Episode Synopsis

To further our knowledge of space and Earth, we need to both create new technologies but also use our existing ones in innovative, new ways. In this episode, Western Sydney University's Gregory Cohen explains the concept behind neuromorphic systems — tech that mimics the human brain. Cohen is one of Australia's most esteemed space researchers and was nominated for Academic of the Year at our Australian Space Awards last year. He tells host Adam Thorn how biology-inspired cameras will both unlock new discoveries about our world and allow us to learn more about nature, too.
