QBoson
QBoson develops specialized optical optimization machines and the Kaiwu software used to formulate problems for them. Its coherent Ising approach represents binary variables through optical oscillator states and searches low-energy configurations. Kaiwu includes QUBO preprocessing, classical solvers, simulation and physical-machine interfaces, supporting practical comparisons between optical optimization and conventional methods. Based in Beijing, China.

What remains unresolved
An Ising-machine variable is not equivalent to a universal gate-model qubit. The ability to return candidate solutions does not guarantee optimality or quantum advantage.
The next question to watch
Publish reproducible comparisons including mapping, sampling and total runtime.
