This project aims to pioneer technologies to observe and control the microscopic world with unprecedented precision, and apply them to realise practical sensors with unrivalled performance. Nano- and micro-scale sensors will be developed that resolve motion smaller than an atomic nucleus, in a classical spin-off from international efforts to study quantum physics at the nanoscale. Record precision will be achieved in thermometry and magnetometry. New tools will be developed for lab-on-a-chip medical diagnosis and thermal imaging, that in future could allow femtolitre diagnosis of blood diseases such as malaria, on-chip genomic analysis, more efficient airport screening, and more precise satellite maps of global and atmospheric temperature.

该项目旨在开拓技术，以前所未有的精度观察和控制微观世界，并将其应用于实现具有无与伦比性能的实用传感器。纳米和微米尺度的传感器将被开发出来，它们可以分辨比原子核还小的运动，这是国际上在纳米尺度上研究量子物理学的经典衍生产品。在测温和测磁中，将达到记录精度。将开发用于芯片实验室医疗诊断和热成像的新工具，将来可以进行血液疾病（如疟疾）的飞升诊断，芯片基因组分析，更有效的机场筛查以及更精确的全球和大气温度卫星地图。
