RICHMOND, Va. and LEESBURG, Va., Oct. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation (VIPC) introduced at this time a partnership with Quantum Computing Inc. (QCI) (NASDAQ: QUBT), a Virginia-based rising chief in accessible quantum computing, to find out optimum flight trajectories for unmanned aerial automobiles leveraging QCI’s Path to Quantum consulting, Qatalyst™ software program, and Quantum Photonic Systems {hardware}.
QCI will apply its quantum photonic techniques to a vital risk-management use case involving the number of flight trajectories for unmanned aerial automobiles. Under this effort QCI will determine the optimum time, pace, and route for drone plane to traverse amongst locations, whereas satisfying airspace constraints and minimizing dangers associated to climate, obstacles, and different plane by way of using QCI’s Entropy Quantum Computing (EQC) techniques.
Risk-based determination making is a real-world downside recognized as a key strategic precedence by the Federal Aviation Administration. QCI’s Entropy Quantum Computing techniques are well-suited to fixing advanced optimization issues, and present the potential to rapidly determine optimized flight paths that decrease prices and in-flight dangers.
VIPC is the nonprofit commercialization and seed stage financial growth driver within the Commonwealth that leads funding, infrastructure, and coverage initiatives to assist Virginia’s innovators, entrepreneurs, startups, and market growth methods. VIPC collaborates with native, regional, state, and federal companions to assist the enlargement and diversification of Virginia’s economy and on the growth of rising applied sciences like quantum computing inside the Commonwealth of Virginia to enhance competitiveness and appeal to extra industrial alternatives to the state.
As a a part of this venture, QCI and VIPC plan to leverage sensor and micro-weather knowledge collected by the Virginia Flight Information Exchange (VA-FIX), an data hub targeted on offering authoritative state and native knowledge in assist of unmanned aerial techniques. VIPC sees these parts as key modern applied sciences for superior air mobility in Virginia.
“Our partnership with Virginia-based company QCI is designed to test and discover the impact of quantum computing solutions on complex problems,” mentioned David Ihrie, CTO and VP for Strategic Initiatives at VIPC. “Emerging technology will require faster, more efficient quantum computing solutions. We are working to ensure Virginia is prepared for safe and efficient technology integration.”
“VIPC and the Commonwealth of Virginia have demonstrated their technology leadership with this project, focusing on real world problems involving quantum computing. QCI is excited about the opportunity to partner with VIPC on this project,” acknowledged Robert Liscouski, CEO of QCI. “QCI is eager to demonstrate that quantum computing offers business solutions for today’s problems, not just in the sense of computing power, but in other applications including LiDAR and quantum networks.”
