Quantum-enhanced measurements: beating the standard quantum limit — mentioned by jessriedel

FYI, the shot noise limit is one which exists when experimentalists are restricted to "classical" techniques, i.e. they don't use unusual quantum input states or measurements. That's probably a reasonable assumption for anything that could make it into a consumer product, but "quantum-enhanced measurements" can do better. Giovannetti et al.'s article is pretty good for those with the background: http://www.sciencemag.org/content/306/5700/1330 http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0412078
