Company profile

Quantum Dice

Develops photonics-powered probabilistic processors and integrated quantum photonic entropy sources in Oxford.

Company overview

Quantum Dice develops probabilistic computing hardware using an optoelectronic architecture and integrated quantum photonic entropy sources. Its current product presentation centres on ORBIT, an architecture for probabilistic processing, and the Lagrange-0 processing unit. The company describes a combination of quantum photonics, high-speed electronics and its patented DISC protocol, which provides self-correcting reliability for the entropy sources. Lagrange-0 is presented in a standard two-unit server format with an Ethernet interface, rather than as a general-purpose software service alone. Target applications include logistics, telecommunications, electronic design automation, finance and energy. The company identifies an Oxford headquarters at Hollybush Row and states that its technology draws on University of Oxford photonics intellectual property. These sources establish hardware development, but do not establish an owned semiconductor fabrication facility.
