How to Use
Your goal is to guide photons from sources to detectors by placing and rotating optical elements on the grid. • Click and drag elements from the toolbox on the right to place them on the game board • Click on placed elements to rotate them 45 degrees • Right-click on elements to remove them from the board • Press spacebar or click the play button to run the simulation and see photon paths • Press R to reset the current level Watch how photons behave with quantum mechanics - they can split, interfere, and change polarization when interacting with mirrors, beam splitters, polarizers, and wave plates. Some elements like detectors will absorb photons when hit. Complete each level by getting photons to reach all required detectors while avoiding mines (which end the level if hit). Pay attention to photon polarization and quantum effects like superposition. Use the level selector to choose different challenges, and check the encyclopedia to learn about each optical element's properties and behavior.
