The reaction of the lamps is unpredictable, and this allows them to generate really random numbers. [Joshua], a Cloudflare employee, talks about the technical details of the system in a recent ...

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

In the Swiss experiment, the camera was used to create a 1.25 Gbit/s stream of random numbers. One worry about any random-number generator is that the numbers could be influenced in a predictable way ...

A new laser’s chaotic light beam lets the device generate multiple number sequences at once, similar to throwing multiple dice at a time.

A perfectly provable random number generator is the bedrock of good cryptography. This scientist wants to make one.

Researchers have built the fastest random-number generator ever made, using a simple laser. It exploits fluctuations in the intensity of light to generate randomness—a coveted resource in ...

Quantum physics can be exploited to generate true random numbers, which have important roles in many applications, especially in cryptography. Genuine randomness from the measurement of a quantum ...

If you’re looking for something to generate random numbers but will also bring some extra flair to the next game night, take a look at this radioactive dice replacement.

More than 310,000 active AWS customers will be able to make unlimited random number requests.

How to Make Random Images Appear in Java. The Java "Random" class lets you generate a random number for your Java apps. You use this number generator to randomize images shown in your apps.
