Lifetime-Aware Design for Item-Level Intelligence at the Extreme Edge

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2509.08193v2 Announce Type: replace-cross We present FlexiFlow, a lifetime-aware design framework for item-level intelligence (ILI) where computation is integrated directly into disposable products like food packaging and medical patches. Our framework leverages natively flexible electronics which offer significantly lower costs than silicon but are limited to kHz speeds and several thousands of gates.
