A UK start-up, Quantum Motion, has developed the world's first full-stack quantum computer using everyday silicon chip technology, fitting into three 19-inch server racks. The system, installed at the UK’s National Quantum Computing Centre, is designed to be scalable and fabricated in commercial foundries, representing a milestone in quantum computing. While the system is built on a silicon spin-qubit processor and supports existing software frameworks, performance data and benchmarks are yet to be disclosed. The National Quantum Computing Centre will validate and test the system in the coming months to determine its capabilities beyond being a promising engineering feat.
