Ericsson visits the Boston University Neuromorphics Lab

The Neuromorphics Lab is not new to hosting industrial visitors. Historically linked with HP Labs, and recently hosting iRobot in a CELEST Catalyst event, the Lab was visited by a large contingent of managers from Ericsson on 5/3/2011.

Ericsson is the world's leading provider of technology and services to telecom operators, provides support for networks with over 2 billion subscribers, and is present in 175 countries with more than 80,000 generating USD 27.1 billion in revenues in 2009.

The visit, organized by the Boston University School of Management Executive Education, was targeted at introducing the work of the lab to company executives. Heather Ames and Ben Chandler introduced the Lab, followed by demos from four main projects, ranging from autonomous robotics, neuromorphic chips design, to brain-robot interaction via EEG.
