Abstract

A security system uses a source capable of producing an entangled state of a sensing mode and a reference mode. The sensing mode has a path that enters an area around an object being secured. A state measurement system in the security system can measure a combination of the sensing mode after traversal of the sensing path and the reference mode after traversal of a reference path.
