Neuromorphic AI Powers Efficient, Autonomous Drone Flight
Summary: Researchers developed a drone that flies autonomously using neuromorphic image processing, mimicking animal brains. This method significantly improves data processing speed and energy efficiency compared to traditional GPUs.
The study highlights the potential for tiny, agile drones for various applications. The neuromorphic approach allows the drone to process data up to 64 times faster while consuming three times less energy.
