VCSELs are no longer just for data centers. Now, with new materials, VCSELs can be used for detection of select gases, as Quantum Clocks for Position, Navigation, & Timing (PNT), for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), select high power applications, and even LiDAR – all while retaining their very small size and low price point. VCSELs shine in Satellite and Space implementations – in part due to their favorable SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) characteristics. VCSELs also excel in Neuromorphic Computing**, classifying images quickly, which will be crucial for safe Autonomous Driving.

Neuromorphic Computing is, in addition, covered extensively in EPIC’s “3D Imaging Utilizing VCSELs” report, also available now.
