Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing computing, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing transient state computing with optics. In various embodiments, a chromatic transient state computing system might receive one or more input values and might assign a “chromabit value” to each of the one or more input values. The chromatic transient state computing system might include a plurality of sets of colored light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) and a corresponding set of photoreceptors. Each distinguishable color as detected by one of the photoreceptors might correspond to a combination of colors emitted by a set of colored LEDs, each distinguishable color representing a chromabit value. The chromatic transient state computing system might perform a computing operation using the assigned chromabit values each corresponding to each of the one or more input values, and might output one or more output values resulting from the computing operation.
