QuantumVR Honored at the Comenius EduMedia Awards

The VR game QuantumVR, developed by SZENARIS in close cooperation with the TU Braunschweig, has won an award at the Comenius-EduMedia-Awards in the category “Computer Games with Competence-Promoting Potential”.

Since 1995, the awards have been presented by the “Johann Amos Comenius” Society for Education, Information and Media for outstanding digital media products in terms of education, content and design.

QuantumVR was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research as part of the “Quantum Aktiv” initiative. It provides interested parties with a playful introduction to the world of quantum programming. To this end, the game was designed in the style of an escape room, in which locked-up animals are freed by solving puzzles. These puzzles are small quantum algorithms that have to be created using selected quantum gates. Quantum gates are elementary operations that a quantum computer can perform. The aim is to arouse interest in the complex topic of quantum programming. QuantumVR is used as an introduction to the topic in the new master’s degree course “Quantum Technologies” at TU Braunschweig. QuantumVR also serves as a showcase for trade fairs and similar events.

SZENARIS is honored and delighted to receive this award. If you are interested, try QuantumVR for free on Steam at https://store.steampowered.com/app/2089590/QuantumVR/.
