This video presentation delves into the diverse landscape of quantum computing technologies. We explore how quantum hardware systems are realized using both natural and synthetic qubits.

Natural qubits in trapped ions, neutral atoms, and photonics offer stability and high gate fidelities, albeit with varying operational speeds. On the other hand, synthetic qubits, including superconducting loops and silicon quantum dots, provide their own set of advantages and challenges.

We take a closer look at each technology's workings, pros, and cons, highlighting aspects like qubit coherence time, connectivity, and companies driving advancements.

The presentation concludes by discussing the maturity levels of different quantum technologies and their Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) and providing an overview of quantum computer roadmaps.
