Rex Computing

Founder of REX Computing here; I highly recommend checking out my interview on the Microarch Club podcast linked elsewhere on the thread; will also answer questions on this thread if anyone has them.

This looks abandoned at first glance.<p>Maybe someone on HN has an update as to what happened to this project?

Vaguely reminds me of the Adapteva Epiphany RISC multi-processors from the old Parallella Kickstarter project, and presumably others, but that&#x27;s the one I played with for a while.<p>I&#x27;m not sure how this project&#x27;s interconnect differs, they do say theirs is revolutionary, maybe that&#x27;s the difference.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.adapteva.com&#x2F;epiphanyiii&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.adapteva.com&#x2F;epiphanyiii&#x2F;</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;parallella.org" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;parallella.org</a>

This looks like the Cell CPU, how&#x27;s it different?

Darn - I got all excited that maybe Rexx was back with something interesting -0 although this is also exciting and new.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Rexx" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Rexx</a>

Will a sub-$100 SBC with this chip on it be put on the market?

On first glance, with the routing part, it seems similar to Tenstorrent.

The premise of simplifying architecture, focus on memory, reliance on software, even the fact that you can stack a ton of chips per nose, all sounds very much like Groq. I wonder if this another case of multiple discovery.
