Samsung uses brain-inspired processors to create digital camera 'vision'

Samsung has used IBM's neuromorphic computer processors, built under the latter company's TrueNorth project, to create digital 'eyes' that see in real time. The IBM TrueNorth processors are composed of 4096 small cores that simulate brain neurons, the primary advantage being faster data processing with lower comparative energy usage. Combined with Samsung's Dynamic Vision Sensor, the technology functions somewhat like a digital eye, perceiving the world by changing each pixel independently of ...
