About Vivum Computing
Vivum Computing is a US startup working on spiking neural networks run on FPGAs for autonomous systems. Spiking networks pass short pulses between artificial neurons and compute only when a pulse arrives, which can save power compared with standard neural networks. FPGAs are chips whose wiring can be reconfigured after manufacture, so a design can change without new silicon. Its website uses the name Vivum AI, and the company is listed as based in South San Francisco.
Vivum Computing was founded in 2023 and is based in South San Francisco, CA, United States. It is listed under Neuromorphic Computing, FPGAs.

What Vivum Computing works on
Neuromorphic Computing
Neuromorphic computing builds chips that copy some features of the brain. Instead of a central processor and separate memory, a neuromorphic chip has many small units that act like neurons, each with its own local memory, joined by connections that act like synapses.
FPGAs
An FPGA, or field-programmable gate array, is a chip whose internal wiring can be changed after it is made. It contains a grid of small logic blocks, memory blocks and programmable connections. Loading a new configuration file, called a bitstream, turns it into a different digital circuit.
