Abstract
The Casimir effect is one of the observable consequences of the vacuum fluctuations. The Casimir effect manifests itself as a force between two uncharged conductive plates in a vacuum placed a few nanometers apart. In this work, we try to deduce the Casimir effect directly from the uncertainty principle.
