ULPEC.
The goal of ULPEC is to demonstrate a microsystem that is natively brain-inspired, connecting an event-based camera to a dedicated spiking neural network enabled by memristive synapses. The memristive synapses of the neural network are based on ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJ).
highlights
As TSST, we develop and deliver functional memristor devices on silicon wafers based on these ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs), ready for flip chip integration with CMOS. The targeted user case for ULPEC technologies is the vision and recognition of traffic events (signs, obstacles like other cars, persons, etc.) which are part of the major disruption of autonomous and computer assisted driving in the transport and car manufacturing industry.
