'This is a marriage of AI and quantum': New technology gives AI the power to feel surfaces for the st time

The article from Live Science discusses a groundbreaking integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with quantum technology, allowing AI to "feel" surfaces for the first time. Researchers at the University of Bristol have developed a system where AI, combined with quantum sensors, can detect and interpret the texture and material properties of surfaces through touch. This advancement uses quantum sensing, which involves measuring quantum states to gather information about physical properties with unprecedented precision. The technology employs a quantum sensor made from a tiny piece of diamond with a nitrogen-vacancy center, which can detect minute changes in magnetic fields caused by the interaction with different materials. This not only enhances the AI's sensory capabilities but also opens up potential applications in robotics, where machines could perform tasks requiring a sense of touch, like sorting materials or handling delicate objects, with greater accuracy and sensitivity than ever before.
