This approach appears to offer the best short-term prospects for commercial optical computing, since optical components could be integrated into traditional computers to produce an optical-electronic hybrid.
Selline lähenemine tundub andvat parimat lühiajalist väljavaadet kaubandusliku optilise infottöötlusele, kuna optilised komponente saab integreerida tavalistesse arvutitesse, et luua hübriid optikast ja elektroonikast.
