Their strategy was to enable certain synapses to share hardware circuits. The result was called a device Neurogrid.

with a roadmap to greatly expand that hardware base. Each of these research teams has made different technical choices,

such as whether to dedicate each hardware circuit to modeling a single neural element (e g.,, a single synapse) or several (e g.,

, by activating the hardware circuit twice to model the effect of two active synapses. These choices have resulted in different trade-offs in terms of capability and performance.

With that cheaper hardware and compiler software to make it easy to configure, these neuromorphic systems could find numerous applications.

but computer software and hardware are not like that. They often compute to the same level of accuracy all the time. urdue researchers have developed a range of hardware techniques to demonstrate approximate computing showing a potential for improvements in energy efficiency.

Recently the researchers have shown how to apply approximate computing to programmable processors which are ubiquitous in computers servers

and hardware. uality fieldsadded to the instruction set allow the software to tell the hardware the level of accuracy needed for a given task.

Commodity hardware In other experiments however, they used an ordinary digital camera. Because of a quirk in the design of most camerassensors, the researchers were able to infer information about high-frequency vibrations even from video recorded at a standard 60 frames per second.

it less expensive to design the sensor hardware so that it reads off the measurements of one row of photodetectors at a time.

But it could also lead to benefits such as smaller batteries and less hardware which would lower costs for manufacturers and consumers.

#The Rise Of Open source Hardware So in the summer of 2012 Petrone (then an engineer at a Portland startup) launched a site where flexible matrix boards

Almost immediately Tindie began attracting favorable attention from the indie hardware community #and then expanded from there.

Today around 600 inventors sell more than 3000 different hardware products which have shipped out to more than 80 countries around the world.

Just as Etsy became the go-to marketplace for craft creators Tindie has become the primary hub for hardware aficionados.

We fill the hardware side.##While Petrone achieved his goal of creating a marketplace for hardware projects Tindie also inadvertently made a second contribution to the hardware world:

it now stands as the largest collection of open-source hardware on the planet. Nothing on the site is patented

and the vast majority of sellers have their source code and documentation links available right there on the page Petrone says.

Open source has become very much a part of the brand and what people within the hardware world associate with us.#

#Historically big companies have dominated hardware production for two simple reasons: manufacturing is both expensive and difficult.

Hardware requires physical objects which entail manufacturing costs and usually shipping. But a precipitous drop in prices#which some attribute to the rise of cell phones

which made components cheap#is helping to lower the barrier to open source entry for hardware as are crowdsourcing platforms such as Kickstarter.#

#For companies and makers the revenue model for open source hardware is still being worked out since a person could potentially exploit an open source platform and sell it for profit.

But as Arduino#a microcontroller for DIYERS and the most successful open source hardware project to date#shows people tend to buy the $30 original version rather than the $10 copycats.

#I think open hardware will start coming into its own in the next ten years Petrone says.

#This article was published originally in the October 2014 issue of Popular Science#with#the title The Etsy Of Hardware.

The team behind the Roombots have had to overcome a series of research challenges in terms of hardware and control.

but revolutionary hardware designed by engineers like Bacher have also been key. Bacher began working on the Braingate technology by conducting brain-machine interface research on nonhuman primates.

Determining the required hardware specs. Specs and hardware designgiven the required velocities and torques determined above it was clear that the momentum wheel motor

and gearbox would be a major challenge for creating the robot. Using the mathematical model allowed to systematically tackle this problem by allowing a quantitative analysis of the trade-offs between higher velocities
