Ascertain the physical systems that future quantum technologies will rely on

Ascertain which specific physical systems (hardware platforms) will ultimately underpin quantum technologies, including quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum communication, by identifying the dominant implementations on which these technologies will rely.

Background

The paper presents an educational paper of Quantum Picturalism (QPic) and discusses broader implications for quantum technologies. In the conclusion, the authors note a field-level uncertainty about which physical systems will serve as the foundational platforms for quantum technologies, despite their view that classical systems are insufficient for many emerging tasks.

This unresolved question is independent of the educational method evaluated, but contextualizes the long-term trajectory of quantum technology development across computation, sensing, and communication.
