Cosa fa Synapse Semiconductor

We want to push machines to where humans cant go. Presidential early career award winning Duke Semiconductor ECE Faculty Tania Roy and Sanjeev Chauhan are building a frontier semiconductor research lab. Their focus is on solving physical AI challenges from the semiconductor device level and building products around the moat of impossible to copy innovation. Their first work is on a new vision sensor that can run neural network filters right in the camera pixels and only collect data that machines care about. As physical AI develops, machines needs to understand the world around them if they aim to interact with them.

Company

Company name

Synapse Semiconductor

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Semiconductors that run AI vision in the sensor.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building new semiconductors that combine computing with vision, starting with a vision sensor that can run neural network filters directly on the camera pixels. This means the sensor itself only collects and outputs data relevant to machine perception, bypassing raw video most machines don't need. Instead of sending a firehose of useless data upstream, our chip detects and processes what matters at the edge.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are in Durham, NC, USA and the company will stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our research expertise and lab access are in Durham, and the region has strong resources for semiconductor and hardware startups.
