A dual-use quantum accelerated simulation startup recently established a strategic collaboration with the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory to advance its mission-critical modeling and simulation capabilities with quantum computing.
BQP (BosonQ Psi), the Syracuse, New York-based startup, has also announced a new "oversubscribed $4.9 million seed round to expand its unified digital twin platform, BQPhy®, for mission-critical industries, including aerospace, defense (A&D), and semiconductors," according to a July announcement about the new funding round.
The startup's BQPhy simulation platform is powered by quantum algorithms that are capable of unlocking significant gains in high-performance computing when compared to platforms that use legacy algorithms, according to BQP.
“Our quantum-inspired solvers are setting a new benchmark in simulation technology, bridging today’s computational limits and the quantum-ready future,” said Abhishek Chopra, BQP Founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer. “The traction we're experiencing from AFRL/RQ and industry-leading design partners validates the immediate impact and substantial ROI our platform delivers today. We're also making significant R&D progress in quantum-native solvers for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Machine Learning (ML), paving the way for future simulation workload for the next generation of data centers where HPC and quantum computers operate side by side.”
Chopra is the guest on this episode of the Aerospace & Defense Technology podcast to explain how their simulation technology leverages quantum algorithms for simulation and modeling.
