The Neurogrid is 9 thousands of times faster than a PC and revolutionizes many areas.
Ερευνητές στις ΗΠΑ ανέπτυξαν ένα ολοκληρωμένο κύκλωμα που μιμείται τον τρόπο λειτουργίας του ανθρώπινου εγκεφάλου. Το κύκλωμα αυτό επεξεργάζεται εννέα χιλιάδες φορές πιο γρήγορα τα data than the integrated circuits of a conventional computer and naturally surpasses the performance of very advanced computing systems.

The revolutionary integrated circuit was created by researchers at Stanford University and called it "Neurogrid"That is, a neuron matrix. The circuit has a size similar to that of an iPad and consists of 16 chips that the researchers call "Neurocore" (core neuron). Neurogrid can simulate the functioning of a million neurons and billions of synapses.
The capabilities of Neurogrid far exceed other electronic systems that mimic brain function. The creation of Neurogrid is expected to revolutionize the fields of robotics and computers. It is also likely to allow scientists to understand more better brain function.
A first application of the Neurogrid that the research team that created it is working on is a new generation of prosthetic limbs. These organs will work with chips that will decode brain signals more quickly and efficiently without side effects, such as for example overheating the brain.
