Femtosense is a Silicon Valley-based startup founded in 2018 by researchers from Stanford University's Brains in Silicon Lab. The company has developed a unique AI accelerator, the Sparse Processing Unit (SPU), inspired by neuromorphic computing principles like sparsity. This technology enables higher performance, lower latency, and reduced energy consumption for embedded AI in everyday devices. Femtosense offers a full-stack solution including AI models, software tools, and the SPU hardware. Their aim is to bring transformative AI capabilities to a wide range of applications, from wearables and smart home devices to robotics and autonomous vehicles, by making AI more efficient and accessible on smaller, lower-power silicon.
