This month, our team attended OASIS9, where scientists and engineers from academia, industry, and research institutions came together to explore the latest breakthroughs in optics and photonics. Our Head of Innovation Omri Wolf had the opportunity to present our all-optical, laser-based computing method and showcase the next generation of high-performance computing. A big thank you to the Optical Engineering and Science in Israel (OASIS) and the AEAI - Association of Engineers and Architects in Israel - לשכת המהנדסים for hosting an incredible event! #photonics #HPC #innovation

On May 6th at 2:00 PM ET, join our CTO and co-founder Chene Tradonsky for a webinar hosted by Laser Focus World: "Lighting the Way: Transforming HPC with Laser-Based Technology." Organizations across numerous industries are looking to process workloads of ever-increasing size and complexity, but classical computers are reaching their limits. In the webinar, Chene will introduce our Laser Processing Unit (LPU) and explain how it leverages coupled lasers to solve large-scale problems with greater efficiency than traditional HPC. If you're interested in the future of computing, we’d love for you to join. Register here: https://bit.ly/4iKZS3e #HPC #LaserComputing #TechInnovation #EUeic

Our CEO Ruti Ben-Shlomi recently spoke with Sharon Spielman about our collaboration with Ansys and how we’re pushing the boundaries of high-performance computing. "Ansys is constantly looking for advanced computing technologies that can speed up heavy CAE workloads. We collaborated with a team that evaluated such platforms. Specifically, the work consisted of optimizing sparse matrix re-ordering within LS-DYNA to reduce floating point operations and storage, eventually shortening run times. We showed superior results for a series of test cases vs. other tested solutions and continue to work with the Ansys team on additional use cases and full integration."

LightSolver is featured in Gartner’s 2024 Hype Cycle for Compute! According to Gartner, photonic computing is gaining traction as a breakthrough technology with the potential to reshape AI, HPC, and compute-intensive applications. As Moore’s Law slows, the demand for faster, more energy-efficient computing is increasing, and photonic computing is emerging as a key solution to these challenges. By leveraging light-based computation, we’re advancing the field alongside Lightelligence, Lightmatter, Q.ANT, and Salience Labs. While challenges remain, Gartner highlights photonic computing’s potential in revolutionizing industries from telecommunications to logistics.
