NVIDIA today announced that Australia’s Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre will add the NVIDIA® CUDA Quantum platform accelerated by NVIDIA Grace Hopper™ Superchips to its National Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Innovation Hub, furthering its work driving breakthroughs in quantum computing.

IonQ, a leader in the quantum computing and networking industries, today announced the renewal of its agreement with Abu Dhabi’s Quantum Research Center – Technology Innovation Institute (TII) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This renewed customer agreement ensures that TII will continue to leverage IonQ’s quantum computing technology to advance the UAE’s position as a global leader in science and technology.

Quantum Machines (QM) today announced the integration of its Observe camera interface with Hamamatsu’s high-speed ORCA-Quest camera. The collaboration between Quantum Machines and Hamamatsu pushes the boundaries of quantum computation, communication, and sensing.

ORCA Computing has announced the first successful demonstration of a hybrid quantum/classical algorithm powered by ORCA’s PT Series System and NVIDIA CUDA Quantum, marking a significant milestone towards real-world applications of quantum computing.

The unique properties of quantum physics could help solve a longstanding problem that prevents microscopes from producing sharper images at the smallest scales, researchers say. The breakthrough, which uses entangled photons to create a new method of correcting for image distortion in microscopes, could lead to improved classical microscope imaging of tissue samples to help advance medical research.
