"What kind of foresight is that? I just read too much science fiction." Bao Qizheng smiled awkwardly.
The combination of a game cabin and a remotely controlled humanoid release robot is not his original creation.
It’s already a formula written in science fiction.
Even in the future virtual universe. The metaverse and the like are often mentioned in science fiction.
"You can't say that. Thinking about it and actually implementing it are different." Fan Xiaoming said.
"Science fiction is open to the public. If you can think of it immediately and implement it, that is your foresight." Su Zhe said seriously, "For example, the current beam channel is actually based on the idea of a space elevator. Of course Yes, many of the wild and unbridled ideas in science fiction are inspiring, so you can take a look when you have time."
The basic idea of the space elevator is that the cables continuously increase energy and upward force to the elevator.
The beam channel is the same as the current flying saucer.
Existing flying saucers cannot fly for a long time due to the problem of carrying energy.
Energy can only be provided continuously through the beam channel.
It is essentially the same as a space elevator.
However, once the sixth-generation nuclear power plant is successfully miniaturized, it will be possible to build a flying saucer that can fly directly out of the earth.
At present, this kind of flying saucer using nuclear energy is under research. The only disadvantage is the miniaturization of the sixth-generation nuclear power plant.
Having said that, even if this kind of nuclear-powered flying saucer is successfully developed, it cannot replace the flying saucers that fly through beam channels today.
After all, the latter has too many advantages that are incomparable to the former.
"Yes! Yes! Many of my ideas came from reading science fiction." Zuo Dajun nodded quickly, "But now I feel that Iron Man's armor is a bit useless. We can make it now. I'm talking about the third It's a substitute battle armor, but if you accelerate it, it's very likely that the people inside will be sent away."
To be honest, he was aiming to build the Iron Man suit from the beginning.
But after building an armored space suit, he had a profound understanding.
The thrust of the main engine of the armored space suit must be limited, otherwise the people in the space suit can be sent away directly.
As for the first-generation armored space suit, its gravitational acceleration can reach 100 G in three seconds. Who can withstand such a powerful acceleration?
The last resort is to limit the thrust output of the main engine.
The thrust of the main engine is limited, and the armor loses its main advantage, mobility.
Just get a hammer and it will be a perfect target when it flies in the air.
To be honest, even if the thrust of the armor is not limited, a person can withstand an acceleration of 100G, but it is still scum in front of the SS-defense system that integrates ground and air.
To sum it up, he no longer has the interest in making Iron Man armor.
Similarly, fighting mechas also have the same problem.
In his opinion, when the strength is equal, battle armor and mecha are useless.
With this idea in mind, he focused on space suits and engineering mechas. As for the research on combat mechas, there was no need for war mechas.
"You're right! Iron Man's armor is really useless. It's enough to see it in the movie, but it's irrational to see it in reality." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.
A science fiction movie! There is no need to be so particular about it, it just makes sense.
But reality is not a science fiction movie.
The fragile body of a human being cannot control equipment with extremely high acceleration.
Engaged equipment will only limit the performance of the equipment.
Such as armored space suits, mechas, fighter planes, flying saucers, etc.
Take the flying saucer as an example. When the manned Bluebird spacecraft is carrying people, its normal acceleration will not exceed 1.2 G, and under special circumstances it will not exceed two G.
The reason for this is to consider the safety of the passengers.
As for the cargo-carrying White Goose and Black Eagle flying saucers, their normal acceleration is one hundred G, and in a hurry it can reach one hundred and fifty G.
G.
The acceleration is so different, how can we compare it?
"That's true." Su Zhe looked at Zuo Dajun and said, "You are right about the positioning of mechas. There are not many use cases for combat mechas, but there are many civilian uses like engineering mechas."
Bao Qi nodded with a smile and said: "Whether it is combat or application, we have not been optimistic about mechas from the beginning. Remote control of robots is the real way."
Their School of Computer Science made full demonstrations when they first established the project.
The mecha plan was directly rejected and the remote control robot plan was chosen.
"You..." Zuo Dajun looked at Bao Qizheng and was very unconvinced.
Bao Qizheng smiled awkwardly and said: "The solution of remote control of robots is good, but there are two difficulties that limit this solution. One is the interaction of information between the game cabin and people, which makes it impossible to precisely control humanoid bionics. For robots, the second is the delay in information transmission. It’s fine at short distances, but not at long distances.”
People remotely control the humanoid bionic robot through the game cabin.
Among them, people use the gloves worn on their hands to control through information feedback from what they see and hear.
Using this method, it is difficult to achieve precise control of humanoid bionic robots.
Then there is the information transmission between the game cabin and the humanoid bionic robot.
The distance between the two should not be too far.
These two points restrict the use of remote control bionic robots.
If any one of these two problems is solved, its scope of application will be further expanded.
"Classmate Bao! Are you talking about brain-computer integration technology and instantaneous information transmission technology?" Fan Xiaoming asked with a smile.
When Bao Qi mentioned this issue, he guessed what Bao Qi was thinking.
To be honest, the current game cabin is not perfect.
The feedback of information still relies on the eyes and ears, and the control of the output of information relies on the hands.
In the final analysis, there is no essential difference between the game cabin and the computer.
The most ideal thing is brain-computer integration technology, so that the feedback and control information of humanoid bionic robots can directly interact with the human brain.
At this time, humans will be able to control the humanoid bionic robot in a precise manner, and the humanoid bionic robot will be able to do what humans can do.
Then there is the instant information transmission technology.
Relatively speaking, this technology is more important than brain-computer integration technology, and its importance is also epoch-making.
If the former exists, at most it will be a humanoid bionic robot that is as indistinguishable as a human being.
With the latter, humans will be able to explore deep space without limit.
Bao Qizheng nodded quickly and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, we have formed multiple scientific research teams to study these two technologies. In addition, other universities, research institutes and other related units also have the same projects. But so far, In other words, the brain-computer integration technology has made a little progress, but the instantaneous information transmission technology has no clue at all.”
Now, their computer school is not short of money, so they are naturally willing to spend money on research on these two technologies.
In order to study brain-computer integration technology, two independent scientific research teams were established with other schools in the school.
It has also established five scientific research teams with other domestic universities, research institutes and other related scientific research units.
The same is true for instant information transmission technology.
The reason why I mentioned it again in front of Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming this time was to make Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming take it seriously.
In his opinion, others may not be able to handle these two technologies, but Jiutian Research Center can.
When Bao Qi was speaking to the end, he glanced at Zuo Dajun provocatively.
Zuo Dajun did not shy away from Bao Qizheng's provocation and said with a smile: "Are you thinking that after these two technologies come out, remote-controlled humanoid bionic robots can replace mechas? To be honest, I also want these two technologies to appear. Then we can explore the entire universe as long as we stay on Earth. However, these two technologies, brain-computer integration technology, are possible, but instantaneous information transmission technology is too difficult and difficult. It is basically impossible now."
According to his understanding, there are many scientific research teams around the world studying brain-computer integration technology.
In the past, foreign research on brain-computer integration technology exceeded domestic research.
But now, foreign countries have been far behind the domestic ones, and there is no comparability with the domestic ones.
There are two routes to brain-computer integration technology.
One is contact type.
Most of the scientific research teams at home and abroad studying brain-computer integration technology are studying contact brain-computer integration technology.
That is to put the relevant device into the skull.
The other is contactless.
Compared with the contact type, this type is more convenient to wear, but the research progress is not great.
As for instantaneous information transmission technology, there are many scientific research teams studying it, but there is almost no progress.
You must know that there is an upper limit to the speed at which radio waves and light can transmit information, which is the speed of light.
The basic meaning of instantaneous information transmission technology is the transmission of information faster than the speed of light.
According to the existing basic physics theory, the speed of light is the fastest in the universe, and nothing can exceed the speed of light.
To put it bluntly, under the current basic theory, instantaneous information transmission technology is impossible to achieve.
There is no such possibility.
Of course, this is just current physical theory.
Science and technology are developing, and so are the basic theories of everything.
Everyone should look at everything from a development perspective.
Just like the current physical theory, it is difficult to explain the phenomenon of quantum entanglement, and there are many, many phenomena that cannot be well explained.
This shows that the existing physical theory is imperfect.
At present, when it comes to researching instant information transmission technology, many people place their hopes on the phenomenon of quantum entanglement.
We want to use the quantum entanglement phenomenon as a breakthrough to develop instantaneous information transmission technology.
Bao Qizheng looked at Bao Qizheng with a smile and said: "That's what you think. As long as you continue to invest, these two technologies will be realized sooner or later. I admit that it is difficult to realize instantaneous information transmission technology, and it may be impossible to realize it." , but we still have to do research, and we can always accidentally discover something else during the research process."
"Instantaneous information transmission technology is too difficult, but we can keep trying." Fan Xiaoming said seriously, "There are still many unsolved mysteries in high-energy physics, such as quantum entanglement, which require us to continue to study." Maybe we can develop instant information transmission technology.”
"Quantum entanglement is indeed a breakthrough in information transmission technology." Su Zhe said with a smile, "However, the relevant theories are not yet perfect and require further experimental verification. What is certain now is that even if information transmission technology can be realized, it will It will take a long time to wait, but it will be easier to achieve with brain-computer technology.”
Regarding brain-computer integration technology, he is more willing to study non-contact brain-computer integration technology.
For now, once brain-computer integration technology is realized, it will be used on a large scale.
However, if it is a contact-type brain-computer integration technology, a small brain surgery is required to put a chip into the skull.
To be honest, many people are resistant to this.
Non-contact brain-computer integration technology is different.
Don't have a chip implanted in your head.
You can use the relevant equipment just by bringing it with you.
In his opinion, with the current technology, whether it is contact or non-contact, the difficulty of the two is not much different.
Of course, this is for him, not others.
The development of both requires understanding the working mechanism of the human brain.
To put it simply, it is to find the input and output points of brain information.
Once these are found, brain-computer integration technology can be realized.
"No rush! No rush! Anyway, this method can be used right now." Bao Qizheng said with a smile, "Well, what we need for brain-computer integration technology is non-contact, which is safer and more convenient."
Use it on a large scale like this
, the contact type is too unsafe and too troublesome.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "We had no intention of developing contact-type brain-computer integration technology."
"Exactly!" Zuo Dajun said with a smile, "Whether it is a space suit or a mecha, it also requires non-contact brain integration technology."
"Yeah! Things like virtual universes and virtual games are all needed." Bao Qizheng said seriously.
Relatively speaking, combining brains with technology is also very important.
This represents a direct connection between human consciousness and machines.
Once implemented, a lot will change.
At that time, whether it was an information output device or an output device, there was basically no need for it.
Things like computer keyboards and monitors are no longer needed.
"You are still saying that you are not in a hurry, but I see that you are very anxious." Fan Xiaoming said, "I can understand that you are in a hurry. The existing game cabins are being manufactured in large quantities. Once the brain-computer integration technology is successfully developed, then the current game cabins will They will all be eliminated, but there is no way around it. We can’t wait for brain-computer technology to be combined! This is unrealistic.”
He also knows that brain-computer integration technology is important.
It is clear what Zuo Dajun and Bao Qizheng are thinking.
However, the development of brain-computer integration technology takes time, and no one can say with certainty when it will be successfully developed.
Hearing what Fan Xiaoming said, Zuo Dajun and Bao Qizheng smiled awkwardly.
"Just do your research normally. I know that your scientific research team of ten thousand people has already started. Besides, relevant domestic research institutions are all interoperable. I believe that brain-computer integration technology will be developed soon." Bao Qi Zheng said with a smile.
"Classmate Bao! Do you believe what you said?" Zuo Dajun smiled half-heartedly, "Yeah! I still believe that the school's scientific research team communicates with other domestic universities, research institutes and other related research institutions. At present, We can’t do that yet.”
You must know that domestic universities, research institutes and other related research institutions have cooperative relationships, but they are more competitive.
They are more or less on guard against each other.
