku boards make up the Pohoiki Beach neuromorphic system. (Image courtesy of Intel Corporation.)
