"One example we wrote about two years ago is Brainchip’s Akida neuromorphic processor, for which development boards became available in December, 2020. Brainchip claims their devices use 90 to 99 percent less power than conventional CNN-based solutions. As far as we know, this is one of the first neuromorphic technologies to enter the broad commercial market, and the potential applications are vast. Brainchip provides both IP versions of their technology and SoCs with full implementations in silicon. Just about any system that can take advantage of “edge” AI could benefit from those kinds of power savings, and it will often make the difference between doing edge AI and not."
