The QVLS-iLabs future cluster enters its second phase with €15 million in funding
15 million euros for a brilliant AI revolution
They want to bring light to the world of microelectronics: The state of Lower Saxony and the Volkswagen Foundation are providing around €15 million in funding to the Lower Saxony microelectronics consortium ‘Nitride Technology Centre’ (NTC), which is led by TU Braunschweig. Under the project name ‘Bringing Light to Microelectronics’ (BRIGHT), the consortium is developing, among other things, a unique neuromorphic computer based on LEDs. In the future, this is expected to dramatically reduce the enormous power consumption of AI applications.
