About Zurich Instruments
Zurich Instruments makes laboratory measurement and control instruments, including lock-in amplifiers, impedance analysers, arbitrary waveform generators and quantum control systems, together with its LabOne software. A quantum control system generates and reads the precisely timed microwave pulses that operate qubits. Its ZQCS system is presented on the company's website as control electronics aimed at work towards logical qubits, meaning error-corrected qubits built from many physical ones. The instrument does not make qubits long-lived by itself, and the site does not claim a working logical qubit. The site mentions teaming up with Rohde & Schwarz. The company is Swiss, and its quantum products serve research labs rather than general computing.
Zurich Instruments was founded in 2008 and is based in Zurich, Switzerland. It is listed under Quantum Computing.

What Zurich Instruments works on
Quantum Computing
A quantum computer is a machine that uses the rules of quantum physics to process information. Its basic unit is the qubit. A classical bit is either 0 or 1. A qubit can be in a superposition, a state that combines both, and its measured result is probabilistic.
