The aim of this project is to explore the quantum communication and computing, especially quantum cryptography.
Goals
To design and build a DIY platform for single photon emission and detection; as cheap and simple as possible
Photon polarization control and measurements
Demonstrating as much as can be done with the hardware: true quantum level pseudo-random number generator, quantum secured communication, error correction codes, …
Spotting, exploiting and patching hardware vulnerabilities
Finding security bugs and vulnerabilities in quantum physics and patching the universe
Motto
“Will argue about particle-wave duality for food.” — txrxlabs
Status and Roadmap
Status: The founder has left hackerspace, the project is available for adoption.
TODO: Realistic project proposal
