iPronics develops the innovative concept of general purpose integrated programmable photonic systems, which are based on a common optical hardware configurabl e through software to perform multiple functions. Its value proposition lies in the fundamental cost advantage that comes wit h the repeated manufacture of the same hardware architecture, also contributing to the optimization of manufacturing processes and the energy consumption efficiency of these systems. iPronics contributes to the development of future information processing system s where electronics and photonics work cooperatively exploiting the best capabilities of each technology.
