In this episode, host Dr. Wolfgang Holtkamp sits down with Professor Jens Anders, Director of the Institute of Smart Sensors at the University of Stuttgart, to talk about quantum sensing – and what it means to measure the impossible.
The conversation goes beyond the lab: touching on miniaturized spectrometers the size of a two-euro coin, the race to bring quantum sensors into medicine and wearables, and Stuttgart's role as a global quantum hub. Along the way, a deeper question emerges: what happens when the instruments we use to understand the world become small enough to wear on your wrist?
An episode about curiosity, precision, and the quiet revolution happening at the limits of what science can measure.
