A new laser’s chaotic light beam lets the device generate multiple number sequences at once, similar to throwing multiple dice at a time.

This isn’t a constant current flow, though; there are slight variations over time which can be amplified and used as the random number generator.

Using a single laser, scientists have built a new system that generates random numbers fast and at scale.

This isn’t a constant current flow, though; there are slight variations over time which can be amplified and used as the random number generator.

An international team of researchers has developed a nanoscale random number generator with enhanced long-term stability and reduced power consumption. Random number generation is used to encrypt and ...

From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.
