The Amazon Web Services Center for Quantum Networking (CQN) completed a trial of quantum-secured communication last week to investigate Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) across an optical fiber link in Singapore. AWS uses Singapore to test a quantum-secured network in the metro area.
Key distribution protocols enable the transmission of cryptographic keys over an unreliable channel between distant locations. According to Joe Fitzsimons, CEO of Singapore-based Horizon Quantum, the security of quantum key distribution is unique in comparison to that of conventional protocols because its security is derived from the laws of physics rather than from assumptions about the computational power of an eavesdropper.
In order to complete the trial, Fitzsimons’ startup collaborated with CQN, the National Quantum-Safe Network (NQSN) at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), and Fortinet. It provides software development and deployment tools for quantum computing applications.
Connecting two QKD devices located three kilometers apart was the goal of the trial. The accomplices likewise set up a VPN burrow that utilized both QKD innovation and AWS Edge Figure equipment to run the tests.
According to Fitzsimons, demonstrating quantum-secured access to its systems is an initial step toward making it possible to secure application deployment on cloud-based quantum computers.
This point-to-point quantum network implementation was an important step toward exploring ways in which commercial-off-the-shelf quantum technology performs in a real-world setting, demonstrating to our customers how it can be used in combination with AWS services, states Amazon Web Services.

We believe that the Honda AWV can be a useful tool for assisting construction teams and increasing safety and efficiency on the jobsite. We aim to address issues such as labor shortages and improve environmental performance by utilizing Honda’s decades of experience developing mobility technology that is dependable, safe, and clean, said systems engineering manager Jason VanBuren.
Honda claims that this generation of AWVs is large enough to haul two pallets, has improved obstacle detection, uses LiDAR sensors to help navigate in areas where GNSS is weak or unavailable, can handle rough terrain, and is fully programmable. It can even make stops along predetermined routes.
The vehicle can be worked independently or by controller at speeds more slow than your typical golf truck (up to 10 mph), so no supplanting human drivers in a hurry is not likely. Honda stated that it is looking into ways to add robotic tools to the vehicle to make it more useful.
Singapore will deploy 5G-enabled robots to clean its rivers, patrol its streets, and build Hyundai EVs. Singapore will also beef up its workforce of robots. According to The Straits Times, the country’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) launched a $30 million fund in 2021 to try to drive and commercialize 5G. The unmanned river cleaning EVs will mean that humans won’t have to board boats and work in the hot sun, avoiding significant risks like falling into the less-than-pristine waterway. Weston Robot will operate the boats together.
At least 100 5G-capable robots will be installed on the factory floor of the nation’s Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Centre. These robots are expected to increase productivity and quality control as they build up to 30,000 vehicles annually by 2025.
Last but not least, a human security officer shortage will be alleviated by surveillance robots. The combination patrol car and robot will be mobile and able to be controlled remotely, in contrast to security cameras.
