ALMAWARE · Eran Neuromorphic R&D
Open, honest, build-it-yourself guides for memristors and brain-like hardware — from a $5 flame-oxidized synapse to laser perceptrons and self-attuning resonant neurons. Every guide is tiered: working-today → real device → frontier.
🧠 Mr. Brain — Laser Optical Perceptron HTML
A real perceptron built from light: two colored lasers as inputs, photoresistors as weights, a prism to route by color, a comparator to fire. Laser-safety first.
Optical Chromatic Memristor Neuron HTML
A synapse whose weight is written by light and whose inputs are encoded by color — working-today → real optical memory → chromatic WDM synapses.
Optical Neuromorphic — ALMAWARE PDF
The full optical-neuromorphic design note: photodiodes, color-encoded weights, and light-routed 3D arrays where wires can't reach.
Build a Perceptron & SNARC PDF
Step-by-step build of Rosenblatt's perceptron and Minsky's SNARC — the first learning machines — from parts on your bench.
Perceptron & SNARC — Homemade PDF
The homemade variant: a hands-on layout you can wire up and train at home.
Perceptron & SNARC — Full Size PDF
Full-size print version of the perceptron / SNARC build for the workbench.
Perceptron — Potentiometer Build PDF
A perceptron whose weights are physical potentiometers you turn by hand — the most tangible way to feel a neuron learn.
