Neurala is proud to share that we have been honored for our work in AI-enabled anti-poaching drones by Netexplo in partnership with UNESCO.

We were thrilled to move into our headquarters in the Seaport District this past summer - and now we're ready to show it off. Our offices have a heavy robotics and brains theme. We even have our founders' research papers proudly displayed on columns throughout the office. We shared our space with VentureFizz - check out a few snapshots below:

Deep learning neural networks company Neurala today announced a record-breaking year that included a well-publicized $14 million Series A funding round, significant customer and talent gains, local and global expansion, multiple industry award wins, and increased technological offerings in the drone, autonomous vehicle, security and inspection spaces.

Artificial intelligence company Neurala has been selected for inclusion in the CB Insights ‘15 Early-Stage Drone Companies To Watch’ list.

Max Versace is the CEO of Neurala and has lectured on Artificial Intelligence for TedX, NASA, and the Pentagon, among others. He spoke with Inc. to break down the answers to your burning questions about AI:

If it seems like people are building artificial intelligence into everything, it’s because they are. Journalists, CTOs, and analysts are throwing around acronyms like AI, NLP and ML left and right, while the rest of us are left wondering: What does this mean? And why now?

 

Neurala was recently honored to receive the 2017 TechConnect Defense Innovation Award at the Defense Innovation Summit (DITAC) in Tampa, Florida this October for its advancement of the Neurala Brain. This award highlights the potential positive impact that Neurala technology will have for national security, and recognizes the rate at which enhanced artificial intelligence is impacting the def...

 This post originally appeared on DRONELIFE There’s a lot of hype about AI in the drone industry.  Applications labeled “AI” offer a wide variety of analysis and sense-and-avoid capabilities.  But Boston-based Neurala provides drones (or cars, cameras, and toys) with something more critical than those applications: a brain.

Cambridge, MA -- Neurala’s COO and co-founder Heather Ames sat down with Deepu Talla (Nvidia, VP and General Manager of Intelligent Machines) and Brian Gerkey (Open Source Robotics) to talk about Building The Robot Brain today at the TechCrunch Sessions: Robotics event at MIT's Kresge Auditorium. They chatted about the state of AI, on how more standardization might be needed moving for...

Silicon Valley -- The award for the Most Innovative Company in the Draper Venture Network was given to Neurala here today at the Draper CEO Summit.  Neurala was named as the leading company enabling groundbreaking changes in the industry.  The Network has member funds operating in 30 cities across 4 continents. More than 600 portfolio companies were eligible to receiv...

For several years now, we at Neurala have eagerly awaited the release of a consumer drone that is capable of true autonomous flight without expensive hardware add-ons.  Our vision to empower drones to work and play alongside humans without requiring step-by-step control could only be realized with a new class of drone.  Powerful processors and intelligent software needed to be house...

The U.S. Patent Office issued to Neurala, Inc. a new patent (US 9,189,828) that extends the US patent 8,648,867 (Graphic Processor Based Accelerator System and Method) into the domain of real-time control of autonomous machines, such as self-driving cars and drones. While the prior patent covered hardware and software “controllers” that handle most of the primitive operations needed to set up...
