How is this going?

Confused, Jiang Chen picked up one of the cups of coffee and found the words "Invite Academician Jiang to drink iced coffee!" written on it.

He took several cups in a row and found that the coffee had similar words written on them.

Jiang Chen thought about it for a moment and realized that this matter had something to do with Guo Fan, so he called him and asked him to send someone to pick it up.

When Guo Fan and Wu Gan came over, they couldn't help but feel happy when they saw the "coffee stall" at Jiang Chen's door.

"These people are too honest. One or two of them said verbally that they didn't believe what I said, but in the end, they all sent it to you."

Jiang Chen sighed silently, and said to Guo Fan in a serious tone: "Director Guo, you love coffee so much, so I'll leave this place to you."

"Huh? I can't drink so much coffee!" Guo Fan didn't expect Jiang Chen to move so quickly. Before he could finish his words, Jiang Chen walked away with a cup of coffee.

Jiang Chen was still busy testing the drone's swarm technology, so he left first.

He believes that as a coffee expert, Guo Fan can think of ways to solve so many coffee problems.

Arriving at North No. 1 Warehouse, Jiang Chen began to study the three Predator drones that had been completed.

The Predator can perform various tasks independently, but if you want to maximize its effectiveness, it is best to work together in a group.

Controlling drones in a swarm manner is currently a method that Blue Star’s major scientific researchers are vigorously pursuing.

One of the biggest advantages of this method is that it can be truly decentralized. Just like a bee swarm, there is no chance that one of the drones will malfunction and cause the entire cluster to collapse.

If something goes wrong with one drone, the remaining drones can still complete their mission.

But currently, with this technology, small drones such as micro and small fixed-wing drones have been realized, but no one has successfully controlled large drones like the Predator, which have a body of more than eight meters long.

The reason is that the control system of large drones will be more sophisticated.

Therefore, facing this problem, Jiang Chen was a little overwhelmed.

If you want the Predators to fly in autonomous swarms, you will face three difficulties.

One is the need for decentralization to reduce the sensitivity of the system to damage. That is to say, no individual drone in the queue can become the central control.

When Benben was asked to form a team of several mechanical dogs, Jiang Chen directly let Benben play the role of central control for the sake of convenience. This basically meant that Benben was the lead dog.

The control of the entire team is actually judged by Benben, the lead dog.

This method is as simple as it gets, but if something goes wrong with Benben, the entire mechanical dog team will no longer be able to complete the mission.

At that time, Jiang Chen considered using this technique to practice first, and if it didn't work, he could upgrade it later.

The results did not wait long, and now the drone needed him to improve this technology.

The second point is to achieve autonomy. The drones in the queue need to communicate with each other about location sharing, path planning, perception and avoidance and other information.

In this case, the person responsible for control also needs to be able to intervene at any time.

The third point is autonomy. In other words, when a drone temporarily leaves the team, it can quickly change the structure of the team to ensure that the new formation can complete the mission objectives.

In this case, it is simply impossible to achieve without the precise intervention of strong artificial intelligence.

"MOSS, try to test control three Predators. During the test, pay attention to testing various unexpected situations to see how the Predators react."

After receiving the order, MOSS quickly formed a formation of three drones in the warehouse and controlled them to slowly glide outside the warehouse.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen saw them flying into the sky one after another outside the warehouse.

After the drone flew out, Jiang Chen certainly wouldn't stand at the door of the warehouse and watch. Through the real-time monitoring screen, he can check the current situation of the three Predators and the images transmitted back.

Through Marauder No. 2, Jiang Chen saw that Guo Fan was letting the crew prepare a table of coffee. Guo Fan was holding the coffee and was talking to Gong Geer and Da Liu.

Jiang Chen enlarged the ultra-clear image returned by the drone and found that Gongger was holding a script in his hand at this time, and the content of the script could be clearly seen on the image.

It was written about the scene where Teacher Ning Li, whom Jiang Chen was very familiar with, was trapped in the computer room.

"Do you want to be so cruel?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.

This scene in his last life tortured him to death.

He originally thought that there might be differences in the scripts in parallel worlds, but so far, he understands that Gong Geer and Da Liu in each world are BE lovers.

The drone continued to move forward, and Jiang Chen saw the current situation of the entire base while sitting on the chair.

The base is now roughly divided into two levels.

The first level is mainly on the outside of the base, and is now the filming location for the wandering crew.

The second floor is where scientific research institutes and other places gather. A high wall has been erected between the two floors.

Jiang Chen's daily workspace is now on the first floor, and everything related to research has been moved to the North No. 1 warehouse.

The entire second floor of the base was quiet, with no one on the road, but the scene on the first floor was completely opposite.

On the first floor of the base, except for the people drinking coffee, the rest of the people were basically carrying various equipment and walking back and forth, apparently preparing the scenery.

In less than an hour, the three drones had completed their patrol, and under the instructions of MOSS, they returned to the warehouse again.

[This test has successfully connected the systems of 3 Predators. 】

[During this test, three Predators, under the control of MOSS, were able to quickly and dynamically adjust their topology to adapt to sudden mission changes, loss of signal nodes, regional interference and other issues. 】

Jiang Chen checked the data provided by MOSS with great satisfaction.

If MOSS hadn't given out the data, Jiang Chen might not even have noticed that the predator had just gone through so many tests.

Sure enough, the most powerful brain of the Predator can only be an artificial intelligence of the level of MOSS. If it is controlled by someone else, it will be difficult for the Predator to make rapid changes just when a mission suddenly changes.

Jiang Chen is still satisfied with the current results.

After all, he has been able to control three large Predators. Jiang Chen will be more confident in controlling more Predators in the future.

[Remind the administrator that the auction you previously scheduled is about to start. Do you need to prepare? 】

After being reminded by MOSS, Jiang Chen realized that the auction was about to begin, but he was not in a hurry.

"MOSS, go and participate in the auction."

MOSS appeared as a young man in Tang suit, pointed at himself, and said——

[Administrator, are you sure you want me to attend alone? 】
