Orca Computing Limited

Multiplexing and switching are staple techniques of the telecoms industry, allowing information to be carried simultaneously across time, frequency and spatial channels and therefore unlocking the ultra-high data speeds that we have all grown to rely upon. Multiplexing and switching also have a role to play when designing a network to connect quantum comp...

In this project ORCA Computing will deliver a first-of-its-kind operational photonic quantum computing testbed featuring multiple highly innovative, novel technologies in a single infrastructure platform to the UK before the rest of the world. The single infrastructure approach will enable more rapid technology characterisation, thus accelerating discover...

Q-REALM Wind is a feasibility study being undertaken by EY and ORCA Computing, together with critical input from a multi-national energy producer to explore the potential of using generative modelling techniques on ORCA's PT-Series photonic quantum processor for onshore and offshore wind farm location optimisation. The objective of the project is to asses...

Satellite data provides opportunities for governments and businesses around the world in scientific, socio-economic management and commercial applications. Access to timely, reliable, and actionable information is increasingly critical to a growing number of organizations and decision makers who rely on earth observation data. Gaining useful insights from...

AI models have rapidly become the basis of an organization's core operation and repository of its intellectual property. In the case of an enterprise, models can be their very business model. In addition, with the costs of training generative AI systems potentially running into the millions or 10's of millions of dollars, there has been increasing interes...

Quantum Computing is a highly disruptive technology that has the potential to completely change the way that people approach and use data centres and high-performance computing. The step-change that quantum computing offers should not be understated- it has the potential to radically change the way that individuals use, work with and purchase computing in...

Quantum technologies have demonstrated the potential for vast technological improvements in communication, metrology, and computation. Although there are a variety of ways to leverage quantum technologies, photonic technologies -- those which are based upon encoding information in light -- are an exciting paradigm. Photons can be transmitted over complex ...

MANGROVE will develop novel integrated-photonic circuits that could be incorporated into ORCA's products and unlock significant new opportunities in the quantum research, computing, communications and imaging markets.

Single photons are the workhorse of the future quantum technology industry, being a fundamental component to high fidelity quantum computing, quantum communications, quantum imaging and some types of quantum sensing. However, to date, no truly single photon sources of high quality, high efficiency, indistinguishable exists on the market. Current single ph...

Data centres, and the networks and systems that surround them are the future work horse of digitised economies. The data processing that they provide is a well-known driver for economic growth, providing cutting edge storage and computing systems that increasingly underpin all aspects of business and society. These data centres are huge system of systems,...

We are developing photonic quantum computers that will use individual particles of light known as photons to carry out computational tasks in more powerful ways than conventional supercomputers. However, operations in photonic quantum computers are fundamentally unreliable, hence memory elements are required to store successful outcomes of quantum logic g...
