iSense: A portable ultracold atom based gravimeter — •Lingxiao Zhu, Jonathan Malcolm, Clemens Rammeloo, Michael Holynski, Vincent Boyer, and Kai Bongs — West Midlands Ultracold Atom Research Centre, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Birmingham, UK

The iSense project aims to be a bridge between the latest developments in ultracold atom science and practical applications, turning laboratory-based experiments into portable and robust quantum sensors. Expertise from the iSense consortium has been brought together to achieve significant reductions in the size and power consumption of all major components. The integrated device, iSense, will form a portable compact gravity sensor. This is under construction at the University of Birmingham. The current status and recent results are presented.

The iSense consortium is comprised of:

University of Birmingham;

University of Nottingham;

Ferdinand-Braun-Institut;

Centre national de la recherche scientifique;

Università degli Studi di Firenze;

Leibniz Universität Hannover;

Universität Hamburg;

Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften;

Institute d'Optique Graduate School;

Observatoire de Paris - SYRTE
