By leveraging the unparalleled advantages of photonic technologies, like speed, energy efficiency, and expansive bandwidth, this nascent photonic reservoir computing paradigm is poised to facilitate real-time applications.

Quantum seeker and innovator Dr. Pramod Kumar is determined to use his expertise for an innovation-based, sustainable future for the betterment of society. Dr. Kumar aims to use photonic technology to improve worldwide healthcare and medical care systems. Dr. Kumar is currently the Director of Research & Innovation and Principal Scientist of Laser Tech. & Quantum Photonics division at the QuantLase Laboratory in Abu Dhabi. As one of the most prolific quantum scientists in the United Arab Emirates, Dr. Kumar is at the forefront of innovation. He has been utilizing his research to explore the possibilities presented by advances in photonics technology for many years. His recent invention of the fastest laser-based Diffractive Phase Interferometry DPI screening technology will bring many new opportunities to integrate this technology into healthcare systems. This exceptional technology allows healthcare workers to screen samples on a large scale within a few seconds. This technology has been implemented in many locations across the United Arab Emirates and has already been used to screen nearly 7 million individuals.

QuantLase Laboratory has announced its intention to develop a quantum-enabled decision-maker based on photonic intelligence. This technology is designed to solve the problem of finding optimum solutions to multiparameter and multifunctional questions across multiple disciplines. This problem presents a computational dilemma, as even significant advances in AI algorithms and supercomputer processing have yet to yield technologies that can provide exact solutions to computations of significant difficulty. The real-world applications of a quantum-enabled decision-maker utilizing photonic intelligence could include finance, drug discovery, cryptography, machine learning, and the optimization and analysis of large networks. Quantum-enabled photonic technology has been conceived to create a new, indispensable tool in providing solutions that satisfy the exacting standards of scientific viability. Not only will this technology provide direct solutions to real-world problems right away, but it will also strengthen and accelerate the development of new technological advancement in the rapidly expanding fields of quantum photonics, machine-based intelligence, and other technological frontiers. This new technology will be a significant step forward, in keeping with QuantLase laboratory's commitment to drive innovation and contribute to a sustainable future. "Decision-making means conducting adequate judgments in ever-changing, undefined environments, which is widely applied in information and communications technology. Presently, we are developing a Decision-Making Machine based on Photonic Intelligence for solving Hard Computational Problems. We have successfully developed a Quantum Random Generator using Optical Phase diffusion and are ready to deploy it for real-life applications. So, our  Photonic Entropy source is the fundamental ingredient for the decision-making system. QuantLase Laboratory was established in 2020 under UAE law as a limited liability company. Based in Masdar City, QuantLase Laboratory's primary goal is to develop quantum-enabled photonic technologies for a variety of applications. The company pursues scientific breakthroughs that contribute to the UAE 2030  vision in which innovation, science, research, and technology form the basis of a productive and competitive knowledge-based economy.
