What It IS
Technical VisionThe architectural essence — what makes this technology work
A silicon die viewed from above, its functional blocks laid out in precise geometry: ternary compute arrays, sparse accelerators, compressed memory hierarchies, all connected by a ternary data fabric. Blueprint for the first chip that thinks natively in three states.
Abstract
Compiler backend for ternary neural network inference on Binary NPU hardware, including register allocation, instruction scheduling, and memory optimization.
