Digital Futures faculty member Jörg Conradt is an Associate Professor at the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at KTH and a leading researcher in neuro-inspired computation and systems. With a PhD from ETH Zurich, Jörg is deeply fascinated with how brains process sensor information and form a consolidated understanding of the world around us. Before KTH, he was a Junior Professor at Technische Universität München, where he co-founded the Elite Master Program in NeuroEngineering.
In his TEDx talk ”Energy-efficient Neuromorphic Computing”, Jörg delves into the intriguing question of how our brains process information, i.e., how we interpret what we see, hear, smell, and touch, and how these processes differ from how computers operate today. He highlights how energy-efficient computing strategies brains have developed and demonstrates how to use them for pervasive sensors, mobile computers, and small autonomous robots.
“TEDxKTH – our digital futures” was organized by Digital Futures at Ericsson Open Box, Kista, on 3 September 2024.
