Supercomputers are extremely fast, but also use a lot of power. Neuromorphic computing, which takes our brain as a model to build fast and energy-efficient computers, can offer a viable and much-needed alternative. The technology has a wealth of opportunities, for example in autonomous driving, interpreting medical images, edge AI or long-haul optical communications. Electrical engineer Patty Stabile is a pioneer when it comes to exploring new brain- and biology-inspired computing paradigms. "TU/e combines all it takes to demonstrate the possibilities of photon-based neuromorphic computing for AI applications."
