BGI contributes to the evaluation of new gravity sensors based on cold-atom technologies such as (i) the first commercial Absolute Quantum Gravimeter (AQG) developed by MuQuans company (France) and (ii) the Absolute Quantum Gravimeter GIRAFE designed by ONERA (France) for moving platform.
This activity also directly contributes to the IAG Working Group “Novel Sensors and Quantum Technology for Geodesy (QuGe)” and more specifically to its sub-working group “Quantum gravimetry in space and ground”.
