Quantum Computing Inc. revealed the successful sale of its quantum LiDAR prototype to Johns Hopkins University. Valued at $200,000, the prototype marks a significant advancement in underwater LiDAR technology and will be utilized for testing and evaluation within Johns Hopkins' esteemed research and development program. QCi's quantum LiDAR system boasts unparalleled precision, with a remarkable resolution of 3mm and the capability to operate at depths of up to 30 meters beneath the water's surface.

The system's unique ability to "tune" and time-gate single photons in the LiDAR return signals, along with its capacity to adjust detection in both frequency and phase space, enables quantum measurements that elevate information gathering to new heights. These advancements facilitate pivotal environmental and oceanographic studies, providing insights into underwater targets beyond the reach of conventional LiDAR systems.
