Description
is paper provides an overview of a new virtual educator for quantum cryptography. Built in Unreal Engine 4, the educator provides an immersive experience to students in the topics of physics, computer science and cybersecurity that are needed for understanding of quantum cryptographic protocols. e students are led from one scene to the next while solving puzzles that are timed and/or increasingly more dicult. e game adapts to students performance and produces previously non-existing puzzle/scenarios in order to improve student learning.
