We are the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems
- We study and mimic biological brains and sensory organs to engineer compact, robust, and efficient artificial neural networks that out-perform classical computers and conventional sensors.
- We design and build high-performance, energy-efficient sensors and processors, including algorithms and customised hardware, which are ideal for distributed, mobile, and autonomous applications in challenging and remote environments.
- We also find answers to big questions like How does the brain work? and solutions for neurological damage or disease.
- We’re training the next generation of neuromorphic engineers to meet growing demand in this increasingly important field.
We welcome your interest in our research and impact. To learn more, please explore our website or get in touch.

Neuromorphic Perception SolutionsThe International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS) is a world leader in the development of Neuromorphic Perception Solutions. Inspired by biology, these ground-breaking solutions harness the power of the centre’s pioneering research on neuromorphic sensors, algorithms and processing hardware, to solve problems currently impeding technological innovation. The Neuromorphic Engineering approach is sustainable and reliable, using low-power and high-speed systems at the edge to provide a solution to the data deluge problem currently limiting existing technology. Neuromorphic Perception Solutions incorporate smart sensors, AI and digital infrastructure design and development, targeting areas such as Space and Aviation, smart manufacturing, built environment, automotive, agriculture and medical technology. ICNS is already working with multinational firms such as Intel and Microsoft on the real-world application of these solutions and is actively seeking commercial partners for further collaborations. Such partnerships will help create a globally unique economic hub in Western Sydney and boost Australia’s regional economic sustainability and development. JOIN US IN SHAPING THE FUTURE AND DELIVERING SOLUTIONS We are seeking Expressions of Interest in how you wish to partner with us, so together we can fully realise the potential of these innovations and create globally significant commercial outcomes. |
