Neuromorphic processor pairs with Microchip MPU
BrainChip will demonstrate its Akida neuromorphic processor enabled by Microchip’s embedded 32-bit processor boards at next week’s CES 2024 trade show. The company will display the ability of Akida, running on Microchip’s SAMx71 Ultra and SAMA7G54-EK boards, to perform always-on machine learning tasks, such as keyword spotting and visual wake words.
Keyword spotting leverages neural networks to recognize keywords, like “Hey Siri.” Visual wake word detection classifies the presence of individuals in images for such applications as in-home security and smart doorbells.
“We look forward to demonstrating the potential and ease of integrating Akida for always-on machine learning applications on embedded devices at CES,” said Rob Telson, VP of Ecosystem and Partnerships at BrainChip. “By combining our innovative neuromorphic processor and models with Microchip’s high-performance MPUs and boards, you can deliver compelling solutions to the market to serve the rapidly growing demand for TinyML at the edge.”
Rod Drake, corporate VP of Microchip’s MPU32 and MCU32 business units, added, “In this collaborative showcase with BrainChip, we will illustrate how our customers can leverage the advantages of next-generation AI to enable low-power, high-performance machine learning applications on our embedded platforms.”
