India To Set Up First Quantum Computing Lab With AWS

The Quantum Computing Applications Lab will provide quantum computing as a service to government ministries and departments, researchers, scientists, academia, and developers, to enable advances in areas such as manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, and aerospace engineering. AWS will provide hosting with technical and programmatic support for the Lab.

The government body said that the Quantum Computing Applications Lab will work with subject matter experts from the government sector to define the problem statements, and make them public, inviting applications from researchers, academia, and organizations to address them. It will then provide select applicants with access to quantum computing hardware, simulators, and programming tools, on-demand and at no cost, via Amazon Braket that enables scientists and developers to build algorithms, conduct advanced simulations, and run experiments.

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) on Tuesday announced it will establish a Quantum Computing Applications Lab in India, in collaboration with the Amazon Web Services (AWS). The lab is being set to accelerate quantum computing-led research and development and enable new scientific discoveries.

What is Quantum Computing :-

A quantum computer is a computation device that makes direct use of quantum mechanical phenomena, such as the superposition and entanglement of atoms, photons, electrons etc., to perform operations on data. Quantum computers are different from digital computers based on transistors [1]. Whereas digital computers require data to be encoded into binary digits (bits), quantum computation uses quantum properties to represent data and perform operations on these data. A theoretical model is the quantum Turing machine, also known as the universal quantum computer. Quantum computers shared theoretical similarities with non-deterministic and probabilistic computers [1, 5, and 8]. It has the potential to perform calculations, billions of time faster than any silicon based computer.

Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) : NavIC

IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system being developed by India. It is designed to provide accurate position information service to users in India as well as the region extending up to 1500 km from its boundary, which is its primary service area. An Extended Service Area lies between primary service area and area enclosed by the rectangle from Latitude 30 deg South to 50 deg North, Longitude 30 deg East to 130 deg East. IRNSS will provide two types of services, namely, Standard Positioning Service (SPS) which is provided to all the users and Restricted Service (RS), which is an encrypted service provided only to the authorised users. The IRNSS System is expected to provide a position accuracy of better than 20 m in the primary service area. Some applications of IRNSS are: Terrestrial, Aerial and Marine Navigation Disaster Management Vehicle tracking and fleet management Integration with mobile phones Precise Timing Mapping and Geodetic data capture Terrestrial nav...

NASA Mars Flight

he helicopter will rise for about six seconds, hover and rotate for about 30 seconds, then go back down. The flight will be autonomous, pre-programmed into the aircraft because of the 15 minutes it takes for signals to travel from Earth to Mars. Ingenuity itself will analyze its position with respect to the Martian surface. After the flight, Ingenuity will send Perseverance technical data on what it has done, and that information will be transmitted back to Earth. This will include a black and white photo of the Martian surface that Ingenuity is programmed to snap while flying. Later, once its batteries have charged up again, Ingenuity is to transmit another photo -- in color, of the Martian horizon, taken with a different camera. But the most spectacular images are supposed to come from the rover Perseverance, which will film the flight from a few meters away. Shortly after this filming, six videos of 2.5 seconds each will be sent to Earth. NASA hopes at least one of them will show th...
