Brain-inspired electronic devices
We create electronic memory cells and components that mimic functionality of different aspects of the human central nervous system.
We design, fabricate, and characterise devices from mimicking firing between neurons to creating neuro-inspired logic circuits to artificial skin receptors to sense pressure, temperature, and pain.
This creates a platform for brain-inspired artificial intelligence hardware and to enable skin-like feedback when combined with stretchable circuits.
