It’s #ENDGAME everywhere!!! No spoiler but we think the power to fight with Thanos is the Quantum theory! Hence, it’s the right time to go through a bit basic things about Quantum before watching the movie.

  1. QUANTUM UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS

Quantum has two unique skills: bilocation (superposition) and entanglement.

Quantum superposition: This is the idea that objects can be in two states at once. And that, in turn, opens the way to much more accurate sensors and navigation systems.

Quantum entanglement: This is the principle that two atoms can still be connected, or entangled, after they have been separated. And if you change one of them, you affect the properties of both. This is the basic idea behind quantum encryption, the technology that will usher in a new era of truly secret, secure communication.

2. WHAT IS QUANTUM COMPUTER?

Quantum’s superposition and entanglement are a game-changer when applying to quantum computer. You can get the entire lot of calculations that are possible all done at the same time and this can be exponentially more efficient than would ever be possible on a normal computer. Extremely complex calculations may take a standard computer up to 150.000 years to solve, but using quantum computer this can be done in a few seconds(!)

Quantum computing creates totally NEW possibilities and ways to approach problems that classical computers have difficulty doing. They provide a new way of simulating and testing the workings of quantum theory, with implications from chemistry, biochemistry, nanotechnology, drug design to search engine optimization for internet searches, management of other types of big data, routing and manufacturing processes, and beyond.

3. THE ROLE OF QUANTUM COMPUTING TO TECHNOLOGY MOVEMENT

Quantum computing could create jobs for the next generation, cure diseases, and above all else — make our nations stronger and safer.

Quantum computing is the next technological frontier that will change the world, including:
🔸More reliable, tamper-proof navigation and timing systems.
🔸More secure communications that signal when data is intercepted.
🔸More accurate imaging, from brain scanners to autonomous car sensors that see around corners.
🔸More powerful computing to handle more data, faster.

Knowing this power, many tech giant guys like Google, Microsoft, IBM as well as governments have also made their moves in quantum computing field because they understand that quantum is truly the next big step in the world of technology and computing. As the forecast, the quantum computing market is projected to surpass $5 Billion through 2020.

4. WHAT’S NEXT?

The year 2018 is the turning year for quantum computing and IBM have just unveiled the IBM Q — the first-ever quantum computer designed for businesses to put to their own use. It’s just the beginning of a many decade adventure where we’ll discover so many things about quantum computing and what it will do we don’t even know — that’s the most exciting part! We, YellowBlocks are so exciting about the speed of technology innovation. How’s bout you?
