RasQberry

The RasQberry project: Exploring Quantum Computing and Qiskit with a Raspberry Pi and a 3D Printer - or: Building a Functional Model of a Quantum Computer at Home

Note: If you are looking for the functional model of IBM Quantum System ONE, please go to https://rasqberry.one. Here is the new project, building a functional model of IBM Quantum System TWO, including several additional updates, e.g. 64-bit OS, Raspberry Pi 5, Qiskit 1.x, more Quantum Computing Demos, integration into raspi-config, etc.

Quick Installation of RasQberry

Quick setup instructions:
Initialize an SD card with Raspberry Pi Imager, using the new RasQberry image based on "bookworm, 64-bit".

Currently (during the beta phase), the image can be found at https://github.com/JanLahmann/RasQberry-pi-gen/releases

Alternatively, this image can be accessed with the Raspberry Pi Imager using a custom repository. On a Mac, run the following command in a terminal

/Applications/Raspberry\ Pi\ Imager.app/Contents/MacOS/rpi-imager --repo https://RasQberry.org/RQB-images.json

or on Windows

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Raspberry Pi Imager\rpi-imager.exe" --repo https://RasQberry.org/RQB-images.json

This image includes Qiskit 1.x and several Quantum computing Demos.

Further instructions will be released, soon.

working with Qiskit

Qiskit is available in the default venv called RQB2. In case this venv is not activated, you can activate with

. /home/pi/RasQberry-Two/venv/RQB2/bin/activate

and list the available Qiskit modules:

(RQB2) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ pip list | grep qiskit
qiskit                 1.1.1
qiskit-qasm3-import    0.5.0

Building the RasQberry 3D model of IBM Quantum System Two

STL files for a 3D model of IBM Quantum System Two will be available soon at GitHub: JanLahmann/RasQberry-Two-3Dmodel
