About Mentium Technologies
Mentium Technologies designs AI co-processors meant to keep working in the radiation found in orbit, where charged particles can upset ordinary chips. Its Luna family includes the Luna-R1 and Luna-R2, and it describes the work as neuromorphic, meaning loosely modelled on how the brain processes signals. The company is based in the Santa Barbara area of California, and most listings give Goleta. It holds a NASA Small Business Innovation Research Phase II contract for a chip for radiation environments, and Luna-R1 has been selected for the ET-01 satellite constellation mission.
Mentium Technologies was founded in 2017 and is based in Goleta, CA, United States. It is listed under Edge Computing, AI Accelerators.

What Mentium Technologies works on
Edge Computing
Edge computing means processing data close to where it is produced, on a device or a nearby server, instead of sending everything to a distant cloud data center. In chip terms, edge processors are small, low-power chips that run software and AI models inside phones, cameras, cars and sensors.
AI Accelerators
An AI accelerator is a chip, or a part of a chip, designed to run machine learning faster or with less energy than a general-purpose processor. The category includes GPUs, TPUs, neural processing units (NPUs) and chips from many startups.
