Dev builds interactive quantum physics playground with Gemini: fire wavepackets at double slits
BenBlaiszik · x · 2026-11-12
Developer Ben Blaiszik used Gemini (in Antigravity) to create WaveFunction, an interactive web sandbox for famous quantum physics experiments.
Highlights:
- Double-slit experiment where fringes emerge live from single-particle hits on a detector wall
- Presets for tunneling, wave collisions, quantum corral, beam splitter, Bragg lattice
- Hands-on controls: Shift+Drag to fire wavepackets, Alt+Drag to paint potentials, Space to stack coherent pulses
- Powered by a 2D time-dependent Schrödinger solver (symplectic Leapfrog, Born-rule detection)
A companion Kerr black hole raytracer is still in progress.
