Western Australian venture building company Strategic Elements (SOR) has announced its printable Nanocube Memory technology has potential as brain-inspired computing hardware.
Research at the University of New South Wales confirmed that the Nanocube Memory’s structure and operation allows it to combine computing and memory in one place, similar to how biological neurons operate.
The artificial synapses created using the Nanocube Memory technology can provide a potential hardware solution that combines data storage and processing abilities, which is key to brain-inspired neuromorphic computing.
The technology has the potential to store a range of values, allowing it to mimic the way the strength of a connection between two biological synapses can vary, in order to allow the brain-based system to achieve self-learning.
With the ability to store and process data within the same component, which will reduce time delays and power consumption, the hardware could potentially enable neuromorphic hardware to emulate the high processing ability of the human brain with low energy consumption.
Further early-stage work on features such as stability, potentiation, depression, latency and power requirements will continue in 2021.
Strategic Elements operates as a ‘venture builder’ where it generates high risk, high reward ventures and projects from combining teams of leading scientists or innovators in the technology or resources sectors.
Investors in Strategic Elements potentially pay no tax on capital gains from selling their SOR shares, as the company operates under a Federal Government program set up to encourage investment into innovation.
Strategic Elements is up 6.45 per cent, trading at 16.5 cents per share at 9:40 am AEDT.
