Dik Bouwmeester coauthored the 1997 optical demonstration of quantum teleportation. A joint Bell-state measurement on an input photon and one member of an entangled pair conditionally transferred the input polarization quantum state to the other member. The reported experiment selected a particular detected outcome. The process consumes the shared entanglement and requires classical information about the measurement result; it does not send a usable message faster than light.[ref]
