Brief Description
nEye Systems is a next-generation optical switch company. Their programmable photonic integrated circuit integrates high-radix optical circuit switching on a Si chip and is a future-proof solution for Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) systems and other high-performance computing environments. Their optical switches are poised to solve some of the biggest challenges facing the growth and adoption of AI/ML – the excessive costs of power requirements and network expansion.
nEye’s wafer-scale optical circuit switch offers direct optical connections, cost-effectively enabling unlimited bandwidth. UC Berkeley Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, and Co-Director of Berkeley Sensor and Actuator Center and Berkeley Emerging Technologies Research Center Ming Wu, Tae Joon Seok (Berkeley PhD 2012), and XiaoSheng Zhang (Berkeley MS &PhD, 2021) co-founded nEyE systems in 2020.
