Quantum Sensors are a form of quantum technology that have been commercially available for over a decade. There are a variety of sensor types but they all have a common property: they have far greater sensitivity compared to a classical sensor due to quantum properties (i.e. by leveraging the properties of atoms and/or light). This technical module will present the key distinctions between quantum and classical sensors, as well as real-world applications in the energy sector, mineral exploration, healthcare, navigation and hidden object detection. This module will include the quantum physics behind the technology, and is suitable for a STEM background without any prior quantum knowledge.
