The World's First Affordable Quantum Computer
The Qubibyte Quadra represents a breakthrough in making quantum computing accessible. Using liquid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) technology, the Quadra is a fully standalone quantum computer in a compact, portable form factor that fits on a desk. Unlike superconducting quantum computers that require near-absolute zero temperatures, NMR-based systems operate at room temperature, dramatically reducing complexity and cost.
With a target price of $800, the Quadra opens quantum computing to universities, research labs, startups, and individual researchers who previously couldn't access this transformative technology. Perfect for education, algorithm development, and proof-of-concept experimentation.
The Quadra features a modular design with purchasable sample vials that can be inserted into the device. Each sample contains specially prepared molecular compounds with different numbers of coupled nuclear spins, providing 1 to 4 qubits depending on your needs. Simply insert the sample vial into the device and you're ready to run quantum circuits. Start with a single qubit for learning the basics, then scale up as you advance.
The Quadra uses a permanent magnet assembly to generate a stable magnetic field (B₀), while radio-frequency pulses from a transceiver coil (B₁) manipulate the nuclear spins of specially prepared molecular samples. The system detects the Free Induction Decay (FID) signal to measure quantum states after computation.
