flag SpiNNcloud delivered a brain-inspired supercomputer to UTSA, now one of the world’s largest neuromorphic systems, to advance energy-efficient AI and neuroscience research.

flag SpiNNcloud has delivered a brain-inspired supercomputer based on the SpiNNaker2 architecture to the U.S. Neuromorphic Commons (THOR), funded by the National Science Foundation. flag The system, now one of the world’s four largest neuromorphic platforms, simulates over 393 million neurons and is located at UTSA. flag Designed by Professor Steve Furber, it uses a low-power, event-driven processor array to mimic brain function, enabling energy-efficient AI and neuroscience research. flag THOR aims to advance sustainable AI, brain-inspired algorithms, and next-generation computing by providing a full-stack ecosystem to researchers nationwide. flag The deployment marks a growing shift toward scalable, energy-efficient computing architectures.
