It then discusses developments in quantum computing and sensing technologies. Potential applications in robotics are then considered and finally, brief conclusions are drawn.FindingsQuantum technologies are the topic of a rapidly growing global R&D effort. Quantum computing has the potential to conduct conventional computations far more rapidly than traditional computers and solve complex problems that are presently challenging or impossible. If realised, robotic applications could include enhanced route planning, machine learning and data fusion. Quantum position and magnetic field sensors have the potential to revolutionise navigation systems in airborne, land and marine robots and overcome limitations of GPS and inertial measurement units. Magnetic sensors also have a role in health care in the control of robotic prostheses and exoskeletons and in brain–computer interface techniques. Quantum radar, lidar and imaging systems stand to outperform their conventional counterparts, and applications are anticipated in military and civilian robots. Quantum technologies are still at an early stage of development, and much progress will be made in the future, opening up many further robotic applications.Originality/valueThis study provides an insight into quantum technology developments and their potential applications in robotics. | |
