QuiX Quantum delivered the Netherlands’ first quantum computer to Germany’s DLR aerospace institute, Financieele Dagblad (FD) reports. The machine, named Carina, is also the world’s first quantum computer to rely on photons — light particles — as its qubits. The Enschede-based startup, a spin-off from the University of Twente, developed and delivered the system.
And as usual the most important information is missing: How many qubits?
Carina has eight input photonic qubits and four computational photonic qubits.
According to pay walled Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2026/07/14/heres-the-first-universal-photonic-quantum-computer-you-can-actually-install/
That’s not a quantum computer, that’s a physics experiment.
Exactly. Last I saw we where approaching 1000qbits in 2023.
That site is cancer, there are 1,000 cookie partners. No thanks.
