Sunny discusses neuromorphic chips with to the Vice President of Global Research Operations and Program Manager at SynSense, Dr Dylan Muir. They discuss the company’s products for low-power vision and other sensor processing – including Speck, Xylo, and Rockpool – some of the design choices that were made to bring these to market, and their recent acquisition of sister company IniVation. Discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph.
