【Commentary】Wearing VR glasses, by controlling the handle, you can watch the evolution and superposition of qubit states in the quantum world, and personally build and assemble a superconducting quantum computer. Recently, China's first quantum computer VR teaching experience system was officially released in Hefei, Anhui Province.
It is understood that the quantum computer VR teaching experience system is developed by the Origin Quantum team, which realizes a complete quantum state evolution process and a highly realistic quantum computing training teaching environment in the virtual reality space, and has two modes: teaching and training.
【Explanation】During the experience, users can walk into the virtual quantum computing laboratory, observe the quantum computer and core components, understand the functions of the components and the structure of the quantum computer. Users can also set qubits through the handle to observe the evolution and superposition of qubits.

From the perspective of their teaching, colleges and universities want to let them understand the real quantum computer, first of all, we must understand what it looks like, but a machine is relatively expensive, so we consider that students can intuitively understand what such a device looks like and what key components it has in a virtual environment, which is the first level; The second level, quantum computing from the construction of the appearance to the final evolution of its qubits, as well as its circuit construction, I think these things need some more intuitive scenes to show students.
As a future-oriented technology, quantum computing technology is attracting more and more people to understand through quantum simulators and online tools. Since the development of quantum computers belongs to giant system engineering, the construction of real machines is complex, the cost is high, involving many basic industries and engineering implementation links, and requires a large number of interprofessional talents. The system can meet the practical training needs in the teaching process of colleges and universities and help the cultivation of quantum computing talents.

Now many domestic universities have also begun to set up such majors and disciplines, and are also recruiting corresponding undergraduate to doctoral related talents to do some talent training. We hope that in the teaching scene of the school, we can give them some teaching scenarios and more suitable curriculum construction from the perspective of actual market demand, the needs of employees, including the development of our future market.
At present, the system has been put into use in many domestic universities and popular science venues. Previously, the R&D team has written and published the textbook "Introduction to Quantum Computing and Programming" and launched a full set of quantum computing education solutions, including quantum computing learning machines.

We hope that everyone can recognize the importance of this discipline, including the importance of the market, and from the national strategic level, it must be something we must do now; On the other hand, we also hope that in the specific landing process, let students from the perspective of learning, teachers from the perspective of teaching, everyone feels that this thing is not so difficult, do not be afraid of it, this is what we hope to do now.
