Chapter 221, The Powerful Artificial Eye
"Jiajia, what color is this?"
In the Bioelectronics Laboratory, Xu Yunpeng, Zhou and others surrounded Xiao Jia and were conducting a series of tests.
This was also agreed with Song Hongyu in advance, and Xiao Jia needed to cooperate with him to do some related tests.
"This is my favorite pink!"
Jiajia replied immediately.
"Allison is awesome!"
Zhou Tong praised with a smile, and his colleagues ticked the corresponding colors. It can be seen that more than a dozen colors have been tested, and they can be accurately stated.
At first, Jiajia couldn't distinguish these colors, but she was very smart, just taught it once, she quickly memorized it, and then came back to test.
"Jiajia, now we're going to take a vision test, look at the letter M, wait for me to point to a letter, and tell me its direction, okay?"
The color test is completed, and the next test is started.
“Hmm~”
Xiao Jia nodded quickly, she is very happy now, because she can see the outside world, she can go out and play freely like other children, and her mother is also very happy.
At this moment, Song Hongyu stood aside with a smile on his face.
Although it is not a real eye, it can only see, that is enough, nothing more.
"Jiajia, which way is this letter facing?"
Zhou Tong was doing the test here, and Liu Yuan and Li Chun were watching silently.
"Perhaps this is the real meaning of technological progress, giving people a new lease of life!"
Liu Yuan thought silently.
From Xu Yunpeng, I know that the little girl named Xiao Jia is congenitally blind, and the current medical technology cannot cure it. Going to the outside world, it makes everyone feel full of meaning.
"Up~"
"what about this?"
"Left~"
"what about this?"
"down~"
The eyesight test is in progress. As the distance gets farther and farther, Xiao Jia can still see clearly. The distance is far beyond the range that the naked eye can see clearly, but Xiao Jia does not have the slightest difficulty.
"It seems that it is the same as what we expected. Whether the artificial eye can see clearly, how far it can see, and how clear it can be, is all related to the camera."
"The better the camera installed, the clearer it will naturally see, and at the same time it will be able to see farther, clearer, farther, and more powerful than our naked eyes."
Xu Yunpeng chatted with Liu Yuan while watching.
"How did you come up with the idea of making this artificial eye?"
Liu Yuan thought about it and asked.
"This artificial eye is actually just a derivative of our research on virtual technology."
"Because we have now mastered the ability to convert information into electrical waves that the human brain can read, we conducted a series of tests and made this artificial eye."
"Actually, this thing is very simple. A camera, plus a bioelectric wave converter, can directly convert the things captured by the camera into brain waves and input them into the brain, which is equivalent to having extra eyes."
"I just didn't expect that such a small invention is a great gospel for those who have lost their light. From then on, they can restore the light, see the sun again, and even be stronger than the naked eye."
Xu Yunpeng also explained it to Liu Yuan in detail.
At this time, Zhou Tong also came over and said: "The test results have basically come out, and the color, shape, distance and many other static aspects of the object can be transmitted 100% without any problems, and the artificial eye's Vision has a lot to do with the pixels of the camera, and the more powerful the camera, the clearer and farther it can see."
"In addition, in terms of dynamic visual capture, it is more powerful than our naked eyes, but when the speed reaches a certain level, our naked eyes cannot capture it at all, but through artificial eyes, it can be clearly captured. "
"It can be said that this artificial eye is many times more powerful than our human eye, and with the advancement of camera technology, it can become even more powerful."
"In addition, a night vision device can be added to the artificial eye, so it can also have night vision functions."
"If you use augmented reality and assisted reality technology, you can even increase the ability to calculate altitude, speed, wind speed, humidity, angle, slope, etc., so that the artificial eye has a powerful ability that completely surpasses the naked eye."
Zhou Tong is getting more excited the more he talks.
Originally, it was just something that was accidentally made during the research process. At first, it was just to test the degree and situation of bioelectric wave conversion. A camera was connected to it, so as to test to see how many things can be converted. .
I didn’t expect that this artificial eye is actually very promising. If we specialize in related technical research, the artificial eye produced by this is even many times stronger than the naked eye, with many incredible powerful functions and abilities.
"This is indeed a technological invention that has always benefited mankind."
"There are 45 million blind people in the world, and nearly 200 million people with various strength obstacles. This artificial eye is a great invention that benefits 200 million people around the world."
Li Chun gave Zhou Tong a thumbs up. He just checked the information. If he didn't check it, he didn't know it. When he checked it, he was shocked. There are 45 million blind people in the world, and nearly 200 million people have visual impairments.
"This is indeed a great invention!"
Liu Yuan also solemnly nodded in agreement.
"This artificial eye can be manufactured, and this virtual technology should be almost studied, right?"
Liu Yuan thought about it and asked again.
The two major problems of virtual technology, the first problem is to read the brain wave information, so that the brain wave information can be directly received, without the need to manipulate it with hands and feet.
For example, when you look at the page you want to renovate on your phone, your brain issues messages and commands, and your hands execute them.
If you study this technology thoroughly, you can send information and instructions directly to your brain, read it directly on your mobile phone, and automatically renovate the page without needing to flip it with your fingers.
Similarly, when playing games, if you master this technology, you can completely get rid of your hands, directly use your mind to control the game operations, and perform many high-level operations that were simply done with your hands before.
Because the thinking speed of the human brain is very fast, but sometimes the human hand is basically the reaction speed of the brain, so this is also the reason why many people are very bad when playing games, because the hand speed cannot keep up, and they clearly know how to do it. , but it just can't keep up, the operation can't come.
The second problem is to convert information into brain waves for the brain to read directly, without the need to obtain information through sensory organs such as eyes, nose, ears, and skin.
Just like the artificial eye in front of you, it can directly convert the pictures captured by the camera into brain wave information and send it to the brain, so that even if the eyes are blind, you can still see everything in the outside world clearly.
This is actually the use of technology to convert information into brain waves for the brain to read directly.
If these two difficulties are overcome, virtual technology can be realized.
At that time, mobile phones and computers can be directly replaced by virtual machines, and virtual machines no longer need a display screen or something, because there is no need at all, and information can be directly converted into brain waves and input to the brain.
also does not need a keyboard, touch, etc., because all instructions can also be directly converted into electronic information through brain waves to directly issue related instructions to the virtual machine.
Once can be realized, people's life and office will undergo earth-shaking changes in the future, and the virtual world will become the second world, a place where people can't live and work without it.
Of course, both life and work will become easier.
In terms of work, because many people face the computer monitor for a long time, myopia will become more and more serious, and the eyes will become more and more tired. Many jobs that require typing, such as the author of the starting point, long-term coding, will have arthritis in the fingers. , the waist will protrude the lumbar disc and the like.
It can be said that these are occupational diseases caused by long-term work, but if there is virtual technology, it is completely different, there is no need to face the monitor at all, because all the information can be directly entered into your head.
also does not need to type by hand, because all the information and instructions in the brain can be directly entered into the computer, getting rid of the dependence on the monitor, keyboard and mouse.
In this way, it is completely possible to lie down to work, or walk to work, and there is no need to be in front of the computer all the time as before, to work anytime and anywhere, and to connect to the virtual world anytime, anywhere. Travel freely in the virtual world.
"Well, it's almost done."
"Now is the time to perfect the technology."
Xu Yunpeng nodded solemnly after hearing this.
"Don't worry, take your time, try to improve the technology as much as possible."
"In addition to creating a new virtual world, we also need time."
Liu Yuan nodded slightly, thought for a while and said, "Maybe we need to recruit some computer-related engineers, artists, and virtual world architects on a large scale to create a brand new virtual world."
Think about it carefully, this year is really busy, and things related to the manufacture of anti-gravity aircraft are busy enough. If virtual technology is introduced, it will definitely be too busy.
It may be more appropriate to put it next year. You can improve the virtual technology first and make it more perfect. At the same time, you can also prepare the framework of the virtual world and some basic settings in advance, so that you can benefit from it. Maximize and hold the keys and benefits of the virtual world firmly in your own hands.
