| Abstract: | By exploiting a feature of quantum theory known as nonlocality, it is possible to design a new kind of quantum random number generator (QRNG). Such QRNGs are qualitatively different from all existing
random number generators in that the production of randomness can be certified independently of any assumption about the internal working of the device. This feature is known as "device- independence". I will explain the basic principles underlying device-independent QRNGs and the current status of their experimental implementation. I will also briefly present some recent proposals that are much easier to implement experimentally, but which rely on some additional assumptions on the behavior of the devices.
