We facilitate public-private partnerships by connecting industry, education and government to fuel Michigan's economy.
Embracing new technology in manufacturing is much like ascending a mountain—it requires strategy, pacing, and the right gear. Rushing ahead without proper support can strain your systems and your people, but with thoughtful planning and timely technology selection,...
Vibrating Atoms Make Robust Qubits, Physicists FindMIT physicists have discovered a new quantum bit, or “qubit,” in the form of vibrating pairs of atoms known as fermions. They found that when pairs of fermions are chilled and...
Architecting and Implementing the Smart Factory InitiativeLast month we learned how Phoenix Contact helped their client SKF Plan and Implement a Smart Factory. Now we're back with part two! In this second video, Dan Schafer,...
Smart manufacturing success comes from taking a strategic, step-by-step approach to digital transformation—integrating monitoring, MES, ERP, and automation tools to drive long-term efficiency and growth.
MIT researchers have found a way to store quantum information in the vibrational motion of atom pairs, similar to the swinging motion of two pendula, connected by a spring. The quantum register contains hundreds of pairs of vibrating qubits that researchers can coherently control for over ten seconds. If this works out, it will have a huge impact on quantum computing!
