and many more judging by the closing paragraph in the GRANTED PATENT

The present invention has advantages over existing solution for speech recognition as the spiking neural adaptive processor is hardware based architecture rather than software based architecture. The system is configured to reject background noise by selectively rejecting certain bandwidths of an input voice signal within the artificial cochlea. Further, the system is a hard wired digital logic circuit running at a low clock speed, thereby allowing aggressive voltage scaling of the supply to minimize power consumption. The chip or processor makes itself useful in certain situations as they use a layered structure of neural network. For an instance, the present invention do not separate computation and memory, thus the information is stored in synaptic strength resulting in faster performance utilizing less power. In an embodiment of the present invention, the system can be used in commercial or industrial application, control and navigation, voice dialing, medical, military, aerospace, court reporting, home automation, hands free computation, automatic translation, mobile telephony, including mobile email, interactive voice response, speech-to-text reporter, telematics, multimodal interaction, transcription, robotics, video games and the like.
