A Unified Vision for the Future of Photonics Testing

This partnership is driven by a shared commitment to deliver groundbreaking AI driven and self-optimizing solutions to the photonics industry. By combining Axiomatic_AI's reasoning-based, artificial intelligence with MPI Corporation's industry-leading wafer probing systems and automation software, and leveraging Lightium AG's advanced testing infrastructure and deep expertise in ultra-high-speed photonic device measurements, the collaboration aims to bring fully integrated, intelligent photonic integrated circuit (PIC) test solutions to market.

Together, the three companies are creating a unified AI platform that addresses the growing complexity and performance demands of characterizing photonic integrated circuits—unlocking new levels of automation, precision, and scalability for next-generation applications.

Disruptive Value Creation Across Hardware and Human Resources

The Intelligent, Autonomous, and Integrated Test Solution (IAITS) introduces a new paradigm in photonic integrated circuit (PIC) testing, delivering transformative value across both technology infrastructure and human capital.

Key Benefits of IAITS:

IAITS will be commercially available as an advanced software add-on package for MPI Corporation's wafer probing systems. Designed to support both R&D and high-volume production environments, the solution sets a new industry benchmark for efficiency, precision, and scalability—ultimately lowering the total cost of testing and accelerating time-to-market for next-generation PIC devices.
