The NeAIxt project’s goal is to enable Europe to master and industrialize the key technologies for edge AI combining advanced microelectronics, embedded AI and security.
This major European initiative aims to secure technological sovereignty in edge artificial intelligence (AI) by developing next-generation, energy-efficient, and secure microcontrollers with embedded AI capabilities, leveraging advanced FD-SOI (Fully Depleted Silicon On Insulator) technology and innovative eNVMs (embedded non-volatile memories).
Context
The rapid growth of digitalization and AI in Europe is driving demand for energy-efficient, secure, and high-performance edge computing. However, current embedded AI solutions face challenges such as high energy use, data privacy risks, and limited technological sovereignty.
NeAIxt aims to spark a technological revolution in edge AI by developing next-generation, low-power, and secure microcontrollers with embedded AI, based on advanced FD-SOI and innovative non-volatile memories.
Advance European microelectronics by pushing FD-SOI to 18nm and developing new eNVMs (PCM, OxRAM, FeRAM)
Integrate these technologies into robust, privacy-compliant, and trustworthy edge AI solutions for sectors like automotive, industry, healthcare, and consumer electronics.
Deliver interoperable hardware/software platforms, demonstrators, and best-practice guidelines for secure, energy-efficient edge AI.
Together, NeAIxt’s outputs will provide a comprehensive toolkit to accelerate the adoption of sovereign, sustainable, and high-performance edge AI across Europe.
