Akshara Computation Model

A universal hardware decoder that treats all Brahmi-derived scripts as variations of a common aksharic structure — consonant clusters, vowel markers, and modifiers — parameterized via compact rule tables in on-die ROM.

New scripts can be added via firmware update without silicon changes. Single-cycle transliteration between any two scripts. 128K multilingual token vocabulary in Content-Addressable Memory for instant lookup

Duration 12–18 months
Capital ₹5–15 Cr
Milestone FPGA demo + patents
Team 15–20 engineers
Phase 2 — Year 2
28nm Test Chip Tape-Out
Silicon validation of novel subsystems — ILPU, PIM-SRAM, Transformer Engine, neuromorphic block. Prove patents in real silicon.
Duration 12–18 months
Capital ₹15–30 Cr
Milestone Working silicon
Node 28nm / 12nm
Phase 3 — Year 3–5
