Gravitational wave technology from UWA has already given rise to significant spin-offs including sapphire oscillators for radar applications and vibration isolators for airborne mineral exploration. This project will lead to techniques for increasing the sensitivity of already extraordinary sensitive instruments, and could have applications in many areas. The project will strengthen Australia's role in the world wide quest to detect gravitational waves, which is one of the most significant and challenging human endeavours. The project will use the superb national research facility at Gingin. Its content contributes to the Eureka Prize winning Gravity Discovery Centre also located at the site, which is a major centre for science education.

来自西澳大学的引力波技术已经产生了重大的副产品，包括用于雷达应用的蓝宝石振荡器和用于空中矿物勘探的振动隔离器。该项目将导致提高已经非常敏感的仪器的灵敏度的技术，并可在许多领域中应用。该项目将加强澳大利亚在全球探测引力波的努力中的作用，这是人类最重要和最具挑战性的努力之一。该项目将使用金金一流的国家研究设施。它的内容有助于尤里卡奖获奖重力发现中心也位于该网站，这是一个主要的科学教育中心。
