Gravitational-wave observations across multiple frequency bands will be the future of gravitational-wave astronomy, similar to the development of electromagnetic observations. In this talk, I will focus on ground-based detectors, and talk about the efforts in improving the detector sensitivity both at the low and high-frequency end of the spectrum. I will highlight two technologies: the 6D seismometer and the quantum filter. Apart from the application to gravitational-wave detections, these two also allow us to explore quantum behaviours of macroscopic objects and new principles of high-precision measurements.
