Atomionics
Atomionics is leveraging atom interferometry to harness the potential of wave-nature of atoms, and pinpoint resources critical for the energy transition in a fraction of the time, with moving-base gravimetry and AI-based 3D models of the subsurface
Building sensors for underground mapping is extremely challenging due to limited accessibility, harsh conditions, power constraints, data transmission issues, low mapping accuracy, calibration difficulties, maintenance challenges, and its resulting high costs.
With Gravio™, the first commercially available absolute quantum gravimeter optimized for moving-base applications, Atomionics enables application areas that were not feasible before. Gravio™ makes the autonomous acquisition of drift-free data on a moving platform possible. Its unique datasets can then be used to generate 3D models of the subsurface with Oreo™, an AI-based geophysical processing platform that allows to pinpoint resources, reduce false positive drills, and estimate the amount of resources present.
