Quantum computing is a multidisciplinary field comprising aspects of computer science, physics, and mathematics that utilizes quantum mechanics to solve complex problems faster than on classical computers.  Quantum computers are available today on the cloud, although they are considered "Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum" (NISQ) computers with a limited number of quantum bits (qubits) that are limited by short coherence time and noisy gates.  However, quantum computers are improving all the time, and it is possible that in the future they could provide acceleration to video processing workflows.  This presentation will give a short overview of quantum computing basics, some methods for representing images in qubits, and describe some of the research on potential video applications of quantum computing.
