Quantinuum, the world’s largest integrated quantum computing company, and RIKEN, Japan’s largest comprehensive research facility, announced the successful on-site installation of Quantinuum’s “Reimei” quantum computer at RIKEN’s Wako campus in Saitama, Japan . RIKEN has designed, prepared, and delivered a world-class trapped ion quantum computing facility that will enable generations of high-performance quantum systems.
This state-of-the-art machine is now fully operational, ushering in a new era of discovery and innovation. With its installation at RIKEN’s world-class facility, Japanese researchers now have direct access to Quantinuum’s cutting-edge quantum computing technology, known as the world’s most powerful systems. Quantinuum’s hardware is notable for being the only system available to use a unique architecture that physically moves qubits, opening up new tools and possibilities not available on other platforms. The system’s exceptional performance and consistency are supported by the stability of the facility’s world-class environment, which is designed, built, and maintained to maximize the capabilities of Quantinuum’s quantum computers.
Named “Reimei,” which means “dawn” in Japanese, this powerful quantum computer symbolizes the incredible potential of quantum technology and integrated hybrid computing platforms. Quantinuum’s trapped ion quantum computer will work with RIKEN’s famous Japanese flagship supercomputer Fugaku, creating a cutting-edge quantum HPC hybrid platform designed to perform computations that exceed the capabilities of conventional supercomputers – an exciting advancement for scientific research.
