Quantum Teleportation using Quantum Candies

Quantum Candies or Qandies provide us with a lucid way of understanding the concepts of quantum information and quantum science in the language of candies. The critical idea of qandies is intuitively depicting quantum science to the general public, making sense as most of the research in this domain is funded by the taxpayers. The qandies model is already used to explain the essential concepts of quantum science and quantum cryptography. However, teleportation and related concepts are yet to be explained. Motivated by this fact, we investigate and extend the idea of Jacobs and Lin-Mor-Shapira to explain teleportation using qandies. Here, we explicitly design the teleportation protocol and perform a circuit model using qandy gates. The protocol is successful when the correlated qandies are appropriately pre-shared and use of some local operations at both ends. The model we develop can be a valuable tool for science and engineering educators who want to help the general public to gain more insights into quantum science and technology.
