The Road Ahead
De Salvo concluded her optimistic presentation about the future and potential of brain-inspired hardware, AI and edge computing by listing the technological challenges on the road to that goal. But she left the audience with one final prediction.
“New materials to interface devices with living cells and tissues, new design architectures for lowering power consumption, data extraction and management at the system level, and secured communications are the next domains that will experience intense development,” she said. “Brain-inspired implantable microdevices, acting as intelligent neuroprostheses, and bio-hybrid systems represent the new era of cross-disciplinary brain-repair strategies, where biological and engineered solutions will complement each other, probably mediated by artificial intelligence.”
