Quantinuum plans to produce the Apollo quantum computer by 2029, featuring thousands of physical qubits and potential for executing millions of operations on hundreds of logical qubits.
The first application areas for Apollo will focus on scientific discovery, particularly in materials science, high-temperature superconductivity, and quantum system simulations.
To advance their roadmap, Quantinuum resolved the 'wiring problem', enabling efficient control of qubits with fewer control signals, thus overcoming practical and financial barriers.
The McKinsey study suggests 5,000 quantum computers could be operational by 2030, but widespread usability may not occur until 2035 for solving complex problems.
