Quantum Computing Inc. (NASDAQ:QUBT) saw its stock climb 16% on Monday after the company revealed plans to introduce Neurawave, a new photonics-driven reservoir computing system, at November’s SuperCompute25 conference.
Neurawave marks a major step forward in QCi’s photonic-computing strategy. Built on a PCIe card, the system is designed to slot directly into existing computing environments through a standard interface, blending optical processing with digital electronics in a compact unit that runs at room temperature.
“This launch marks a good step forward for QCi,” said Dr. Yuping Huang, CEO at QCi. “We are building photonic computing systems that not only push the boundaries of technology but also align with industry standards and integration requirements by making photonics-based computing practical and impactful.”
The company says the system is tailored for edge-AI workloads such as time-series forecasting, pattern recognition, and signal processing — areas where fast, efficient computation is essential for field deployments, industrial applications, and embedded systems.
Neurawave will make its public debut at Booth #4344 during SuperCompute25, taking place November 18–20, 2025, in St. Louis, Missouri. Alongside the hardware demonstration, QCi will also host on-cloud sessions for its Dirac-3 quantum computer, offering attendees the chance to test real-time quantum processing capabilities.
