How does a quantum computer work? This week, Technology Now is diving into the world of quantum computing. We delve into how quantum computers work, we explore what’s needed to build them and we ask what we should expect from this field of research in the future. Dr Michaela Eichinger, Product Solutions Physicist at Quantum Machines, tells us more.
This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Sam Jarrell look at a story that’s been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations. This episode is available in both video and audio formats.
