In the not-too-distant future, we may be able to use quantum technology to solve some of the world's biggest problems, such as oil spills, climate change, and terrorism, the Washington Post reports.
According to Popular Science, quantum technology works differently than traditional computing in that it can take advantage of "two-dimensional vector" rather than a single binary digit.
For example, a quantum computer could be used to predict the outcome of a game, predict the outcome of a movie, or even predict the outcome of a sports game.
"The applications are endless," the Post quotes Jonathan Legh-Smith, executive director of UK Quantum, as saying.
For example, new sensors could be used to detect wounds, detect small gas leaks, and even manage climate emissions.
According to Popular Science, quantum technology could also be used to create new types of devices.
For example, a quantum computer could be used to perform calculations in binary, but in a classical computer, "the on/off of voltage on a circuit that represents the binary digits of zero and one (shortened to 'bit' in computing)," Legh-Smith tells the Innovation Platform.
"While this is a drawback in the realm of quantum computing, it can be leveraged to
