PAPAYA & PAPAYA FLEX — ANALOG CIM FOR EDGE VISION AND PHYSICAL AI

PAPAYA is the verified vision engine: a next-generation Analog CIM chip, silicon-verified for computer-vision workloads. At around 50 mW, it runs image processing right on the end device with no cloud connection — ideal for AI cameras, video-monitoring equipment and industrial edge vision. PAPAYA FLEX, now being productized with a target of 2027 H1, steps up to 32M synapses and 2 TOPS within a low ~200 mW envelope, for robots, complex physical sensors and physical AI that must process multi-channel data.
