A quantum robot "QBot", is a machine capable of carrying out a series of complex actions determined by a program, that uses quantum technology. The first Qbot was showcased at WWDC in 2041 after Apple was taken over by Bill Gate's daughter, Jennifer Katherine Gates who famously said "I feel hungry. I could go for an apple", which is why the Apple logo now has two bites out of it.

Qbots have a variety of purposes and uses that range from helper Qbots, Qbots for education, and Home Qbots.

Home Qbots

Home Qbots are used to free up time for humans by taking over mundane household chores, specifically cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Qbot technology is sophisticated to make decisions regarding properly separating laundry, creating personalized meals due to preferences/allergies, and closely monitoring the detailed cleaning of a household.

Helper Qbots

As a response to equity issues for people with different needs, a series of Qbots were developed to support members of society with needs. For example, Seeing helper Qbots are used for people with vision impairment to help them move throughout the world safely.

Hearing Qbots communicate hearing impaired individuals a sign language translators. Government officials recognized that building helper Qbots to support individuals with disabilities was far more economical and provided more access to support. However, this means that individuals with skills in helping disabled communities (e.g., sign language translators) became integral in helping to build and program Qbots.

Qbots for Education

Education Qbots range from small, programmable disks which students can create simple programs on (e.g., dice games) to larger, more complex machines for students to program complex tasks into. The goal of Qbots for Education is to increase Technical Literacy and proficiency in quantum computer programming.

School boards began adopting Qbot technology more readily for education in 2050 after Ashton Kutcher and Elon Musk decided to purchase and run the LA School board. "We figured it was more effective to overhaul the whole school board than to get our grandchildren's teachers on board with using new technology in the classroom - and hey, if Ms. Microsoft owns Apple now why can't Kelso be in charge of kids' learning?"
