A Bell test can rule out local realistic models and has potential applications in communication and information tasks. For example, a Bell's inequality violation can certify the presence of intrinsic randomness in measurement outcomes, which can be used to generate unpredictable random numbers. Nevertheless, a Bell test requires measurements that are chosen independently of environment in the test, as would be the case if the measurement setting choices were themselves intrinsically random. Such situation seems to create a “bootstrapping problem” recently addressed in the BIG Bell Test, a collection of various Bell tests using human choices. Here, we report in detail our experimental methods and results within the BIG Bell Test, specifically for a special type of Bell inequality, known as the measurement-dependent local inequality. With this inequality, even a small amount of measurement independence makes it …
