Cornell researchers build first ‘microwave brain’ on a chip

Cornell researchers developed a groundbreaking "microwave brain" microchip that processes both ultrafast data and wireless signals by utilizing microwave physics. This low-power processor (using under 200 milliwatts) achieves 88% accuracy on wireless signal tasks through its analog neural network design, eliminating many digital processing steps while maintaining high performance for applications ranging from radar tracking to potential future use in smartphones and smartwatches.
