Hi, I have some trouble finding the components (see BOM) on Mouser. I'm a beginner, so I don't know what 0207W or CMOS SMD means (and can't find that on the site).

[NeverDie]

What kind of practical applications are there for this?

[CORTEX Systems]

@NeverDie The CM1k chip can store over 1000 patterns associated with user-input categories. When in recognition mode, the chip compares a new input pattern to all of the stored patterns simultaneously, and outputs the best match. The practical applications are enormous -- allowing robots or other systems to recognize patterns almost instantly (visual, auditory, or other medium) and respond appropriately -- essential for self-driving vehicles, fully autonomous robotics, gesture-computer interfaces, brain-computer interfaces, complex environmental control systems, etc.

The terms that you refer to are footprint/package specifications (size, shape).

Here are links to the above components on digikey:
