The Technology Behind Streaming AI
on a Fraction of the Power
BrainChip’s AkidaTM processor IP uses sparsity to focus on the most important data, inherently avoiding unnecessary computation and saving energy at every step.
BrainChip’s Neural Network Model, Temporal Event-based Neural Networks (TENNsTM), builds on a state-space model architecture to track events over time instead of sampling at fixed intervals, skipping periods of no change to save energy and memory.
Together, they deliver unmatched efficiency for real-time AI.
