Quantum Sensing and Metrology (QSM)
Events
Quantum Sensing and Metrology (QSM)
QSM aims to cover quantum sensing technologies with real-world applications as well as the development of devices and techniques that will advance sensing performance.
The topical meeting uses the quantum properties of matter (such as quantized transitions in neutral atoms, ions and spin qubits) or quantum phenomena (including entanglement between different qubits or degrees of freedom) to measure physical quantities with unparalleled sensitivity, precision and accuracy.

Industry Programs
These sessions focus on opportunities for commercialization of emerging technologies and understanding the commercial market’s view of imaging optics.
Transformation is the opposite of business as usual. It requires an update to business practices and an enhanced mix of industry and academia. More output from industry is needed within a shorter time, and more input by basic research is necessary as well.
Background
Industry programs will focus on news, challenges, applications, opportunities and scalability in emerging technologies on a system or component level. The program is comprised of:
- Three industry sessions (one held in conjunction with the Optica Imaging Congress). The sessions include panel discussions and a “News Flash” 5/5 format with five-minute talks followed by five-minute discussion.
- Free online content made available each day of the congress: a mix of short interviews, discussions and poster pitches.
The value of industry programs rests upon interaction and discussion. Presentations are brief and to the point so that more session time is reserved for engagement with speakers and other session attendees.
Objectives
The goal of the industry programs is to pave the road toward substantial future growth. There is great momentum in the optical sensing industry since pilot projects like infrared skin moisture measurement have become more accessible and adopted. This momentum should continue to grow and make optical sensing a preferred career path.
