R&D direction

AI compute with light

A research direction: accelerating AI inference in our robots using light instead of electronics alone - lower power, higher throughput.

R&D

Optical matrix multiplication

One optical pass vs thousands of clock cycles

Neural-network inference is dominated by matrix-vector multiplication (GEMM). Photonic chips perform it with light passing through Mach-Zehnder interferometer meshes - doing in a single optical pass what electronics need thousands of clock cycles to compute.

R&D

Hybrid photonic-electronic architecture

Optical math, electronic activations

Photonic chips excel at linear operations (matrix math) but not nonlinear ones (activation functions). The consensus architecture pairs optical cores for matrix math with electronic units for activations - a hybrid design taking the best of both.

MARKET

From €1.8B to €14.6B

A fast-growing accelerator market

The global photonic AI-accelerator market, 2025 to 2034 (CAGR 26.3%). As of 2026 we track 52 photonic-computing companies worldwide.

STRATEGY

Photonics as the future compute layer

Swap the substrate, keep the intelligence

As photonic accelerators reach maturity (a 2027-2031 window for datacenter-class products), the POLCERO AI-brain architecture is built to absorb them - the abstraction layer lets us swap the compute substrate without retraining the task intelligence.
