How can we detect even the weakest magnetic fields in the human body – contactless and under everyday conditions – and turn them into precise commands for protheses or into vital data? Answers to this and man other questions will be given at Quantum Effects in Stuttgart on 7th and 8th Oct 2025.
How we can detect even the weakest magnetic fields in the human body – and generate precise control commands for prostheses or vital data from them – Dr Urs Schneider, Scientific Director for Health and Bioproduction Technology, Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation IPA, explains in this interview how quantum magnetic field sensors open up new perspectives in diagnostics, imaging and therapy.
With their IQM Resonance platform, the Finnish-German enterprise IQM Quantum Computers will set new standards for a user-centred quantum hardware approach.
