The interactive system of Bloch sphere for quantum computing education

Abstract

With the advent of quantum computers, applications of quantum computing have also begun to develop. Quantum computing is a difficult field for non-experts to understand. However, most of the ways to realize quantum computing are limited to books or software implementation. This study proposes a Bloch sphere interactive system to visualize the quantum computing simulation. Users can input the quantum bit and quantum gate for quantum computing by the mobile App. And then, parallel computing is performed by the FPGA to simulate quantum circuits using OpenCL. The resultant data is then sent to a microcontroller, which drives the motors to rotate the Bloch sphere to visualize the single-qubit quantum states.
