Dynex Launches Quantum Sensors and Quantum Keys for Commercial Deployment
Switzerland - September 2026 - Dynex (www.dynex.co), an award-winning global technology leader and solutions provider headquartered in Switzerland, focused on the development, deployment and commercialisation of end-to-end quantum-driven solutions at industrial scale and powered by its proprietary Quantum-as-a-Service (QaaS) technology, today announced the commercial launch of its Quantum Sensors and Quantum Keys.
Building on the commercialisation of Dynex's proprietary quantum-driven technologies since March 2024, through which the company serves industrial customers with quantum-driven solutions at scale, the launch represents a further expansion of Dynex's technology portfolio. The new products extend Dynex's offering beyond its existing quantum-driven computing capabilities, making advanced quantum sensing and quantum-derived security technologies directly available for professional, industrial and enterprise deployment.
"Quantum is here." For Dynex, being a first mover means moving quantum technology beyond its traditional association with laboratories and experimental environments and making it available for organisations to deploy today.
"Quantum technology is no longer confined to the lab - it is here and ready to work for you," said Daniela Herrmann, Founder and CEO of Dynex. "With the commercial launch of our Quantum Sensors and Quantum Keys, we are expanding the range of advanced quantum technologies available to organisations for real-world deployment at industrial scale "
Quantum Sensors
Quantum sensors can detect extremely small changes in magnetic fields, temperature and materials, providing precise insights into physical systems that can be difficult to obtain using conventional sensing technologies.
Dynex is bringing this capability into professional and industrial applications with two room-temperature NV-diamond systems: the Single-Zone NV-Diamond Quantum Sensor and the Four-Quadrant NV-Diamond Quantum Sensor. Built around nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres in diamond, the sensors enable high-precision measurements at room temperature, removing the need for cryogenic infrastructure and supporting deployment across advanced materials, electronics, professional measurement and industrial applications.
Both systems incorporate high-speed optical detection with a 150 MHz small-signal bandwidth and a 2.3-nanosecond rise time, supporting continuous-wave, modulated and pulsed measurement workflows.
The Single-Zone NV-Diamond Quantum Sensor combines a solid-state NV-diamond sensing element with an integration-ready hardware package designed for stable, repeatable measurement workflows.
The Four-Quadrant NV-Diamond Quantum Sensor extends these capabilities across four independently addressable sensing zones on a 10 mm × 10 mm NV-diamond sensing plate, enabling simultaneous, sequential or comparative measurements across multiple locations. Each zone incorporates Dynex's proprietary nested-loop excitation architecture, with dedicated microwave and RF structures providing localised excitation while preserving independent control of all four sensing zones.
Together, the two systems make advanced room-temperature quantum sensing available in deployment-ready hardware for professional, industrial and enterprise applications.
From Space-Based Infrastructure to Quantum Sensing on Earth
Many navigation and positioning systems today depend heavily on satellite infrastructure. At the same time, Earth's orbital environment is becoming increasingly congested: according to the European Space Agency (ESA), approximately 18,840 satellites remain in orbit, around 16,000 of which are still functioning, alongside tens of thousands of tracked objects and a much larger population of space debris.
Quantum sensing creates the possibility of performing certain high-precision measurements directly on or close to Earth, potentially reducing reliance on satellites for specific applications. McKinsey identifies quantum sensing as having significant potential across automotive, aerospace and defence, energy, healthcare and natural-resource exploration. In navigation specifically, McKinsey highlights diamond magnetometers as a technology capable of measuring variations in the Earth's magnetic field to enable positioning and navigation without dependence on GPS satellite signals.
As quantum sensors become more sensitive, compact and deployable, their significance could therefore extend far beyond improvements in measurement accuracy. Certain functions currently dependent on space-based infrastructure could increasingly be replaced by quantum-sensing systems, creating new possibilities across satellite-independent navigation and positioning, geological and materials analysis, environmental monitoring and other industrial applications.
Dynex's development of room-temperature NV-diamond Quantum Sensors forms part of this broader technological transition, as first-mover advancing quantum measurement capabilities into deployable industrial systems.
Quantum Keys
Every encryption key starts with randomness. The less predictable that randomness is, the stronger the foundation on which the cryptographic key can be generated. The security of cryptographic systems depends in part on the quality and unpredictability of the random data used in key generation. Dynex Quantum Keys generate entropy from physical quantum processes, providing organisations with dedicated hardware sources of high-quality random data for cryptographic and security applications. Dynex is launching two Quantum Key products designed to provide organisations with quantum-derived randomness for encryption, authentication and key-generation workflows: the USB Quantum Key Generator and the PCI Quantum Key Appliance.
The Dynex USB Quantum Key Generator provides a portable hardware source of quantum-derived entropy designed to complement existing enterprise cryptographic controls and security infrastructure.
The device generates randomness from quantum avalanche noise using a differential dual-entropy architecture based on reverse-biased Zener diodes. Two independent entropy channels operate in parallel, delivering a combined random-data throughput of 136 Kbit/s, with integrated start-up diagnostics and continuous health monitoring.
Its USB interface and drivers for Windows, macOS and Linux support integration into existing environments, including secure infrastructure, distributed services, sensitive communications and long-lifecycle data-protection programmes.
For higher-throughput enterprise applications, the Dynex PCI Quantum Key Appliance delivers a continuous quantum-random bitstream at up to 250 Mbit/s.
The appliance generates optical quantum entropy by directing light through a beam splitter and measuring the probabilistic distribution of the resulting optical signals using two high-speed photodiodes. The detector outputs are sampled and processed in real time by an RFSoC FPGA, combining high-speed analogue acquisition, digital signal processing and entropy extraction on a single hardware platform.
With direct PCI Express integration into servers, workstations and security appliances, the PCI Quantum Key Appliance is designed for continuous entropy generation in demanding enterprise security environments.
Together, Dynex Quantum Keys provide organisations with deployment-ready hardware for introducing quantum-derived randomness into resilient and future-ready cryptographic infrastructure.
The commercial availability of Quantum Sensors and Quantum Keys marks another step in Dynex's strategy to translate advanced quantum capabilities into technologies that organisations can deploy today across industrial enterprises.
The products are available directly through the Dynex webshop, with international shipping and payment by invoice.
Strengthening the Foundation of Digital Security
Traditional communications - including internet, fibre-optic and mobile networks - transmit information using electrical signals or light pulses that can, in principle, be intercepted. Quantum communication takes a fundamentally different approach, using quantum states of particles to encode or protect information. The broader field applies principles of quantum physics to strengthen communications security.
At the heart of this shift is a powerful principle: you cannot hack the laws of physics. While any complete security system can still contain vulnerabilities in its hardware, software or implementation, quantum security technologies can derive fundamental security properties from physical phenomena rather than relying solely on computational complexity.
Alongside securing the transmission of information, another fundamental component of cryptographic security is the generation of the keys themselves. Every cryptographic key begins with randomness: the less predictable that randomness is, the stronger the foundation from which secure keys can be generated. Quantum-derived entropy harnesses inherently probabilistic physical processes to create this randomness, providing a hardware-based foundation for cryptographic key generation.
