Department of Electronic Systems Engineering (ESE) at IISc, Bangalore and LTM Drive AI Awareness with Neuromorphic Computing Hackathon

Department of Electronic Systems Engineering (ESE) at IISc, Bangalore jointly with LTM – the Business Creativity partner to the world’s largest enterprises, successfully hosted a Neuromorphic Computing Hackathon on 7 March, 2026. The initiative fostered cutting-edge AI research awareness through this joint engagement.

Neuromorphic computing, a brain-inspired approach to artificial intelligence, is emerging as a cornerstone for next-generation intelligent systems. By enabling energy-efficient, event-driven and adaptive AI, neuromorphic architectures are particularly suited for edge and cyber-physical applications. Through this hackathon, LTM Research and IISc’s Department of Electronic Systems Engineering provided students and researchers with hands-on exposure to applying neuromorphic principles to real-world problem statements.

The hackathon brought together more than 72 participants from 13 colleges clubbed into 28 teams, to explore the rapidly evolving field of neuromorphic computing. Top 10 teams that addressed specialized problem statements in these domains were shortlisted for final evaluation.
