Cornell researchers have built a programmable optical chip that can change the color of light by merging photons, without requiring a new chip for new colors.

Abstract: An ENOB-enhanced scheme is proposed by combing an all-optical analog-to-digital converter with modulo operation and Fourier-Prony recovery. Simulation results show that this scheme improves ...

A new technical paper titled “Analog optical computer for AI inference and combinatorial optimization” was published by researchers at Microsoft Research, Barclays and University of Cambridge.

Microsoft researchers in Cambridge have unveiled its latest iteration of an Analog Optical Computer (AOC) and have inevitably incorporated AI into the technology's capabilities. The AOC harnesses ...

Nadella took to X, formerly Twitter, saying Microsoft's "breakthrough work on an analog optical computer points to new ways to solve complex real-world problems with much greater efficiency. He added ...

According to Satya Nadella, a breakthrough in analog optical computing has been published in Nature, highlighting new methods to solve complex real-world problems with significantly greater efficiency ...

Microsoft has built a prototype computer that uses light and analog signals instead of traditional binary computing. The system, developed in Cambridge, U.K., is designed to handle optimization tasks ...

The rise of the soundbar has made it easier than ever to upgrade the audio for any TV, new or old. I’ve been testing home theater gear for many years, and can’t imagine setting up a TV without one.

Abstract: Optical-Analog-Optical wavelength converters enable low-latency conversion of a signal from one wavelength to another. We demonstrate $>2 \text{dB}$ improvement in the SNR of wavelength ...

Guitar World has been the ultimate resource for guitarists since the publication of its very first print issue in July 1980. Guitar World continues the magazine’s rich history online, and is now the ...
