Bierhorst told Gizmodo that perhaps there’s a future in which something relying on this method could be scaled down. On the shorter scale, perhaps they can integrate it into the random number ...

Admittedly, the SB42 Random Number Generator built by [Simon Boak] isn’t exactly something you’d be using for cryptography.

Hardware Scientists have created a random number generator that's truly random—and no, that's not an easy thing to do at all News By Jess Kinghorn published April 16, 2025 ...

Sometimes you need random numbers — and properly random ones, at that. Hackaday Alum [Sean Boyce] whipped up a rig that serves up just that, tasty random bytes delivered fresh over MQTT. [Sea… ...

Random numbers are important for computer encryption, lotteries, scientific modelling, and gambling. Current methods of generating random numbers can produce predictable results.
