‘Spatial intelligence shouldn’t require a GPU': This tiny chip could turn skinny Aviators into smart glasses without a bulky battery - and they'll even understand the world in real-time

Mosaic Chip Emulated On FPGA.

• This brand new perception chip supports real-time awareness at huge efficiency
• Always-on tracking could also improve smartphone camera performance
• Object recognition, positional tracking and scene understanding also supported

Swiss semiconductor startup Mosaic has successfully raised $3.8 million in funding to build super-efficient so-called perception chips, which would be installed across smart glasses and other wearables to bring more powerful processing into smaller form factors.
