The creator of a computer that uses lasers to carry out complex tasks at the speed of light has announced a breakthrough in high-performance computing.
LightSolver’s new LPU100 system is powered by 100 lasers and can solve the most challenging of problems with up to 120100 combinations.
The computer was created by LightSolver CEO Dr. Ruti Ben Shlomi and CTO Dr. Chene Tradonsky, physicists of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot.
It is not suitable for domestic use, given that its high computational power is beyond what individuals need, but is suited to enterprises solving problems with up to one million variables. Those clients can access the system through LightSolver’s new cloud platform.
“The LPU100 gives enterprises a competitive advantage today by enabling them to fully optimize their business processes and make better, data-backed decisions,” said Ben Shlomi.
“This technological achievement is already proving more scalable and practical than quantum computers and supercomputers, and we are excited to share its power with our customers through the cloud-based LightSolver platform,” she said.
