Russian scientists plan to develop six quantum sensor systems by 2031

The technologies will be used in navigation, mineral exploration, and biomedical research

Russian scientific centers plan to develop over six systems based on quantum sensors of the second wave of the quantum revolution by 2031. This was announced by Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Scientific Director of the National Center for Physics and Mathematics, Alexander Sergeev.

According to Sergeev, the new sensors will be used in navigation, mineral exploration, biomedical research, and other fields. He noted that the accuracy of navigation systems could reach centimeter level, and compact sensors could be integrated into smartphones in the future, providing the user with accurate time and orientation without external sources.

The creation of sensors is carried out within the framework of the second wave of the quantum revolution, without requiring the expansion of existing quantum mechanics. Russia already has laboratory developments and prototypes, which allows accelerating the introduction of technologies to the market.

By 2030, it is planned to prepare six systems with a high level of readiness, but their number, according to Sergeev's forecasts, may be significantly higher.
