Technology
Compute with light.
The FPU — Fourier Processing Unit — performs AI's most expensive operation — convolution operations — using energy-free optical Fourier transforms.
Under the Hood
'Winning' features
Energy-free Fourier transformation
Photonics performs Fourier transforms as a passive optical property — no energy cost.
Convolution scaling: O(N²) instead of O(N⁴)
Reduces the fundamental complexity of the operation at the heart of modern AI.
CMOS-compatible integration
Manufactured on standard silicon photonics processes with proven PDKs.
Research
Peer-reviewed foundations.
