Chapter 259 Why Can't You Walk?

"What do you mean you can't walk?"

Ye Zhou asked suspiciously.

"I don't know how to describe it. Anyway, it is said that it is like just coming down from space. The brain's judgment on the muscle groups that need to be mobilized to complete a certain action is confused. It only takes a little force, but it takes a lot more force without the exoskeleton."

"The confusion caused a loss of coordination throughout the body, so the end result was that they couldn't walk for a long time after the exoskeleton was removed."

"...I didn't expect this kind of problem to exist."

"We didn't expect that, probably because the test time of the previous mechanical exoskeleton was not long, and the general battery life was within 4 hours, but now the test time of the exoskeleton we use exceeds 24 hours, and it is under complex combat exercises. Tested, the transformation of brain reflexes is more profound."

"Is there a solution?"

"Not yet, only by training. However, it is very difficult to solve this difference by training. Many actions in the combat process rely on instinctive muscle memory. If you want to adapt to exoskeletonless and exoskeleton In two states, two sets of muscle memory systems must be trained, and the two systems must be able to switch at any time. In short, there is no good way for the army to give feedback for the time being.”

"All right."

Ye Zhou nodded and stopped asking.

He really doesn't have much to say about it, because he hasn't personally experienced an exoskeleton—in fact, even if he did, he can't come up with any effective solutions.

It's not because it's too difficult for him, on the contrary, it's because it's so easy for him to have two sets of muscle memory.

Because he has a mind programming talent that can be called a bug in this respect.

He can completely solidify the two sets of muscle memory in the subconscious sea of ​​strings, and then trigger them separately on the condition of mounting the exoskeleton, so that he can switch between the two systems extremely smoothly.

However, such skills cannot be popularized to ordinary soldiers.

After pondering for a while, Ye Zhou asked:
"Can recruits adapt to these two sets of muscle memory by increasing the amount of training?"

Chen Hao nodded with a wry smile, and replied:

"Of course it is possible, but the problem is that it almost means doubling the amount of training."

"You know, the amount of training in our army is already very large. If it is doubled, most ordinary soldiers will not be able to bear it—and the mechanical exoskeleton is a common type of equipment, and its purpose of production is to let All ordinary soldiers can use it."

This is an almost insoluble paradox.

Of course, Ye Zhou could say that the mechanical exoskeleton should be used first for the elite team, just like the Spartan team in Halo, but in this way, the role of the exoskeleton would be extremely limited.

Future wars cannot be solved by just a few elite soldiers. The role of a powerful individual in a war will become less and less. Only by trying to solve those basic problems can we maximize combat effectiveness.

It is very simple, each individual in an army of millions of people increases their combat effectiveness by 5%, and a very small part of these soldiers can increase their combat effectiveness by 500%, which has a completely different impact on the entire battlefield.

For this situation, Ye Zhou could only sigh.

Take your time. After all, a new thing, especially a new thing that may bring revolutionary changes, always has to go through a long period of running-in first. I can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry, so I can only take one step at a time. .

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou said:
"I don't care about you. Let professionals solve this kind of problem. However, if I think of any technical solutions, I will still tell you my own ideas."

"You don't want to try it yourself?"

Chen Hao asked in surprise.

He originally thought that after Ye Zhou heard that the mechanical exoskeleton was online, he would immediately pull him to try it. After all, this young man has always been in a state of curiosity about new things.

And in my heart, it is this state of curiosity or expectation that can drive the other party to complete extremely high-intensity work with super high enthusiasm in various projects.

Now, if this state changes, although it may only be a small problem for him, Chen Hao has to think about the impact it will have on the follow-up work from the perspective of the entire country.

However, his worries hadn't completely turned around in his mind, and Ye Zhou's next sentence immediately slapped him in the face.

".When did I say I'm not going to try it? I just said what do I call this? It's just that there is no way to deal with the difference effect after removing the armor."

Ye Zhou on the opposite side took it for granted and continued:
"The meaning of old people like you who don't use mechanical exoskeletons at all, starting from mechanical exoskeletons, to Thor's Hammer, to Titans, to Gundam mechs is the dream of a young man, okay?"

"You don't care about the actual role of the mecha, and how far it will develop in the future, just say it's handsome or not."

"Although it's just a small mechanical exoskeleton now, this is the first step. How could I not be interested?"

Chen Hao listened to Ye Zhou's words in silence, and then replied slightly aggrieved:
"Brother, can I call you brother? I'm only 37 this year. I also grew up watching Gundam, okay? The generation gap between us is not as big as you think."

"Well, the main reason is that you are too bald. I always feel that you and I are not of the same age."

".Thank you. My hair is just a little thinner. I haven't reached the step of alopecia areata. Besides, my hair loss is natural, not because of old age."

Ye Zhou smiled and didn't answer Chen Hao's words. After a pause, he suddenly said with some emotion:
"Speaking of which, although the mecha is really handsome, but from any point of view in reality, the mecha will not become the mainstream development trend."

"There is no way to solve the problem of materials science, and if the materials are solved, more and better firepower delivery solutions will be born."

"A mech with an armor thickness of 20 meters can't hold a [-]-meter-penetrating armor-piercing projectile made of new materials, and the cost of the latter may only be one-thousandth of the former."

Chen Hao nodded and said in agreement:

"It is indeed the case. I have talked with people from Weapons Group before, and their views are basically the same as yours."

"Mecha is a development direction with a very high lower limit but an extremely low upper limit. Just like we are now, just to make a mechanical exoskeleton, we need to overcome many technical difficulties. After these technical difficulties are overcome, if you want to If it continues to develop upwards in this direction, its technological margins will begin to diminish at an alarming rate."

"So, the most sci-fi visions of those engineers for the future mechs are only in the category of Thor's Hammer. It is used for individual soldiers, has an energy field shield, and can meet the needs of high-intensity special operations. Going up, it is estimated that won’t do it anymore.”

Ye Zhou hummed and replied:

"This direction is correct. However, the technical difficulty of Thor's Hammer is no lower than that of Titan and Gundam——by the way, do you still know what Thor's Hammer is?"

"Are you here again? Brother, Halo is a game from 2001. Back then we were still called Halo. How old were you in 2001? 3 years old? You still look down on me. I used to be a high-end player too." Bar."

"Then do you know how to fight a jackal?"

".The plasma gun charged up and hit the gap in the shield, killing him with one shot."

"...You have really played. Well, let's not talk about this with you, when will you arrange for me to try the mechanical exoskeleton?"

Chen Hao turned on his computer to check the latest schedule, and then replied:

"Tomorrow if you're not busy."
