Quantum Computing Inc. (NASDAQ: QUBT) announced that its NeuraWave photonic computing platform is now deployment-ready for commercial use. The company stated the platform uses hybrid photonic-digital computing to deliver artificial intelligence inference with reduced power consumption compared to conventional digital processors.

NeuraWave is designed as a PCIe plug-in card for standard servers and targets applications in telecommunications, autonomous vehicles, robotics, healthcare, and industrial monitoring. The platform processes data using light rather than electrons and is intended for edge computing environments requiring real-time analysis.

The company claims NeuraWave provides ultra-low latency performance and supports applications including time-series prediction, anomaly detection, and edge intelligence. According to Quantum Computing, the platform offers an alternative to GPU-based architectures for edge and embedded deployment scenarios.

"This marks an important step forward for photonic computing, bringing it out of the laboratory and into the hands of users that require real-time and energy-efficient AI inference," said Dr. Yong Meng Sua, Chief Technology Officer of QCi.

The platform was first demonstrated at the SC25 conference. Quantum Computing stated that units are currently being manufactured and are available for customer orders. The company described NeuraWave as part of its 2025 technology roadmap focused on bringing quantum-inspired and optical technologies to commercial applications.

Quantum Computing Inc. is a quantum optics and integrated photonics technology company based in Hoboken, New Jersey, that develops quantum machines and foundry services for photonic chip production.
