Abstract | The BrainScaleS-2 system is an established analog neuromorphic platform with versatile applications in the diverse fields of computational neuroscience and spike-based machine learning. In this work, we extend the system with a configurable realtime event interface that enables a tight coupling of its distinct analog network core to external sensors and actuators. The 1,000-fold acceleration of the emulated nerve cells allows us to target high-speed robotic applications that require precise timing on a microsecond scale. As a showcase, we present a closed-loop setup for commuting brushless DC motors: we utilize PyTorch to train a spiking neural network emulated on the analog substrate to control an electric motor from a sensory event stream. The presented system enables research in the area of event-driven controllers for high-speed robotics, including self-supervised and biologically inspired online learning for such applications. |
