The state government hopes using Q-CTRL’s quantum technology will allow it to have a transport system that ‘talks’.
Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW) has partnered with quantum computing firm Q-CTRL to determine how the latter’s technology can help with the state government’s transport network. The partnership, Minister for Transport and Roads Andrew Constance said, could see the « world’s smartest computer » be used to tackle Sydney’s complex transport problems, including updating schedules in real time if there is crowding on the network. « This is a rare opportunity for some of our leading transport innovators and quantum computing experts to come together to tackle complex transport network management and congestion problems, » Constance said.
