Taking advantage of the applause, Wu Hao picked up a bottle of water and drank it. To be honest, although the entire Tianshu Activity Center has fresh water-cooled air conditioning, it still feels very hot with so many people present, Wu Hao speaking on stage again, and so many spotlights shining on him.
After a lecture, my mouth was already dry. So he had to take the opportunity to add some water and moisten his throat. Otherwise, he is afraid that he will suffer from heat stroke due to high temperature and lack of water, or even faint on the stage, which would be great fun.
Returning to the center of the round platform, Wu Hao gathered his thoughts for a while, and then smiled and preached to everyone in the audience.
"The artificial vision system in the experiment you just saw is just a prototype experimental device. Our real goal is to make it into an intelligent electronic prosthetic eye the size of our human eyeballs.
In this way, it can be completely implanted into the eyes of blind patients and work instead of our eyes. Let our blind patients regain their sight through this smart electronic prosthetic eye. It can also ensure the integrity of the facial features of blind patients like us, and re-establish the dignity that a normal person should have, so that they will no longer face discrimination, ridicule or even unnecessary pity. "
Speaking of this, Wu Hao smiled and pretended to be mysterious: "Moreover, our smart electronic prosthetic eyes will also be able to have some functions that our real eyes cannot have, allowing our wearers to have more extraordinary information acquisition." ability.
First of all, because it is a smart electronic prosthetic eye, we can give the functions of our smart AR and even VR glasses to the smart electronic prosthetic eye at the same time.
In this way, our intelligent electronic prosthetic eyes can have a full-view immersive VR virtual world visual experience.
You can also have a virtual reality visual experience that integrates the display and virtual world brought by smart AR glasses.
In other words, our smart electronic prosthetic eye can not only restore sight to the blind, but also allow them to experience VR and AR technology that they have never experienced before, and experience the convenience and happiness brought by new technology. "
Bang bang bang bang...
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause, and many people even stood up directly.
On the Internet, this aroused praise and applause from netizens.
"This is really good. If this technology can really be realized, it will potentially help more than 30 million blind patients in our country see the light again."
"No, not all of the more than 30 million people are suitable for wearing this smart electronic prosthetic eye. There are many people who only need cornea and iris transplantation to regain their sight. If you want to wear this smart electronic prosthetic eye, you must Originally, the entire eyeball of the blind patient had to be dug out before it could be installed.”
"I'll dig them all out. This is too scary."
"What's so scary? Isn't that how the original prosthetic eyeballs were worn?"
"It's really great to be able to increase AR and VR viewing angles. I am highly myopic. If this technology matures, I wonder if I can also switch to this kind of smart electronic prosthetic eyes."
"Are you crazy? No matter how bad your eyes are, they are all grown on your own flesh. Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable and awkward if you have these cold electronic eyes?"
"Upstairs, you don't understand the pain of those of us with high myopia. The experience of getting up in the morning and touching glasses everywhere is really painful. If this smart electronic eye prosthetic technology is really mature, I will also be willing to change a pair. .”
"+1, this is my third pair of glasses this year. Last week when I was playing basketball, my opponent grabbed them off, and then my teammate next to me stepped on them. I was blind and couldn't see clearly. Finally, I was with my roommate. With the help of others, I spent more than a thousand to get a new pair."
"I'll go, you are myopic, do you dare to exercise strenuously? You won't be afraid of retinal detachment and you will go blind directly."
"I like playing ball. Besides, I'm not that unlucky. Just be careful."
"How to pay attention on the court, brother, I advise you to be a rat. My eye was hit by a basketball on the court, and the retina detached. Then I went for emergency surgery. Although I barely recovered my vision, my field of vision was narrow. Normal eyes can see The picture I saw was an ultra-wide giant screen, while mine was the original big-head TV square screen. So if this kind of intelligent electronic prosthetic eye comes out, I will definitely replace it with one for myself."
"I am a patient with floaters, the kind that is so densely packed inside my eyes when I open my eyes. I have consulted many hospitals, but basically there is no cure. If possible, I would also like to change a pair of eyes."
"I can't understand it, but I am very interested in this kind of smart electronic prosthetic eye, so that I can catch fish secretly even during class and meetings."
"666, according to what you said, wouldn't the exam be so exciting?"
"You are overthinking. There is no need for ordinary exams. There will definitely be relevant measures and regulations for major exams. For example, it is not allowed to wear smart electronic prosthetic eyes, or the Internet is blocked, etc."
"It's impossible. It's not allowed to be used. How can these blind patients take exams? It's okay even if the network is blocked, as long as they can store things."
"Don't be as stupid as others think. After this smart electronic prosthetic eye is launched, the relevant systems and laws will also keep up. So, it's best to study hard and study hard."
"I think it's good. With this pair of smart electronic prosthetic eyes, I don't have to worry about hurting my eyes when I play games and watch movies, so I can travel in the game world."
"The eyes are not hurt, but the brain is hurt. It relies on electromagnetism and electrodes to transmit image information to the brain. If used for a long time, it will definitely cause damage to the brain."
"Didn't Wu Hao say that the experiment had no impact on the brain?"
"Please, watch the press conference carefully. What Wu Hao said was that during the test, there was no significant change in the animal's brain. There has not been any human brain test, so it's hard to say much."
"I agree, I'm taking a wait-and-see attitude. This thing is good and can bring light to the blind, but you can't deliberately exaggerate its function and treat it rationally."
"Don't think about it. It will probably take several years before this smart electronic prosthetic eye is put on the market. After all, it's hard to say whether this thing will have any impact on the human brain. So it must go through a long period of clinical trials. In addition, this thing also needs to be reviewed by the health and medical device regulatory authorities. After this process, even if it is accelerated, it will not be launched in a few years.
Then there's the price. You must know that the research and development of such high-tech products, and also medical products, is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, so the cost and price are definitely not low. As a most conservative estimate, one smart electronic prosthetic eye costs RMB 100,000, and a pair of them costs RMB 200,000. Are you willing to pay this amount? "
"Is two hundred thousand a lot? As long as it can restore the light, I am willing to pay no matter how much money it takes."
"Not everyone is as wealthy as you. This two hundred thousand is a huge sum of money for many people. These are blind patients who do not have much labor force. It is very difficult for them to pay so much money. It’s hard to afford.”
"Two hundred thousand dollars is such a rich thing. If it can help one person see things again and return to normal, even the poorest family, I believe they will be willing to pay this money."
