On March 31, Japan's Fujitsu announced that it has developed the world's fastest analog quantum computer, and its simulator can achieve twice the performance of similar machines such as IBM and Intel, which can be put into practical use in the next few years.
Fujitsu said it was able to handle circuits with 36 qubits on a featured clustered system based on the Fujitsu Fujitsu supercomputer PRIMEHPC FX 700. Starting tomorrow, Fujitsu will conduct quantum computing research in the field of materials science with Fujifilm Corporation.
The development of photography and videography to the current state, computational photography will become an important development direction in the future. Real-time computing and analysis of video images requires ultra-high computing power support, which is one of the important reasons why the iPhone can achieve a sustained lead in video shooting.
Video is about to move towards the 8K era, which means cameras will have higher and higher base pixels. Although most of the current civilian display devices do not support 8K resolution, with the development of the times, there are more and more display devices that support 8K. At this stage, the highest requirements for high resolution may be VR equipment, it is very close to the human eye, the display device to achieve similar to the Retina retina screen standard, the resolution of the unilateral screen to reach 8K.
If the sales of VR equipment have soared in recent years, 8K video may be popularized, which puts forward high requirements for the computing power of the camera.
Ultra-high computing power analog quantum computers will be more used in the industrial field, and there may not be so many applications in the civilian field. In the traditional industrial field, many industries have not yet achieved complete informatization, and many industries rely on the support of high computing power. For example, if the logistics industry wants to achieve higher transportation efficiency, it is necessary for industrial robots to distribute each transport part reasonably, which is inseparable from the support of high computing power.
In the future, computing may occur more in the cloud, and users do not need to buy a device with strong local computing power, and rely on high-speed wireless network transmission to complete the computing task.
Cloud computing servers have professional cooling equipment, computing equipment can play a better role, civil equipment does not need to be equipped with heavy heat dissipation modules, equipment will become lighter and lighter, more convenient for users to go out to carry. In addition, this process depends on the continuous development of wireless networks.
