How does quantum computing evolve from an experimental technology into a practical tool for industry, logistics, and communication?

At the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS, research spans the entire quantum value chain – from developing scalable quantum hardware and control electronics to designing quantum algorithms, software, and concrete industrial applications.

The presentation offers insights into current research preparing the use of quantum computers and algorithms in industrial scenarios. This includes new approaches for reconstructing tomographic volume images in X-ray technology, hybrid quantum-classical optimization methods for logistics, production, and infrastructure, as well as techniques for translating abstract quantum algorithms as efficiently as possible into the “language” of quantum hardware. In addition, technologies that enable the scaling of quantum computers will be presented, such as highly integrated control and readout electronics, shielding and control systems for quantum setups, and real-time control of optical components.

Join Fraunhofer IIS on June 17, 2026, as part of the event series “MQV-Insights – Experience Quantum Sciences on Site.”

The presentation starts at 5:30 p.m., followed by a tour of the antenna measurement hall, the cryostat and laser laboratories, and various exhibits, concluding around 7:30 p.m.
