MIT engineers grow “high-rise” 3D chips

An electronic stacking technique could exponentially increase the number of transistors on chips, enabling more efficient AI hardware.

Photonic processor could enable ultrafast AI computations with extreme energy efficiency

This new device uses light to perform the key operations of a deep neural network on a chip, opening the door to high-speed processors that can learn in real-time.

This tiny, tamper-proof ID tag can authenticate almost anything

MIT engineers developed a tag that can reveal with near-perfect accuracy whether an item is real or fake. The key is in the glue on the back of the tag.

Accelerating AI tasks while preserving data security

The SecureLoop search tool efficiently identifies secure designs for hardware that can boost the performance of complex AI tasks, while requiring less energy.
