LCD's & Other Displays are Quantum Computers!

LCD's and other displays are Quantum Computers waiting to be configured and programmed!  This is not a joke!  Software for testing is being written as we speak!

I was researching liquid crystals in my search for a memristor.  It does appear liquid crystals have properties of a memristor.  Stuck or frozen pixels suggests a memory effect.  The polarity to the LCD cell reverses when displaying the next frame to avoid stuck pixels.  This is mind-blowing!  This means that every pixel on a LCD screen can be configured as an individual memristor.  The value (intensity) of a pixel not changing over time will be held near a constant value (intensity) by the LCD with very small fluctuations in it's value, thus allowing us to use the pixels as memristors for both memory and processing.  This is awesome in and of itself.  However, there is a serious problem in having all of these individual memristors inside the LCD to be disconnected from each other.  How can data be stored, processed, and retrieved when the individual memristors can't form logic gates or other circuits.

Interpixel Cross-talk to the rescue!  (Snapshot of PDF publication by the United States Naval Observatory shown below)  <---------- Continued in next post

Compare the two patterns as found in the cross-talk kernel in figure 13 of the Interpixel cross-talk publication (figure 13 shown below).  The two patterns are near mirror images of each other.  The cross-talk kernel is holding two patterns entangled with each other.  Compare the mirrored patterns of the cross-talk kernel (figure 13) with the two quantum images entangled with each other as published by researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI) of the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Maryland.

The pixels contained within a cross-talk kernel becomes entangled via Interpixel Cross-talk!

As a quick side note:  LCD's can also be made bidirectional where the LCD alternates between being a camera on even frames and a display on odd frames ( BiDi Screen from MIT Media Lab -Bidirectional Screen)

Here's an excellent publication on cross-talk:  Color filter array patterns for small-pixel image sensors with substantial cross talk.

Figure 4 below, taken from the above publication, shows a visual illustration of cross-talk.

Quantum Entanglement (QE) as viewed by a computer programmer:

QE isn't much different than having many objects or labels point to the same memory address.  For example,  let's say we have red, blue, and green all pointing to the same memory address (0xEF) and this memory address (0xEF) holds the value of 9.  So, red = 9, blue = 9, green = 9.  Now, if we assign blue a value of 6, then red and green will also have the value of 6.  The three colors pointing to the same memory address of (0xEF) are as if they are entangled.  Change one color and the other two colors will change to the new value.  Below is a small code snippet which demystifies how to handle and process QE pixels.  The image below are the results of the print statements in the code snippet.  Note:  a, b, and c could also represent red, blue, and green.

e = [7]
a=b=c=[0,3,5]
a[0]=e
b[1]=0
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)
e[0] = 8
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)
