Quandela has unveiled Belenos, a 12-qubit photonic quantum processor, marking a major milestone in scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing
Belenos uses photons as qubits, offering room-temperature operation and high stability, making it ideal for commercial and scalable quantum systems
The system delivers a 4,000-fold increase in processing power over Quandela’s previous generation, accessible globally via the cloud
Belenos supports over 1,200 users in 30 countries, including government labs, academia, and industries like finance, logistics, chemistry, and AI
The processor is fully integrated with Quandela’s open-source Perceval platform, enabling easy simulation and execution of photonic quantum circuits using Python
Belenos is a foundational step in Quandela’s 2030 roadmap, aiming for hundreds of logical qubits and fault-tolerant quantum systems
The next-generation Canopus system is expected to double the qubit count and exponentially increase computing capacity
