TEL AVIV, Israel, May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Israeli start-up LightSolver today unveiled the first pure laser-based processing unit (LPU), a new computing paradigm that is poised to outpace and outperform quantum and supercomputers. This quantum-inspired solution utilizes all-optical coupled lasers that require no electronics to compute, enabling it to be as small as a traditional desktop computer while offering unrivaled scalability, low power requirements, and room temperature operation. Additionally, it is built from well-understood laser technology and commercially available components. LightSolver is available to businesses today as a software-as-a-service (SaaS), providing solutions to optimization problems previously considered unsolvable once they exceed a certain number of variables.

Key Points: 
  • Although quantum and supercomputers were created to tackle such problems, supercomputers seem to have reached their computational limit, and quantum computers are not yet scalable and practical.
  • Similar to the GPU that surpassed the performance of the CPU, LightSolver’s proprietary LPU can outperform today’s strongest classical supercomputers.
  • Taking on the “3-Regular 3-XORSAT Challenge,” LightSolver solved the problem in polynomial time, while all other state-of-the art classical and quantum computers solved it in exponential time.
  • LightSolver developed a quantum-inspired algorithm for sparse coding that resulted in more accurate estimations than classical approximation methods.
