Korean researchers have developed an AI chip that can recognize objects just like the human eye.<br />The small, high-performance chip is expected to be used in surveillance cameras and drones.<br />Park Se-young has more. <br /> This artificial intelligence chip with visual functions can recognize everyday objects.<br />Korean researchers have successfully created a visual intelligence chip modeled after the human brain by dramatically improving its calculation efficiency.<br /><br /> "The technology that can recognize and locate objects can now be applied to machines and devices."<br /><br /> The five-millimeter chip's neural operation speed has been improved ten-fold, …while its energy usage has been reduced to one one-hundredth of the previous system.<br />Chips using existing software can only recognize one object per second, but the new chip is capable of 33 object recognitions per second.<br />The low power technology means the chip can be immediately used in smartphones and surveillance cameras …without changing their existing structures.<br /><br /> "We've secured the technology for installing semiconductors capable of AI computing into moving objects like self-driving cars or drones."<br /><br /> The technology, which can efficiently locate specific objects or people, is expected to speed the commercialization of visual intelligence.<br />Park Se-young, Arirang News. <br />
