Origin Quantum has launched its self-developed fourth-generation “Origin Wukong-180” superconducting quantum computer and has begun accepting quantum computing tasks from around the world, its developer told the Global Times.
According to the company, the latest breakthrough marks the first systematic integration of China’s quantum computing power into the artificial intelligence (AI) application ecosystem, representing a key step in advancing China’s quantum computers from being “usable” to becoming “practical and accessible.”
The computer is equipped with a single-core 180-qubit superconducting quantum chip, achieving 100-qubit-level quantum computing capability under a single-chip architecture.
There is a major leap in technology and computing power in the new version, compared with the previous one. It has four key systems
- a quantum computing chip system,
- a quantum computing measurement and control system,
- a quantum computing environment support system, and
- a quantum computer operating system
The predecessor, the superconducting quantum computer “Origin Wukong,” was equipped with a single-core 72-qubit quantum chip and went online on January 6, 2024. The system has now operated stably for more than two years, receiving about 50 million remote visits from users across more than 160 countries and completing more than 900,000 global quantum computing tasks. In 2025, it also achieved China’s first overseas export sale of quantum computing power.
