On the smallest scales, our universe gets weird. Particles act like billiard balls or waves on water, depending how you probe them. Properties can't be measured simultaneously or tend to smear ...

A quantum device that can determine its position in three dimensions is more accurate than non-quantum versions. Vehicles could use it to navigate even if GPS stopped working. One way to keep track of ...

Most navigation today relies on a global navigation satellite system (GNSS), such as GPS, which sends and receives signals from satellites orbiting the Earth. An alternative – the quantum ...

A prototype quantum sensor with potential applications in GPS-free navigation, developed at Imperial College London, has been tested in collaboration with the Royal Navy. The test marks an important ...

For decades, GPS has been the backbone of modern navigation, guiding everything from airplanes to food delivery drivers. But ...

Imperial College London and engineering firm M Squared have developed a new "quantum accelerometer" that can provide precise locations without any external system. Share on Facebook (opens in a new ...

The 'spooky action at a distance' that once unnerved Einstein may be on its way to being as pedestrian as the gyroscopes that currently measure acceleration in smartphones. The "spooky action at a ...

CPI Electron Device Business – TMD Technologies Division has successfully completed sea trials of its cquantum-hybrid inertial navigation system (INS) aboard the THV Galatea, operated by Trinity House ...

On June 30, 2022, the European Commission selected the CARIOQA-PMP (Cold Atom Rubidium Interferometer in Orbit for Quantum Accelerometry – Pathfinder Mission Preparation) project as part of the ...

Aviation giant Airbus is among 16 participants in a new European research project that is aiming to develop a laser-cooled atom quantum sensor for potential deployment in space. The "CARIOQA-PMP" ...

ANN ARBOR—The "spooky action at a distance" that once unnerved Einstein may be on its way to being as pedestrian as the gyroscopes that currently measure acceleration in smartphones. Quantum ...
