Given the high barrier of entry to photonic computing research, to enable the community to innovate in this space, we put together a photonic multiplication developer kit with a python API.
Our developer kit assembly instructions and Lightning’s source code (RTL, customized linux kernel, photonic emulator, inference serving simulator) can be found here https://github.com/open-photonics/lightning-lts
