King's engineers to explore brain-inspired computing in 6G telecommunications​

Neuromorphic computing holds significant potential for faster and greener telecommunications technologies.

Neurones


Two King’s engineers will lead a project aimed at developing computing technology inspired by the human brain for wireless communications.
Funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in the United States, the research will enable quicker and more energy efficient computing and telecommunications and allow better integration of AI into wireless communications. This could revolutionise the field of mobile healthcare, telecommunications and robotics.

Professor Osvaldo Simeone and Dr Bipin Rajendran from the Department of Engineering, alongside Professor Vincent Poor from Princeton University, will explore how brain-inspired or neuromorphic computing can be used in the transfer of information via telecommunications networks, serving as the basis for the emergence of new services in 6G networks.

"The global 5G rollout marks a shift in telecom systems, which are transforming in order to cater to the transmission of intelligence between machines."
Professor Simeone

Professor Simeone said:
"The global 5G rollout marks a shift in telecom systems, which are transforming in order to cater to the transmission of intelligence between machines."
“Conventional communications systems are designed to serve as generic bit pipes, transmitting and storing information in bits. This makes it impossible for existing telecommunication networks to adapt to new situations and to tailor their resource consumption to the semantics of the information being exchanged between end points.”

Dr Rajendran added:
“Neuromorphic systems are designed to emulate the behaviour of neural networks in the brain. Using Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), a type of neural network model, neuromorphic technology transmits information through the occurrence of spikes."

"Neurons in SNNs gather signals over time and send out a spike when a certain threshold is reached. This way, SNNs allow for event-driven and efficient computations, as information is processed only when needed.”

Neuromorphic systems are designed to emulate the behaviour of neural networks in the brain. Using Spiking Neural Networks...neuromorphic technology transmits information through the occurrence of spikes...[allowing] for event-driven and efficient computations, as information is processed only when needed.”
Dr Rajendran

Unlike traditional computers, neuromorphic technology can learn and adapt in real-time. Another significant advantage of neuromorphic computing, according to the researchers, is its energy efficiency. These two features make the integration of neuromorphic computing and telecommunications particularly promising, enabling the use of sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) tools on mobile devices and systems, providing enhanced services and adapting to user needs.

To develop this cutting-edge technology, Professor Simeone and Dr Rajendran will work with world-leading industrial partners, including Intel Labs, NVIDIA, and AccelerComm. King’s researchers will use their expertise to explore the fundamental principles, algorithms and hardware co-design of neuromorphic communications.

Again it seems that BRN is ignored in leui of bigger players, despite supposedly having the commercial technology already figured out. Unless of course Intel Labs gives us a shoe-in but more likely they will leverage off our ideas for all of the accolades.

I begin to wonder if our company is ruthless enough to succeed in the competitive tech world or if they're just gleefully showing everyone, including our competitors how good our tech is without driving home the advantage.

Expanding the Use Cases for Event-Based Vision Systems

Presentation will begin: Wednesday, July 19, 2023 - 12:30 PM EDT
Presented by: Luca Verre, Prophesee

While the concept of neuromorphic-enabled event cameras isn’t new, the last few years have seen a significant pick up in the adoption of this technology. This is due, in part, to the progress made by sensor companies in improving sensor performance, size, and power. Additionally, several industries have leveraged the benefits of these sensors and software for machine vision systems that can capture and analyze visual data more efficiently.

Event cameras have fundamental benefits in terms of efficiency, speed, and dynamic range. Event-based vision sensors can achieve better speed versus power consumption trade-offs. By relying on a different way of acquiring information compared with a conventional camera, they also address applications in the field of machine vision and AI.

These benefits, driven by an escalation in the volume and complexity of visual data processing in many types of applications, from industrial to transportation to consumer and mobile, have fueled interest in this technology. This in turn has ignited a proliferation of development activity and experimentation, spurred on by Open-Source initiatives and more advanced development kits and tools from some of the early providers of event cameras.

Event-based vision can no longer just be viewed as an approach for industrial vision systems such as robotics, inspection, and predictive maintenance, although this remains the largest market. The technology has been used to explore the outer reaches of the solar system, help restore sight to the visually impaired, and identify gene sequences in advanced scientific research. Event cameras are also now making inroads into more consumer-facing applications such as mobile phones, cars, wearables, and AR/VR systems, which is significant from a market growth standpoint.

This talk looks at the current state of neuromorphic-enabled vision systems and provides a glimpse into a future where the systems can allow for more efficient and helpful vision-enabled purposes across all aspects of life.

Apologies if already posted.
Valeo wins best sensors 2023 for its SCALA 3 LIDAR. I have just found the below article published a couple pf days ago.

I really liked

"Valeo SCALA 3 is more than hardware. It comes with a suite of software modules that includes algorithms for both artificial intelligence and perception. The AI system collects data from the LiDAR sensors and analyzes them in real-time, enabling the SCALA 3 to direct an automobile's trajectory and predict clear paths on the road ahead."

and

"Valeo's SCALA 3 LiDAR has already been chosen by a leading American robotaxi company and a leading Asian automobile manufacturer and has registered orders worth over 1 billion Euros."
