WOLFGANG TITTEL: <\/strong>  <em> It tells you that you can never measure  all properties of a photon at the same time.    It&rsquo;s like you want to measure the speed and the position of a car, and you can pick one or the other but not both, and if you measure the speed of the car, it will move a little bit, it will be somewhere else.  Or if you measure where the car is, at a particular moment, it will change its velocity.     And it simply means, now applied to key distribution, if somebody tries to  measure the key, meaning tries to measure a property of the photon that encodes the key, the key will change a little bit, the car moves from one place to the other, and this is something the receiver can realize, and he also realizes how much eavesdrop[ping has been done. <\/em>  <\/p>\n<p>  Dr. Tittel says this breakthrough is important to protect information in health records, government and military communications. <\/p>\n<p><em> Thanks today to <strong>Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n<p> <strong>FOR INNOVATION ANTHOLOGY<br \/> I&rsquo;M CHERYL CROUCHER <\/strong> <\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\">Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Alberta Innovates launched its consolidation on November 1, 2016<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et-waypoint et_pb_image et_pb_animation_off et_pb_image_5 et_always_center_on_mobile et_pb_image_sticky et-animated\"> \t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/albertainnovates.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/tech_futures_v2_icon.png\" \/> \t\t\t \t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><strong>780-450-5111<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\/\">albertatechfutures.ca<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>250 Karl Clark Road,<br \/>Edmonton, Alberta, Canada<br \/>T6N 1E4<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/AI_Tech_RGB_smallForWeb.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02011-08-02<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safeguarding sensitive communications just got a boost from a team of Alberta researchers.
