Modern computer vision requires the complex orchestration of storage, compute, processing, and sensors, inherently limiting the flexibility of its applications. Yet to push the frontier of machine perception tasks beyond their existing limits, these must be consolidated. Synapse Semiconductor is the first company to integrate all components of the computer vision stack into one substrate.

Synapse Semiconductor is a frontier semiconductor research lab building senses for physical AI. Synapse Semiconductor builds image sensors that process AI on the sensor itself. Each pixel captures light and runs neural-network computation in the same device, replacing the need for a GPU while cutting the power and latency of edge vision.
Vision systems are already the core technology for self-driving cars, drones and humanoid robotics.
Like the New World once was, space is the next great frontier to explore. In the future, drones will navigate using vision alone, robots will scout the Moon for the next colony, and satellites will perceive their environment and react in real time. At the foundation of it all will be Synapse Semiconductor.
