From 24-26 February, researchers from the Institute of Electronics and Computer Science (EDI), Mg. sc. ing. Andrejs Cvetkovs and electronics technician Niks Nadziņš, travelled to Cento, Italy, within the framework of the A-IQ Ready project to carry out measurements and testing of a quantum sensor integrated into an e-motor together with partners from TEKNE S.p.A. and Arquimea.
Quantum magnetometers have a wide range of applications, including high-precision positioning, microscopy, and system control. The objective of the experiments was to analyse the response of the quantum magnetometer under different motor rotational speeds and load conditions.
The measurements posed significant technical challenges, as the motor generates an intense magnetic field during operation, which substantially affects sensor performance. Therefore, the measurement methods were adapted and optimised to ensure data accuracy and reliability.
