About awarded research
Research topic: Ultra-low power AI chip for factory and construction automations
Tasks such as image recognition using machine learning require a large amount of computing power. With the impasse of "Moore's Law", cutting-edge semiconductor chips have become power consuming and costly. This has been a barrier to the widespread adoption of automation technologies that require large numbers of semiconductor chips. Lecturer Kosuge has developed a wired logic AI chip, that can execute AI algorithms two orders of magnitude faster and lower power than conventional CPUs and GPUs.
