Real machines taken apart in the browser, with their real numbers: Spindl, a 7,200 rpm hard drive, and Quantum, a photonic quantum computer modelled on Quandela's Belenos (not affiliated). Every gauge reads the model that moves the parts. Visit it. | hard-drive quantum-computing simulation threejs |
