Interesting stuff. This has been a field of study for a while but a bit humorous how analog computing has been making a comeback as we head into more advanced applications. As far as interference I wonder if @Yash Naidu can lend any experience from his work in Lidar to how feasible reliable optical transmissions like this could be? Not apples to apples but some of the same principles may apply..
This studies and research has been going for long. Wondering how it will affect and change the industry
Interesting read @Saßì .
I remember reading about photonic chips while i was studying about Spintronics at one point of time, i think in 2018 ish.
Spintronics- spin transport electronics is another concepts that related to physics-electrical circuit that uses spin of electronics for storing bits.
For Lidars, i do think it these chips can be used for point cloud registration and processing of the data but not while collecting the data directly as these chips are sensitive to light.

I did also read about the quantum chips, well, we got the quantum computing working in big tech companies now a days but not made entirely commercially available.
I do wonder how these inventions of innovative technologies would combine for any specific application.
