Quantum Sensing & Subterranean Detection Research Unit
Developing quantum sensors of extraordinary precision for subterranean detection, navigation, and environmental monitoring.
Research Mission
The Quantum Sensing & Subterranean Detection Research Unit develops quantum sensors that exploit quantum mechanical phenomena to achieve measurement precision far beyond classical limits — enabling detection of subterranean structures, navigation without GPS, and environmental monitoring with unprecedented sensitivity. The unit applies quantum gravimetry, magnetometry, and inertial sensing to operational challenges including tunnel detection, underground facility mapping, and precision navigation in GPS-denied environments.
Key Research Functions
Quantum Gravimetry
Developing atom interferometry-based gravimeters and gravity gradiometers that detect subterranean voids, tunnels, and density anomalies with sensitivity orders of magnitude beyond classical instruments — enabling non-invasive underground mapping.
Precision Navigation
Building quantum inertial navigation systems that maintain centimeter-level position accuracy without GPS — applying atomic gyroscopes and accelerometers to provide reliable navigation in underground, underwater, and GPS-jammed environments.
Environmental Sensing
Deploying quantum magnetometers and other quantum sensors for environmental monitoring — detecting magnetic field anomalies, characterizing subsurface geology, and monitoring geophysical signals with quantum-enhanced sensitivity.
