Neuromorphic AI hardware encompasses brain-inspired computing systems that implement neural network primitives directly in physical substrates to achieve extreme energy efficiency and low latency. Architectures use devices such as memristors, magnetic tunnel junctions, electrochemical memories, photonic and microwave components, and organic or superconducting neurons to realize synapses, neurons, and compute-in-memory operations. These platforms support spiking and analog neural computation, on-chip learning, and specialized sensory and cognitive functions, targeting applications from edge intelligence and autonomous systems to large-scale AI acceleration and brain–computer interfaces.
