Oxford scientists have taken a bold step toward the future of quantum computing—teleporting quantum information between processors without losing performance. Unlike traditional data transfers, this method uses quantum entanglement to shift information instantly, paving the way for scalable, networked quantum systems. While the experiment spanned just six feet, it proved that quantum processors can be linked, creating a flexible system that could revolutionize computing. As researchers refine this technology, the dream of a quantum-powered internet is inching closer to reality.
