There's 'measuring your baking ingredients down to the exact gram' precise, and then there's this.

We spoke to Lia, Founder of startup company Zero Point Motion. Lia's company is using light to make tiny motion sensors 10x to 100x (10,000 times using quantum🤯) more accurate than the ones in our smartphones.⁠

Why does that matter? It could improve:
📍GPS tracking in places where signals drop
🧠The sensitivity of health tech like MRI scans
🤖Safer robotics and autonomy
📸Even reducing blurriness in our photos
