HEISINGBERG Spatial Quantum Optical Annealer for Spin Hamiltonians

Coordinator: UBITECH LIMITED (CY)

Optical simulators rank among the most promising candidates to power future technological breakthroughs in terms of speed,scalability, power-consumption and quantum advantage, serving a wide range of useful optimization problems. However, theoperation of such simulators remains currently limited by noise, the extent of algorithmic problems they can embed and to theclassical regime where they compete with supercomputers. HEISINGBERG aims to bring our state-of-the-art spatial photonic spinsimulator (an iterated cycle of all-optical processing through a spatial light modulator that couples 10,00…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €3.3M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2023-11-01 to 2027-10-31.
