Technology Engineering Here’s how to generate a truly random number with quantum physics Andrew Paul Jun 12, 2025 2:01 PM EDT ...

From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

Many processes for producing these keys — such as the random number generator that's probably on your computer right now — use an algorithm that spits out a seemingly arbitrary string of numbers.

These numbers correspond to the symbols or numbers on the reels of the slot machine. The Time AI random number generator is simply a microprocessor.

ANU and AP13 have partnered to launch the world’s first Quantum Random Number Generator, which operates across 13 blockchains.

Hardware Scientists have created a random number generator that's truly random—and no, that's not an easy thing to do at all News By Jess Kinghorn published April 16, 2025 ...

Cryptography, too, relies heavily on random numbers for the generation of unbreakable keys. Better, cheaper ways of generating and handling such numbers are therefore always welcome.

The method used to generate the digits, a pair of 555 timers sending pulses through linear-feedback shift registers, would at best be considered pseudo-random.

A new random number generator that uses a micro laser developed by researchers at NTU Singapore is a hundred times faster than computer-based systems.
