A Quantum of Sensing—Atomic Scale Bolsters New Sensor Boom

Cars That Think

Future research can aim to push these sensors closer to their theoretical limits of sensitivity, permit more freedom of movement to perhaps let people walk, and add virtual reality and machine learning to boost what researchers can do with the scanners on the experimental and analytical fronts, Brookes says.
