MQT NAViz - A Visualizer for Neutral Atom Quantum Computers
MQT NAViz is an open-source Rust and Python library to visualize atom movements of neutral atom quantum computers. It is available at https://munich-quantum-toolkit.github.io/naviz/. MQT NAViz is part of the Munich Quantum Toolkit (MQT).
Key Features
- Instant playback of the loaded input neutral atom quantum computation
- Export of the visualization as a video
- Scrubbable timeline to navigate through the visualization
- Fully customizable machine architecture specification
- Support for different input formats
- Fully customizable visualization style and clean predefined styles

Contributors and Supporters
The Munich Quantum Toolkit (MQT) is developed by the Chair for Design Automation at the Technical University of Munich and supported by MQSC. Among others, it is part of the Munich Quantum Software Stack (MQSS) ecosystem, which is being developed as part of the Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) initiative.
Thank you to all the contributors who have helped make MQT NAViz a reality!
The MQT will remain free, open-source, and permissively licensed—now and in the future. We are firmly committed to keeping it open and actively maintained for the quantum computing community.
