The reaction of the lamps is unpredictable, and this allows them to generate really random numbers. [Joshua], a Cloudflare employee, talks about the technical details of the system in a recent ...

Numbers that are truly random are hard to come by — even a roulette wheel's results can be predicted if you have the right information. But researchers have been able to find pure randomness ...

A new laser’s chaotic light beam lets the device generate multiple number sequences at once, similar to throwing multiple dice at a time.

It’s a field that need not be expensive or difficult to work in, as [Henk Mulder] shows us with his 4-bit analogue random number generator.

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

There’s no cheating this random number generator The protocol ensures jury duty selections and other draws are truly random and secure ...

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.
