Edge Circuits and Systems

We explore how embedded AI can make future IoT systems smarter, more energy-efficient, and responsive to the physical world. 

The ever-increasing demand for computational requirements for emerging applications such as machine learning on the edge, low-power, sustainable, etc, have surpassed the capabilities of today’s computing technologies and in order to cater those application requirements, alternative or unconventional computing architectures and paradigms are essential. Therefore, our vision in this scope is to exploit biological devices and/or design bioinspired circuit architectures emerging technologies to develop next generation sensing and computing. We will invent, design, prototype and demonstrate the potential of such alternative computing and sensing technologies.
