Low-threshold access to Quantum AI services in production

Before processes such as lasering, cutting, and milling are performed, simulations of the subsequent processes are used to avoid errors. However, existing numerical and data-driven simulations require extensive computing resources and therefore take a disproportionately long time or, in some cases, cannot even be implemented due to their complexity. This is a difficult situation for an industry that is even more dependent than others on optimization and the highest quality in order to remain competitive.

The QUASIM project is investigating how existing simulation methods can be supported or replaced by quantum computing (QC).  By using quantum computing and quantum machine learning, simulations are to be accelerated and realized with higher resolution in order to optimize machining processes and reduce scrap. In the quantum AI services that the researchers are investigating, the quantum technological relationships should be presented in such an abstract way that the user can rely purely on the use of QC-based software.

A technical prototype with a user interface for Quantum AI Services for simulations in laser cutting will be on display at the Hannover Messe (Hall 2, Stand B 10). Visitors can interact directly with the system on site and carry out QML-based simulations.
