Adaptive feedback normally provides the greatest accuracy for optical phase measurements. New advances in nitrogen vacancy centre technology have enabled magnetometry via individual spin measurements, which are similar to optical phase measurements but with low visibility. The adaptive measurements that previously worked well with high-visibility optical interferometry break down and give poor results for nitrogen vacancy centre measurements. We use advanced search techniques based on swarm optimisation to design better adaptive measurements that can provide improved measurement accuracy with low-visibility interferometry, with applications in nitrogen vacancy centre magnetometry.
