5 ways you use quantum technology every day
5 ways you use quantum technology every day
You might not know that you use quantum technologies every day pretty much constantly. Here I have summarised five of them, but there are many others. Quantum physics is often seen as a weird part of physics, far removed from our every day lives but this couldn’t be further from the truth. The entire modern world exists because of our understanding of quantum physics!

Map of business
Make map of quantum physics!!
Please make The Map of Engineering
Computers are possible because of India
And Aryabhata
As we gave the concept of :- ‘ 0 ‘

Thank you for visualizing your thought processes. Extremely helpful in the instances where language fails or connotation interferes.
There’s also the idea that internet communication is happening across vast stretches of space between individuals who are being affected by things that they do on opposite ends of the world. That’s pretty er… "quantum" ?
I’m listening, and impateintly, haven’t heard you speak about our brains….
Wow …
WOW! I find quantum mechanics, in general, absolutely fascinating. I knew computers, CPU’s, GPU’s, RAM, SSD’s and things like that were a result of our understanding of quantum physics. (I have had a few very long, very in-depth conversations with an ex-hardware engineer for a rather large computer company, who kindly and rather thoroughly educated me on how some of these technologies functioned on a component and bit by bit level.)
I did not know GPS, Cameras and especially MRI machines leveraged these properties.
You must enjoy what you do. I have been trying to think of ways to get my young cousins interested in it because some of them are extremely interested in science and are around middle school to high school range and as automation and machine learning become more prevalent I suspect it is a wise long-term investment, when it comes to value, cost, time, etc.
How do you get middle school and high schoolers interested in quantum mechanics? Hmmmm
Please
Make a map of memes!
Great video brother exactly what i’ve been looking for I appreciate it thank you
That is amazing……
It would be great if you could explain how quantum properties are doing all these.
I am the one who translated this episode in Arabic
Your presentation are always the best
How dose nuklerplans work, and maby thoryum
You forgot quantum torpedos.
the map of dumbness
Could you use quantum entanglement to communicate with individuals who are very far away? A hundred lightyears away?
Currently our fastest way to transmit information is only as fast as the speed of light… But if we could use quantum entanglement to transmit information we could communicate instantly even over a very very very long distance!!!
Do you think this could be possible?
I really wish USB sticks were called "Quantum Data Drives"
surprisingly, all of these technologies do exists in your smartphone.
God id fuck him so hard
Oh yea
THANKS
Make a version with all the maps joined together into 1 giant poster
A very good video that explain how quantum mechanics is important and it isn’t a sort of magic that nobody understands!!! Thanks
Life only exists, as the base of all matter is quanta.
is he single?
I really appreciate your channel. When you can make a map about aerodynamic please
Let’s make 5 (or more) videos to really show what you assert.
Please make a map of engineering!
Grade 11 online chem/bio teacher here, this video is gold…I am always looking for real world examples to improve understanding. It is much easier for bio then for my chem students. I am new to your page, will share and check out more videos!
Wonderful videos and would you please tell which software or technique you use to create these videos.!!?
Really fascinating thanks !
You forgot your nose. It also uses Quantum physics.
I would appreciate quantum physics more if some people didn’t use it as an "evidence" for alternate reality and free will. lol
Khazam: Can we have a map for particle physics? please? 🙂
thank you
Can you help me understand if and if so how quantum physics are making internet and phone technologies work too? Thanks !
What type of software do you use for animation
Do anthropology
…but god doesn’t play dice! 🙂
Good evening to Domain of Science. Thank you so much for explaining quantum technology everyday. Thank you so much sir.
I liked and disliked this video at the same time (-:-(
Cara, achei muito bacana esse vídeo. vou usar ele num trabalho, gostaria de ter uma referência bibliográfica para poder citar esse seu excelentíssimo trabalho.
Please tell me how can I buy your posters of physics and quantum physics.
Great video.
Ohhh my God just loving it and being a physics student watching the application of my studies …. want to study more about it and research in quantum physics as these part of physics still needs to study more and more
Found the video uninteresting ’cause you haven’t told how quantum physics works in these things. Except that the video was marvellous
You just put "quantum" before everything, don’t you? 😅
