Dr. George was recently awarded a grant from NVIDIA to supply Jetson Nanos for the NeuroRobotics course! A Jetson Nano is a small, powerful computer (similar to a Raspberry Pi) with an embedded GPU to run multiple neural networks in parallel for applications like image classification, object detection, segmentation, and speech processing. It's an easy-to-use platform that runs in as little as 5 watts. These new modules will allow for a variety of deployable AI models for decoding biological signals (to control bionic devices by thought) and encoding neural stimulation (to provide haptic feedback or to animate limbs).
