For organizations responsible for aircraft operation and maintenance, inspecting critical aircraft-engine components is a routine preventive maintenance procedure. These procedures help to ensure the proper operation of the aircraft for flight safety.
In the future, the researchers could boost the performance of their system by refining the materials they used to make qubits or developing more precise control processes. Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash
Quantum computers promise the ability to quickly solve extremely complex problems that might take the world’s most powerful supercomputer decades to crack.
