Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the entire earth, and a new paradigm called neuromorphic computing is emerging on the horizon. It promises to revolutionise the way machines process information. Neuromorphic computing is inspired by the human brain. Neuromorphic systems use tailor-made software and Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) to process data in a highly parallelised, adaptive, and energy-efficient manner. The energy-constrained, data-rich, and complex domains like agriculture can benefit hugely from neuromorphic systems. Modern agriculture faces a deluge of real-time data from soil sensors, drones, and weather stations. Constant cloud connectivity and large power supplies may be needed for managing this big data…read more on NOPR
