The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) starts from 2027 to extend the physics discovery potential at the energy frontier. The HL-LHC produces experimental data with a much higher luminosity, requiring a large amount of computing resources mainly due to the complexity of a track pattern recognition algorithm. Quantum annealing might be a solution for an efficient track pattern recognition in the HL-LHC environment. We demonstrated to perform the track pattern recognition by using the D-Wave annealing machine and the Fujitsu Digital Annealer. The tracking efficiency and purity for the D-Wave quantum annealer are comparable with those for a classical simulated annealing at a low pileup condition, while a drop in performance is found at a high pileup condition, corresponding to the HL-LHC pileup environment. The tracking efficiency and purity for the Fujitsu Digital Annealer are nearly the same as the classical simulated annealing.
