Headquartered in Culver City, CA, APIC Corporation has over twenty years of research and development in silicon-photonics and developed Heterogeneously Integrated Photonics and Electronics (HIP-E) technologies under a contract sponsored by DARPA, the Navy and the Intelligence Communities.  HIP-E will transform computing systems similar to the transformation from vacuum tubes to solid state transistors.  APIC envisions building computing systems which are 23 times more energy efficient, paving the way for practical AI systems that won’t drain the Nation’s energy grid.  
HIP-E replaces the copper traces in conventional circuit boards with a chip-scale fiber optic links that are 750 time more energy efficient than copper and have a bandwidth density sufficient to eliminate the von Neuman bottleneck.  An overarching optical mesh network connects all the processors and memory chips to form a global coherent memory accessible to every processor.  
APIC has key patents on photonic integrated circuits, components and a system architecture that is scalable to an exa-scale supercomputer.
