Our take
Innatera is a company developing ultra-low-power neuromorphic AI chips for sensor technology. Essentially, this means it is trying to instil sensors with a human-like ability to perceive their surroundings, by mimicking the mechanisms that the brain uses for sensory perception.
Sensors powered by Innatera's tech should be able to enact real-time analysis of data to detect and identify embedded patterns. For example, they would be able to distinguish spoken words in audio data. This, of course, represents an impressive development and the next generation of sensors.
Another impressive feat is that Innatera's chips require very little power, which is why they can be employed at the sensor edge. With a myriad of potential applications, it's no surprise the company has raised substantial funding which will be used to accelerate its progress and drive further innovation.
