Honeywell, I blew up the qubits: Thermostat maker to offer cloud access to 'world's most powerful quantum computer' within months • The Register

Honeywell of all companies is also in on the race towards quantum supremacy!

Honeywell decided to go with a different technology, i.e. ion trap

Honeywell, I blew up the qubits: Thermostat maker to offer cloud access to 'world's most powerful quantum computer' within months • The Register: Super-maker claims breakthrough in quantum supernumerary

"We report on the integration of all necessary ingredients of the trapped-ion QCCD (quantum charge-coupled device) architecture into a robust, fully-connected, and programmable trapped-ion quantum computer. The system employs 171Yb+ ions for qubits and 138Ba+ ions for sympathetic
cooling and is built around a Honeywell cryogenic surface trap capable of arbitrary ion rearrangement and parallel gate operations across multiple zones."
