Abstract:
It is predicted that quantum computers, which become more powerful and practical with
each passing day, with the perfection of superposition states, coherence time and fidelity,
error correction, power consumption and noise, will show a higher problem solving
performance in many areas than existing systems with increasing speed. Some high-tech
companies have quantum computer designs that they actively use from the research and
development stage to the problem solving stage, and different architectures are used in
these computers.
The "IBM Quantum Experience" laboratory, which is the source of the study, offers an
open access and multi-alternative option with its cloud-based quantum computing
platform. In this platform, programming can be done using quantum gates via a web
interface called quantum composer.
Significant advances have been made in virtual reality and augmented reality technologies
and virtual reality-based browser platforms have been developed. In this study, the
mathematical models of quantum gates, inspired by IBM quantum composer and
Microsoft's Q# training materials, were transferred to the virtual reality environment with
a software procedure, then the necessary arrangements were made for compiling the
generated codes in the cloud computing system, and the design of the virtual reality-based
quantum computing programming platform was carried out.
The study basically consists of combining the principles of quantum computing and the
virtual reality approach, which is an example of human computer interaction studies. In
the design environment, there is both a comprehensive three-dimensional programming
platform and a real-time web browser based on virtual reality. Users can perform
operations in accordance with the procedures in the virtual reality environment and can
compile over quantum computers via a VR-based web browser
