Neurobotx FAQ – Pioneering Aerospace, Defense, Space, and Mobility Training

Hey, what's with the retrofuturistic arcade theme?

Neurobotx is retrofuturistic, and so is neuromorphic computing. Also, we are techno-optimistic nostalgics and we like techno. If you are trying to be part of the technology revolution, push humanity's boundaries into space all while building a respectable career, this is the place for you. The main advantage of neuromorphic computing stands in it's ANALOG, as opposed to digital nature. That's what generates the huge energy savings and the increase in speed. Computers were meant to be analog and neuromorphic since their very inception. So the retrofuturistic theme of neurobotx is about revisiting the most fundamental principles in computing, and bringing them back into the mainstream again: analog computing, energy efficiency, and going beyond the classical logic of 0s and 1s and get gradients instead, just like neurons when they spike.  We are driven and inspired by Isaac Asimov's sci fi novels, flying cars, androids, robots and the 80s techno-optimism. We are looking to bring that vision back into our currently reality.
