“…Also, a shaken-lattice interferometer has been experimentally realized through a specific phase modulation of the lattice [611]. Recent extensions include remote control of a BEC [282,364] and state preparation of a BEC in an optical lattice [209] as highlighted in Fig. 1 in Sect.…”

Quantum optimal control, a toolbox for devising and implementing the shapes of external fields that accomplish given tasks in the operation of a quantum device in the best way possible, has evolved into one of the cornerstones for enabling quantum technologies. The last few years have seen a rapid evolution and expansion of the field. We review here recent progress in our understanding of the controllability of open quantum systems and in the development and application of quantum control techniques to quantum technologies. We also address key challenges and sketch a roadmap for future developments.

“…155 The goal of the Alice Challenge was for users to optimize the number of rubidium-87 atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate, or BEC, 156,157 a cloud of extremely cold atoms that can then be used for a variety of quantum technology experiments. We found that citizens operating the experiment remotely 158 were able to create larger BECs than the local experimental experts, 159 a difference that we attribute largely to interfacing and gameplay (Fig. 15), that is, we built a simple and intuitive interface that allowed citizens to collaborate (in that any player could copy a previous solution and modify it) to solve the problem-at-hand; such intuitive interfacing is key to success when considering citizen science projects, quantum or otherwise.…”

We provide an extensive overview of a wide range of quantum games and interactive tools that have been employed by the quantum community in recent years. We present selected tools as described by their developers, including "Hello Quantum, Hello Qiskit, Particle in a Box, Psi and Delta, QPlayLearn, Virtual Lab by Quantum Flytrap, Quantum Odyssey, ScienceAtHome, and the Virtual Quantum Optics Laboratory." In addition, we present events for quantum game development: hackathons, game jams, and semester projects. Furthermore, we discuss the Quantum Technologies Education for Everyone (QUTE4E) pilot project, which illustrates an effective integration of these interactive tools with quantum outreach and education activities. Finally, we aim at providing guidelines for incorporating quantum games and interactive tools in pedagogic materials to make quantum technologies more accessible for a wider

“…It is found that with an intuitive interface that pared down the required information into an illustration of just what was absolutely necessary, the amateurs were able to make larger clouds than the experimental experts had previously [26]. In general, the experimental methods used to open the lab up to external users required an advanced queueing system [56]. Hopefully, the description in Ref.…”

As the second quantum revolution comes to pass with its potential to revolutionize our lives, it becomes increasingly relevant to educate the public about quantum mechanics. Quantum literacy is also a formidable challenge and opportunity for a massive cultural uplift, since it fosters the possibility for citizens to engender their creativity and practice a new way of thinking. However, quantum theory is highly counterintuitive, manifesting in a reality we have no direct experience of, and represented by mathematically difficult formalisms. Here, we propose that games can provide a playground for engaging forms of experimental and symbolic literacy accessible to anyone. We discuss the theoretical foundations underlying this idea in the framework of a global educational strategy, illustrate existing examples of its implementation along different dimensions related to educational, citizen-science, and age-related contexts, and envision future challenges.
