Final Project

Overview

Modern AI systems face a critical energy constraint, so they either rely on cloud processing (creating latency and privacy concerns) or drain batteries quickly with on-device computation.

During the scope of Fab Academy, I'm exploring the fundementals of neuromorphic computing systems that could develop into a later, more robust solution for that issue. My target is to design and fabricatecustom brain-inspired circuit boards that use event-based processing to visualize how neurons work and use brain-inspired software processing within different applicaions.

Right now, I'm exploring different applications for these neuromorphic/neuromorphic-like circuits from robotics to AR/XR systems to brain-computer interfaces, while learning about their capabilities and constraints through hands-on development at Fab Academy.

Throughout the program, I'll be developing, refining, and documenting the complete journey from initial concept to final fabrication.

Project Goals

  • Apply the skills I learn throughout Fab Academy.
  • Explore the intersection between computing and neuroscience through building a real-world application of neuromorphic systems fundementals.
  • Learn to integrate multidisciplinary skills and knowledge to accomplish a certain goal.
  • Share the journey of building such a project with the community.

Timeline

Updates will be added throughout the Fab Academy program as the project develops from concept to completion.
