Scientists exploit the special properties of quantum physics to advance the state-of-the-art in measurement and imaging. These "quantum tools" can be used to probe the nature, history, and fate of the Universe–and can also be applied to down-to-Earth problems, ranging from health to security to navigation. I will describe some examples that have emerged from my laboratory and others over the last couple of decades.
