讲座摘要:

With the deepening development of the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, building efficient and low-power bionic perception computing systems has become a cutting-edge research hotspot. In traditional computing architectures, sensing, storage, and processing units are physically separated, and frequent data transfer between them leads to significant latency and power consumption, known as the "von Neumann bottleneck". To address this challenge, this report focuses on the emerging device of self driving memristors and explores its enormous potential in achieving integrated biomimetic sensing and computing. Self driving memristors cleverly integrate energy harvesting, information sensing, and non-volatile storage/computing functions into a single device. Its core lies in the ability to directly convert external environmental stimuli (such as pressure, light, humidity) into electrical signals, and use this signal to synchronously change its own resistive state, thereby encoding sensory information directly into the device's conductivity value. The working mechanism of "sensory storage computing integration" is highly similar to the efficient processing of sensory information by neurons and synapses in the human brain.
