World’s first scalable multi-chip quantum processor

World’s first scalable multi-chip quantum processor

Computing, a California-based developer of quantum integrated circuits, has announced it is launching the world’s first multi-chip quantum processor. The processor incorporates a proprietary modular architecture that accelerates the path to commercialization and solves key scaling challenges toward fault-tolerant quantum computers. “We’ve developed a fundamentally new approach to scaling quantum computers,” says Chad Rigetti, founder and CEO of Rigetti Computing. “Our proprietary innovations in chip design and manufacturing have unlocked what we believe is the fastest path to building the systems needed to run practical applications and error correction․” https://lifeboat.com/blog/2021/07/worlds-first-scalable-multi-chip-quantum-processor

Beta’s fully electric Alia aircraft achieves 200+ mile test flight

Beta’s fully electric Alia aircraft achieves 200+ mile test flight

Vermont-based eVTOL developer Beta Technologies on Wednesday completed the longest crewed test flight of its Alia aircraft yet, clocking in at 205 miles (330 kilometers), according to the flight tracking website FlightAware.   The all-electric Alia was operating in airplane mode on only three of its five available battery packs, according to a source familiar with the testing. This positions Beta well for achieving its target range of 250 nautical miles (around 460 km) for flights involving vertical take-offs and landings, which are the most energy-intensive phases of flight. While Beta has yet to conduct extensive free flight testing of Alia...
