Japanese researchers have helped develop an optical quantum computer that has the potential to drastically reduce the size of the next-generation computer and do even faster calculations.

A computer in which all internal circuits use light instead of electricity. Long predicted, an all-optical computer is not expected for some time as there are hurdles to overcome. However ...

The new studies used optical computer chips, a type of technology that uses light instead of electrons to undertake the processes done in a computer. "We're at an inflection point where ...

This challenge also persists in science and engineering, where the accurate 3D imaging of specular surfaces has long been a focus in both optical metrology and computer vision research.

Space-ng is on a mission to provide computer vision, optical navigation, and autonomous operations across the solar system, as well as returning cinematic experiences and imagery from pioneering ...
