The goal of ARCHYTAS is to investigate non-conventional Artificial Intelligence (AI) accelerators for defence applications, using novel technologies at the device and package level.

The project aims to investigate and study the feasibility of non-conventional AI accelerators for defence applications that take advantage of novel technologies at the device and package level, such as optoelectronic-based accelerators, volatile and non-volatile processing-in-memory, and neuromorphic devices. The project distinctly addresses the challenges encountered in the defence use cases by proposing optimised solutions for efficient energy consumption, speed, and cost.
