Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Lying honestly on the bed with a helmet, Chen Yushan obediently emptied his brain as instructed by Lu Zhou.

Gradually, a trace of sleep began to come to mind.

Just when she couldn't help yawning, thinking that when she was about to fall asleep soon, she felt a tingling sensation at the back of her neck.

Immediately after, something unexpected happened to her.

The darkness imprisoned around her sight, as if smashed by a rainbow, instantly turned into fragmented fragments and spread out to the outside.

Amazed by this special effect, while Chen Yushan was stunned, the darkness surrounding him had been completely dispelled.

Like the rebirth of a cocoon, she who saw the light source again was already in a blue grassland.

Yes, this grassland is blue.

The sky was burning red.

Standing in this strange world, Chen Yushan raised her right hand with an incredible face, and touched her cheek.

Without any touch.

But she could really feel that the hand was on her face.

"Where's the helmet?"

Gone! ?

With her hands groping incredibly on her face, Chen Yushan's expression became even more surprised, her pupils were shaking with unbelievable colors, and she whispered to herself, "Am I asleep?"

Just as she hesitated to bite herself to confirm this, a familiar voice sounded in her ear.

"It's true to say that it's asleep. The principle of this set of equipment is exactly similar to the interference with dreams. Of course, this is still a little different from the state when we dream in general. It's like a kind of imagination that is actively induced by the stimulation of neural electrical signals ... forget it, it's troublesome to explain in popular language, you just understand that you are dreaming. "

The sound seemed to come from outside the world, but it was so close to where she was now.

Chen Yushan looked around and tried to stamp her feet.

No sound was expected, and even the soles of the feet on the ground did not have any consciousness.

This feeling is strange, as if your body does not belong to you, you just use "her" perspective to peer into this world. Everything here will not be changed because of her interaction, and she will not feel anything other than visual feedback from the world to her ...

She couldn't remember whether she could feel pain when she dreamed.

Most people do n’t pay attention to this kind of thing.

At least for now, only when she speaks, can she perceive from the touch between her lips and teeth that her own mouth and throat belong to her, not her hands and feet, which must be confirmed by her eyes. To their existence.

A little confused about this strange feeling, she opened her mouth and asked.

"Can you see what's going on with me?"

"Of course I can see that I can even see you lying in bed talking. When the data output by the host is acting on your brain through the neural modem, I will also receive a corresponding message here. This paragraph The information is processed by the graphics card, and similar graphics can be presented on the screen ... Of course, after all, the pictures I see are made up of pixels, which is definitely not as high-definition as you see now. "

"Indeed ... I was still thinking about it, and the details are too realistic."

Squatting down, looking at the thin blue grass that is as thin and strong as Mai Wang Mai Mang, Chen Yushan carefully observes its details.

If she concentrated her attention, she could even see the light blue texture on the grass.

This can no longer be described as realistic.

The word fidelity is simply an insult to it.

It's like a world here.

A living, brand new world!

...

"how are you feeling?"

Watching the sister who woke up at the end of the experience, Lu Zhou, who was standing next to him, asked for a cup of hot water.

"... Unbelievable experience, I can't describe the shock in my heart, anyway, it is very, very amazing. If you try it yourself, you should be able to understand the feeling in my heart."

Unexpectedly, he took off the helmet, and thanked Chen Yushan, thanking Lu Zhou, holding hot water in her hand, and remembering the strange world before, she felt reluctant for a while.

After a pause, she continued.

"I always wanted to travel around the world ... I feel like with this thing, let alone travel around the world, even different worlds can go."

Like Lu Zhou, after choosing a lifelong career, she also gave up many things. If she used to, she often carried her backpack and took a walk-and-go trip, but now it has almost become a wonderful ideal.

Don't say there is no time.

As the current CEO of Xingkong Technology, the commercial and even non-commercial secrets she came in contact with are not safe if she walks around.

This technique is still quite tempting to her.

Hearing this interesting idea, Lu Zhou said with a smile.

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Most virtual entities actually borrow the impressions from your own memory bank, through the fuzzy calculations of the brain ... The popular point is achieved by using brain supplements. The more complex the scene, the more difficult it is to build it. .If it is just a grassland, I only need to set a few limited parameters such as color, shape and so on. But if you want to restore the original appearance of Shanghai City in virtual reality ... we have to specifically target this Set up a virtual reality system, develop specialized modeling tools, and deepen the potential of this system. "

In short, if the entire device is set to the PC settings, the neuromodulation demodulator probably plays a role similar to the CPU, and the graphics card is directly responsible for the part of the brain that is responsible for generating the image.

The problem is exactly here. The way the human brain processes images and the computer's graphics card are based on two completely different principles.

The most prominent manifestation is that the general chips use logic operations, and the data processing is accurate and linear. The brain uses fuzzy operations, and the processing of information is imprecise and non-linear.

It is this characteristic that determines the programs compiled for the brain and the programs compiled for the graphics card. In terms of compilation ideas, they are two completely different or even very different ideas.

As a popular example, if he wants to build a scene through this set of virtual reality system, he doesn't need to paint every detail of the entire scene with a brush. He only needs to programmatically set up a grassland. There are many grasslands on the grassland. Grass, they are blue, how high they are, and even in other words, what kind of grass can complete the construction of the entire scene, and this scene can be easily "read" by most brains.

Just like the virtual entity that Chen Yushan saw in the immersed state, she can even see the lines on the grass.

After all, most people have seen what the grass looks like, even if they have not seen the grassland in reality, they have seen it more or less in film and television works or pictures on the Internet.

However, if there is not only grass on this grassland, but also a house, he must dig in and think about what the house looks like, whether it is a mansion or a broken house, a few windows and a few doors, etc. Using a general description like "a villa of a professor from Zhongshan International",

After all, everyone has seen such things as lawns, and Lu Zhou's own villa, except for his relatives, friends and neighbors, has only been seen by him.

The most interesting aspect of this technology is that, depending on the difference in information settings, even the same piece of data, after being processed by different brains, is presented in different people's "eyes". There may be slight differences.

However, this also created a problem.

That's how to use procedural language to "completely" describe something that no one has ever seen before, and minimize this accuracy error.

After all, the greatest significance of the Internet is the transmission and exchange of information.

If everyone sees what they want to see, rather than what it should have been—or what the developer wants it to be, then the meaning of the Internet is gone.

And this set of equipment has become a toy that can only be used for entertainment.

Chen Yushan: "That is to say, I can only go where I have been?"

Lu Zhou: "Not necessarily. I am afraid that the fragments stored in your memory are much larger than you think. Even things you haven't seen, you can show them through the complete settings ... just, This will bring a huge amount of work difficulty. Just like me and you describe a person's appearance, even if I say in more detail, without giving you a photo to know, even if you pass by, you will be difficult to pass him on the street. recognize."

Chen Yushan couldn't help writing a trace of regret.

"That's it ... that's a pity."

Lu Zhou nodded his head: "Well, this thing is just a prototype."

"Not just the problem I just said, including the simulation of a series of signals of hearing, smell, taste and touch, etc., have not been completed. You should also notice that when you enter the immersion mode, the sounds you hear are all It came from the outside world, and when I spoke, I also spoke directly through the vocal cords. "

Chen Yushan nodded.

"It's true ... if I could not see my hands, I would not even feel my presence in that virtual world."

"This is the difficulty that this technology hasn't solved yet," Lu Zhou nodded, and continued. "For the time being, I can only simulate the visual signal. The sound has to rely on the headset, and the touch is temporarily unsolvable. These, including the entire virtual reality system, and even the most critical neural signal modem architecture, many things are not fully processed, and these take time. "

However, even if there are many shortcomings, this device is quite awesome compared to the traditional "visual system" VR device.

At least, do n’t worry about “motion sickness” or worry about hurting your eyes.

And from the perspective of picture quality, it is far more efficient to present the image directly in the brain than to display it in front of the human's eyes through the screen, and then to the brain through the retina and the optic nerve.

The ideal situation is for users to forget their physical body in reality, without having to worry about what their hands are doing at the moment, as if immersed in a virtual world like a dream, just focus on what is happening "in front of" thing.

After all, as one VR concept creator said, no matter how advanced the imaging technology is, the ideal hardware for creating a new reality is not an external headset, but "a chip in the brain" or similar thing.

"Leaving aside these technical issues," Lu Zhou paused for a moment, then said with a smile, "how about, I didn't lie to you?"

Chen Yushan froze slightly, and then smiled and said, "Indeed ... I take back what I said, this is indeed a disruptive technology. I even have a hunch that it will change not only the concept of VR, but even change People's understanding of network interactions. "

Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I think so too."

The world will soon enter the 5g era ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ As the Internet speed increases by an order of magnitude, it is not just the download speed of sand sculpture netizens that has changed, but the operating ecology of the entire Internet will change.

People are more dependent on the Internet, and even WiFi or Bluetooth are connected to toilets and sinks. In such a big era, breakthroughs in virtual reality technology will certainly bring subversive changes to the entire Internet ecosystem.

Thinking of the same, Chen Yushan wrote a clear excitement in his eyes, and said with anticipation.

"Is there anything I need to do?"

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said, "Actually ... no."

Chen Yushan: "...?"

Looking at the expression on Xue's face, Lu Zhou was a little embarrassed.

Of course he couldn't say that he called her here just to "share the joy of success", so he coughed softly.

"After all, you also see that this technology is not perfect ... but if you are willing to help, you can help me think of a way to get a few experimenters over or bring the experimental models directly to the market. I also have no objection After all, I also need to complete the research with data from experimenters. "

Of course, this thing is not cheap after all. If Lu Zhou is not sure if he really wants to sell it, ordinary people can afford it.

In contrast, he still prefers the former.

If anyone is willing to be a mouse for him, his research will be much smoother.

Upon hearing Lu Zhou's demand, Chen Yushan immediately asked, "How much does the entire equipment cost?"

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said, "It's not good for mass production, but the words of this station ... it's about 100,000."

Chen Yushan took a breath.

Not because it's too expensive.

But because ...

"I dare say, if one hundred thousand ... this thing will definitely sell crazy."
