In a company press release, Innatera announced its Pulsar neuromorphic microcontroller earned Best-in-Show in the Microcontrollers, Microprocessors & IP category at COMPUTEX 2025 by Embedded Computing Design. The honor identifies Pulsar’s innovative utilization of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) to enable real-time, ultra-efficient edge AI.​

“We’re thrilled to receive this award,” says Sumeet Kumar, CEO, Innatera. “It’s a powerful validation, not just of the years of work our team has put into neuromorphic computing, but of the immense potential this technology holds. Pulsar is about making intelligence accessible at the edge, and this recognition highlights a broader shift across the industry toward smarter, more sustainable AI.”

According to Innatera, its Spiking Neural Processor (SNP) Pulsar is the world’s first mass-market neuromorphic microcontroller purpose-built to deliver intelligence directly to the sensor edge. Applying Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), Pulsar allows real-time, ultra-low-power AI processing within compact form factors, nullifying the need for cloud connectivity.

It combines neuromorphic processing, a RISC-V core, and accelerators for CNN and signal processing ideal for wearables, smart sensors, and edge systems.

“Pulsar from Innatera impressed our board of judges with its focus on bringing intelligence to the edge, reducing latency, improving power efficiency, and enabling real field applications,” says Ken Briodagh, Editor in Chief of Embedded Computing Design. “The Best in Show awards look for innovation and forward-thinking technical engineering, and Pulsar certainly fits the bill with this neuromorphic step forward.”

I believe this is definitely a good thing, as stated by their CEO "this recognition highlights a broader shift across the industry toward smarter, more sustainable AI."

It shows neuromorphic computing is getting noticed more and more. As neuromorphic computing evolves, there's naturally going to be more competition for Brainchip, which is a healthy sign.

As each company who are involved in neuromorphic computing are competitors, they will be looking to push the boundaries even further to gain that lead and bigger slice, which should hopefully lead to the next stage in the AI revolution and world domination.

Hi SharesForBrekky,

The real concern is that Innatera is now firmly in the spotlight with its neuromorphic product having been awarded “Best in Show.”

From what I can see, BrainChip didn’t even attend COMPUTEX 2025 - which is surprising, given it’s one of the world’s leading technology exhibitions, drawing nearly 1,400 exhibitors and over 86,000 attendees from 152 countries.

In my view, this was a major missed opportunity. Now everyone who attended the event, from media to potential partners, will have taken notice of their achievement.

Honestly, it’s getting hard to watch.
While other companies are out there signing real deals, winning awards, and showing up in official datasheets, BrainChip is still busy declaring itself a “leader in Edge AI.” Self-proclaimed greatness...

Meanwhile, we’re stuck guessing whether Akida might possibly be hiding somewhere in some secret chip… because apparently, nobody is allowed to just say it outright. That’s our big win? Speculation?

Week by week, the dream that we found an undiscovered diamond is turning into the realization that we’re just holding a shiny rock.

Here’s what we actually need in the coming weeks:
1.Real customers. Signed deals. Not NDAs – contracts.
2.Revenue. You know, money. The thing businesses need.
3.Proof that Akida works outside of PowerPoint slides.
4. ..I leave it to you..

And here’s what we really don’t need any more of:
-Another buzzword-filled presentation for the faithful
-Another “I’m excited” post from an academic on LinkedIn
-Another glowing brain animation that looks cool but pays zero bills

Hope is not a strategy. Neither is pretending everything’s fine.
We’re out of excuses – it’s time to deliver.

Agreed, and we even have a Taiwanese employee living there?

Our German guy often present around Europe, so why not this guy in Asia?

Pretty sloppy if you ask me!

I agree it's a missed opportunity as that is one major event. However, unfortunately Brainchip can't be everywhere.

On the other hand, Brainchip also has their ever-growing ecosystem. If there's a number of partners/customers there showing off what they've got using Brainchip's technology, then that's just another angle they can gain exposure.

That's all good S4B, but that needs the said company giving us recognition. Doesn't always pan out that way.

I really want to stay positive on brain chip but
In all honesty so far all I see is window dressing
Which is really nice but we need something solid real coins to flow into the company.

Please please BrainChip get the bath filled, put the plug in and throw in some bubbles

From over at crapper


I think they are relying upon the fact that they are selling hardware not IP.

Brainchip’s AKIDA Pico is IP not a chip.

The thing is Innatera are using RISC-V and are going it alone into the market.

Brainchip is co partnered for RISC-V with Andes Technology the dominant player with 30% of the RISC-V market. Brainchip is also partnered with SiFive for RISC-V.

As to comparisons of the two technologies:

1. They both offer sub 1 milliwatt performance.

2. Pico however does everything that Innatera does but adds:

a) The ability to run noise cancellation SSM
b) The ability to run intelligent single purpose SSMs for communicating with white goods - human machine interphase
c) Continuous on device learning
d) Ability to be retrained or add additional classes
on device during deployment
e) The ability to add extra nodes if more intelligence is required
f) The ability to add extra memory to meet customer requirements

As to why Brainchip was not at this event they are at events in that region hosted by their partner Andes Technology.

Awards are nice but Brainchip won very significant awards with Studio and Accelerator but they did not ensure commercial product success.

My opinion only DYOR
