TRT is the main multidisciplinary research unit of the Thales group. It is participating in the preparation of Thales industrial future in strategic R&D fields. TRT coordinates the ADEQUADE project. Moreover, three laboratories from the Physics department are involved in the project:
• The Micro and Nano Physics Laboratory. Its activity is focused on quantum technologies for sensing and communication, photonics integrated circuits, Nano photonics, 2D and nanotube materials.
• The Wave and Signal Processing Laboratory focused on optoelectronic architectures for quantum and classical processing and
The “Unité Mixte de Physique” (UMPHY) is a joint laboratory between Thales, CNRS and University Paris Saclay. Its activity is organized in five main activities: “Spintronics and Nanomagnetism”, “HTc Superconductors and Signal Processing”, “Functional Oxides”, “Neuromorphics” and “Hybrid superconductor/ferroic systems”. Only the Thales team working on “HTc.Recherche & Technologie | Thales Group.

TNO is an independent research organisation in the Netherlands that focuses on applied science. In ADEQUADE, TNO will coordinate the activities carried out in the framework of plenoptic imaging, and in the development of the ghost imaging device. Concerning plenoptic imaging, TNO will be responsible for the experimental activities connected with CPI both with controllable thermal sources and with passive illuminations, from setup design and implementation, to characterization and optimization. Moreover, it will also contribute to the activity toward SNR optimization in both the quantum ghost imaging device, PGI, and CPI, as well as optimization of the refocusing algorithms and routines.

UNIBA is a public University committed to excellence in teaching and research. The action in ADEQUADE will be conducted by the Department of Physics which promotes research activities in the field of basic and applied physics, ranging from quantum technologies and quantum physics, to photonics, material science and nanotechnologies, theoretical physics, particle and astroparticle physics, and medical physics.

Exail is a leading global provider of innovative solutions for navigation, photonics, and maritime autonomy for both civil and defense applications. In ADEQUADE, Exail will be responsible for the design, integration and experimental validation of the laser system and control electronics required for the cold atom gravimeter. It will provide support for the integration of the gravimeter and its testing.

FlySight Srl is the Defence and Security Company of Flyby Srl specialized in the development of Decision Support Systems exploiting edge technologies in the fields of Signal Processing and Big Data Analytics. In ADEQUADE, FLS will contribute to identify operational use cases, definition of system requirements, and technical specifications and objectives.
