At the APS Global Physics Summit 2025, Orange Quantum Systems officially revealed OrangeQS Juice, a new full-stack operating system designed specifically for quantum R&D labs. Juice provides unified control, monitoring, and debugging of complex quantum systems, addressing key challenges such as multi-instrument coordination, system-wide data correlation, and collaborative experiment management. The software is optimized for quantum computing research and qubit development, integrating both hardware abstraction and customizable APIs to accommodate third-party tools.
OrangeQS Juice will be launched in a closed beta program with early adopters including the Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) at Berkeley Lab, Chalmers Next Labs, and the DiCarlo Lab at QuTech. Testing begins in mid-2025, focusing on enhancing the system’s usability, stability, and scalability. Juice was initially developed to support OrangeQS’s 150+ qubit utility-scale test system, OrangeQS MAX, deployed at IQM in Helsinki. The platform has since been generalized to support experimental and flexible setups commonly found in research environments.
Designed for openness and collaboration, the system features an open-source hardware abstraction layer, pre-installed quantum software packages, remote multi-user operation, and experiment scheduling. OrangeQS plans to release the open-source version by the end of 2025, enabling broader community adoption. A live demonstration of Juice will be held at booth #768 on March 18 at 12pm during the APS Summit.
