LUCIDAC
LUCIDAC is the world’s first reconfigurable discrete analog computer. The small system primarily serves as a technological demonstrator for early adopters and education. While the capabilities in terms of the problem size are limited (it can solve arbitrary mathematical ordinary differential equations up to 8 unkowns, 8 multiplications up to hundreds of summands with a sparse system matrix) it can still be interesting for electronic laboratories given it excellence in low latency real-time applications. One of such use cases is in test facilities and control systems, where only a small number of observables has to be tightly tracked or predicted.
The computer was released by Anabrid in October 2024.
