Abstract:
1. A system for generating an image of a target utilizing entangled quantum particle pairs comprising: at least one processor; at least one source of entangled quantum particles configured to sequentially output pairs of entangled particles through first and second channels, the first channel being configured to output first pairs of entangled quantum particles, the second channel being configured to output second pairs of entangled quantum particles, the first pairs of entangled quantum particles being entangled with the second pairs of entangled quantum particles; a first beam splitter operatively connected to the first channel of the at least one source of entangled quantum particles; the first beam splitter configured to split the first pairs of entangled particles for entry into first and second spatial detectors; at least one focusing device operatively connected to the second channel configured to direct the second pairs of entangled quantum particles towards a distant target; the first and second spatial detectors being operatively connected to the at least one processor; each of the first and second spatial detectors detecting one particle of the first pairs of entangled quantum particles, both spatial detectors measuring particles that have not interacted with the target; the at least one processor operating to record the detection of entangled quantum particles by the first and second spatial detectors and create image data representing the target; and at least one display operatively connected to the at least one processor for displaying an image of the target.
