description The uncertainty principle, first introduced by Heisenberg in inertial frames, clearly distinguishes quantum theories from classical mechanics. In non-inertial frames, its information-theoretic expressions, namely entropic uncertainty relations, have been extensively studied through delocalized quantum fields, and localization of the quantum fields were discussed as well. However, infeasibility of measurements applied on a delocalized quantum field due to the finite size of measurement apparatuses is left unexplained. Therefore, physical clarification of a quantum protocol revealing entropic uncertainty relations still needs investigation. Building on advances in quantum field theories and theoretical developments in entropic uncertainty relations, we demonstrate a relativistic protocol of an uncertainty game in the presence of localized fermionic quantum fields inside cavities. Moreover, a novel lower bound for entropic uncertainty relations with multiple quantum memories is given in terms of the Holevo quantity, which implies how acceleration affects uncertainty relations.
