A new “frequency comb” optical chip design can transmit almost twice as much data as the entire Internet in a single second. A frequency comb is a masterfully precise laser composed of many distinct frequencies, or color wavelengths. The global Internet relies on fiber optic technology which must have massive data transmission capacity. In new …

Article by: Sally Ward-Foxton Rain’s scientific work proves that training deep learning networks on analog chips works. Rain Neuromorphics trained a deep learning network on an analog chip (a crossbar network of memristors) using the company’s analog-compatible training algorithms. The process required several orders of magnitude less power compared to current GPU systems. Although Rain’s …
