Cubic Photonic Processor
The CPP is built on a single 3D structure, a cube with up to six optical facets. Each facet performs arithmetic through wave interference, the natural behavior of light. Multiple wavelengths per facet enable parallel computation without electrical conversion.
Unlike existing photonic co-processors that handle only matrix multiplication, the CPP solves all four arithmetic operations. This makes it the first step toward a true general-purpose optical processor.
The CPP integrates with conventional computing as a hybrid solution: CPU + Memory + CPP. No need to replace existing infrastructure - light-based computation plugs in where it's needed most.
The Light Advantage
The first photonic processor to perform all four arithmetic operations, using light, not electrons.
Speed
Light-based computation bypasses the physical limits of electron-based processing, enabling arithmetic operations at unprecedented speeds.
Energy
Without bit manipulation and O-E-O conversion, the CPP requires significantly less power than traditional silicon-based processors.
Scalability
Light-based computation bypasses the physical limits of electron-based processing, enabling arithmetic operations at unprecedented speeds.
GENERALITY
Unlike existing photonic co-processors limited to matrix multiplication, the CPP performs all four arithmetic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Performing true Optical Arithmetic
The CPP works alongside existing hardware, integrating with a standard CPU and Memory to bring light-based computation into any system.
