Quantum Sensors

Quantum sensors leverage principles of quantum mechanics—such as superposition and entanglement—to measure physical quantities with extraordinary precision. Unlike traditional sensors, they can detect minute changes in magnetic fields, gravity, time, and other phenomena, often surpassing classical limits. These sensors operate by manipulating quantum states of particles like atoms or photons, enabling ultra-sensitive measurements useful in areas like navigation, medical imaging, and fundamental physics research. Their ability to achieve higher accuracy and sensitivity makes quantum sensors powerful tools for advancing technology and scientific understanding.
