0 the act of travelling by an imaginary very fast form of transport that uses special technology or special mental powers, or of causing someone or something to travel in this way:
Is a parking-free city a pipe dream, achievable only when we perfect Star Trek-type travel by teleportation?
In the movie a love-struck scientist is transformed into a monstrous man/fly hybrid after the teleportation device he has invented goes horribly wrong.
Teleportation is already possible at a quantum level, scientists having successfully transported the information about an atom across a lab instantaneously.
An idea often discussed is the teleportation machine of science fiction.
The idea of teleportation is to disintegrate an object in one place making a perfect replica of it somewhere else.
This is sufficient for entanglement swapping, but not logic gate teleportation.
The authors give logical characterisations of entanglement and information-flow, using a teleportation protocol as an example.
