"This time our competition area can invite Professor Xu to serve as a defense judge. It seems that it is Lao Qin's favor. Now who doesn't know that Professor Xu will complete the outstanding youth project alone in half a year."
At the defense venue of the Jingzhou University Higher Education Society Cup competition area, several professors on the judging panel chatted after greeting each other.
"What kind of face can I have? The main reason is that Xiao Xu pays more attention to the new talents in our mathematics community."
Qin Xiangxin waved his hands and said humbly, but the joyful smile on his face revealed his true thoughts.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone else take over.
"The number of teams qualified to defend this time is also yours from Beijing University, which is really enviable."
Although Xu Yun's current professional title is basically the same as theirs, as a junior, he still behaves relatively modestly on such occasions.
Basically, he mainly listens to other people's conversations and doesn't have much time to speak.
As for the project, it is indeed no secret now.
First of all, the official website of the Natural Science Foundation has successively announced the funding for the identified outstanding youth projects.
Many netizens were quite disappointed when they saw that he actually researched military exoskeleton armor.
From the comment area of Qiu Bin's video, it can be seen that everyone has very high expectations, hoping that he can make some big moves to quickly improve the domestic military strength.
Many people even came off the field to express their expectations.
The result information was announced, and the research direction Xu Yun chose for the Outstanding Youth Project turned out to be exoskeletons.
Military exoskeleton armor is not a new term. In addition to military use, many domestic companies are researching it.
They are basically unpowered auxiliary mechanical exoskeletons. Their effect is to reduce the burden on soldiers when carrying things. In addition, it is difficult to maintain a fast speed when moving. It is not possible to apply them to logistics in combat situations. How effective it can be.
It is quite different from the more technological exoskeleton that everyone imagines.
There wasn't much interest left.
Therefore, in their opinion, Xu Yun's research on exoskeleton armor would at best make soldiers more effortless.
Its value is not even as good as the plastic fluorocarbon polymer material.
Compared with the information that the outside public has, some experts and professors have heard that Xu Yun will conduct this project alone and guarantees that the results will be accepted within six months.
It was impossible for them to do this, so they became curious.
When I get the chance, I inevitably wonder what the situation is like.
Xu Yun didn't care much about what netizens said. He knew in his heart that the disappointment was only temporary.
When the door frame robot armor that is more than two meters high appears on the Internet, everyone will only be shocked and surprised.
But while he was waiting for the defense team to enter, the voice of a professor wearing a pair of reading glasses came to his ears.
The other party asked a question.
"Professor Xu."
"Is your project going smoothly so far?"
Seeing that he was involved in this topic again, Xu Yun did not show any anger.
With a smile on his face, he answered truthfully: "Thank you Professor Zhao for your concern. My project is already halfway through and the finished product is about to be produced." The whole process was calm and relaxed.
The tone gives others the impression that this project is not considered a problem at all.
It can be solved easily.
It's just that when other people hear these words, the first thought that flashes through their minds is disbelief.
Thinking about it, it has only been more than two months since the list of outstanding talents was announced. Under normal circumstances, even key projects are only in their infancy.
What's more, Xu Yun is still alone.
As a result, he now says that the project is already halfway through.
According to this, wouldn't it mean that we have to wait another two months for the project to be officially accepted for results?
It's just astonishing.
"so fast?"
Professor Zhao looked suspicious. He shouted out loud first, and then took over the previous question and asked again.
"Is Professor Xu's research direction also unpowered exoskeleton armor?"
Unpowered exoskeleton armor is the most technologically mature, and it is indeed possible to optimize it based on Xu Yun's talent and level. This is the only reasonable speculation he can think of.
Hearing this, the smile on Xu Yun's lips became even brighter.
"This involves the confidentiality of the project. If Professor Zhao wants to know, he may have to sign a confidentiality agreement first."
"..."
"I'm the one who got excited."
Upon hearing Xu Yun's answer, Professor Zhao was startled, and then embarrassment appeared on his face.
Seeing that the topic was gradually getting sidetracked, Qin Xiangxin, who was standing next to him, quickly tried to smooth things over.
"alright."
"Today our task is to answer the judges and select the best team to send to the imperial capital for the national award."
“We’ll talk about irrelevant things later.”
When Qin Xiangxin spoke, everyone naturally said nothing more and straightened their identities to wait for the defense team to enter.
In the morning, as the defense officially began, many teams from different universities in the competition area entered the venue one after another.
Maybe they didn't expect to see Xu Yun here, so they were a little nervous at first.
It's like fans are afraid of meeting their idols offline and don't even dare to raise their eyes to stare at them.
Xu Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this situation. He thought that he was not that scary.
Obviously quite amiable.
In the end, he spoke out a few words of comfort before the defense could proceed normally.
Since the defense of this competition area was held at Kyongshu University, in order to take care of other schools' participating teams in the Higher Education Society Cup, the defense order of the Kyungshu University team was placed at the back.
It was almost noon that people began to enter the venue for defense.
"Next is the team from the Department of Mathematics of Jingzhou University. The team leader is a girl named Han Xiaoya."
When thinking about the next team to defend, Xu Yun quickly added: "She is my cousin, so I will not participate in the decision-making after the defense." He did not hide his relationship with Han Xiaoya.
In fact, when he just got the defense list, he discovered that Han Xiaoya's team had qualified.
So I looked specifically for ideas for solving the problem.
To be honest, it is really good for the three freshmen to achieve this level when choosing the first question.
At least he was a little surprised.
But there is still a short way to go to win the highest award and take home the trophy.
"I didn't expect Professor Xu's cousin to be so good. I think her information can recommend Qinghua."
"I really envy Lao Qin more and more. There are such outstanding students in the college every year."
Several professors were quite surprised when they heard Xu Yun's words. They obviously did not expect that Xu Yun's brothers and sisters were equally outstanding.
The happiest person must be Qin Xiangxin. The more others admire him, the happier he feels.
As the saying goes, don't avoid relatives when promoting talents. Everyone was surprised but they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
After all, Xu Yun did not participate in the review of defense qualifications. He only attended the defense review today.
But having said that, in order to avoid causing trouble to Han Xiaoya, Xu Yun remained silent after the defense began.
Han Xiaoya was not very surprised that Xu Yun appeared here. She was only stunned for a moment and then quickly returned to normal.
On the contrary, because she was relatively familiar with Xu Yun, she did not feel any nervousness or panic during the whole defense process.
Overall, the performance is pretty good.
It wasn't until she walked out of the venue that she breathed a sigh of relief and talked about the situation with her two teammates.
"How are you, Xiaoya? Are you sure you will win the national award?" Shen Meng, who quickly gathered around, asked Han Xiaoya.
Although the teammate from the Institute of Design next to her didn't speak at this time, her hot eyes still revealed her inner expectations.
She originally formed a team with Han Xiaoya and Chen Meng, and felt that she would have no regrets if she could win the provincial award.
Unexpectedly, I was qualified to defend in the competition area. Since I was lucky enough to reach this point, I must compete for the national award. Otherwise, today's defense would be in vain.
Faced with the urgent expressions of the two women, Han Xiaoya did not answer immediately, but instead asked a mysterious question.
"Guess who I just saw at the venue?"
"Who?"
The two women work very well together.
"I actually saw my cousin, he is the judge for today's on-site defense."
When Han Xiaoya met the two women's eyes, she stopped showing off and immediately told what she saw.
And these words immediately made Shen Meng and the two happy.
"Professor Xu actually came to be the defense judge. Doesn't that mean our national award is now secure?"
"But my cousin doesn't seem to be involved in the decision-making." Han Xiaoya raised her gaze and looked at her teammates from the Ji Yuan and replied.
The huge gap between before and after made Shen Meng and Shen Meng very regretful and disappointed, as if they saw the national award slipping away from their hands.
Han Xiaoya didn't want to rely on others when she entered the competition, not to mention she was quite satisfied with her performance in the defense.
Seeing the expressions of his two teammates, he hugged their necks like a man.
"Do not worry."
"I am quite confident in us and we will definitely be selected for the National Award."
"I'll treat you to dinner at noon."
After saying that, before the two women could react, he forced them to find a place to eat for lunch.
…
…
After the competition area defense was over, Xu Yun declined the request for a dinner party and returned to the project site within the army without staying long.
It's not that he claims to be aloof and unsociable, but the main reason is that he received news from the Teito University Lidar Joint Laboratory yesterday.
Knew they had completed the custom radar module and would be sending it directly over today.
In the past two months, he has made the legs of the robot armor. Now as long as the radar module is in place, he can officially start assembling the head. Compared to the dinner party, this is definitely more exciting and exciting.
Xu Yun just returned to the gate in the afternoon and saw an obviously foreign vehicle parked here.
The people inside the car seemed to be talking to the soldiers on guard and wanted to drive in.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Yun recognized the other party as Tang Kang, a member of the joint laboratory, almost as soon as he saw this scene.
After all, that shiny bald head is too eye-catching.
When he was invited to the Teito University Joint Laboratory to conduct research on solid-state lidar projects, it was Tang Kang who picked him up at the station.
Unexpectedly, this time the other party also drove over to deliver the radar module.
Recognizing the other party's identity, Xu Yun walked over to greet him without any hesitation.
"Senior Brother Tang."
Tang Kang didn't seem to expect to meet Xu Yun outside. He was in a daze for a moment and was about to speak before he quickly changed his words.
"Xu...Professor Xu Da."
"It's better to call me Junior Brother. Why did you drive here from the Imperial Capital to deliver the radar module?"
Xu Yun didn't put on any airs at all, and he still behaved like the ordinary graduate student he was when he first arrived in the imperial capital.
Tang Kang didn't dwell too much on the issue of address, and opened his mouth to answer the main topic.
"Aren't we afraid of delaying your use? Academician Pan just finished making it and asked me to deliver it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he added: "They are all radar modules made according to your requirements, and the quantity is specially increased. I believe they can definitely meet your needs." After that, he opened the trunk to reveal the radar inside. Mod box.
He still believes in the quality of Teito University LiDAR Joint Laboratory.
What's more, the technology has already been upgraded and can be applied to robot armor.
"I'll just move in later. I'll thank you for the hard work this time."
Xu Yun stopped Tang Kang from opening the box and thanked him for driving the radar so far away.
But at this time, Tang Kang's face was full of curiosity and he couldn't help but ask about other things.
"There is something that I think is quite strange. I may need Professor Xu Da's help to answer my questions."
"Isn't the project you are currently working on an exoskeleton? Why do you need so many state-of-the-art lidar modules?"
For Tang Kang, although exoskeletons are not his area of expertise, he must have studied relevant information.
He really couldn't imagine what kind of exoskeleton would require so many advanced radar modules.
But thinking about Xu Yun's previous performance on solid-state lidar, I always feel that Xu Yun's project should not be that simple. If it was really sparse and ordinary, it wouldn't be called Xu Yun.
Xu Yun also had a smile on his face after listening to Tang Kang's words. Unexpectedly, the other party was quite concerned about his project.
"Do you want to go inside with me? There may be unexpected surprises."
"Is that okay?" Tang Kang nodded expectantly.
Xu Yun saw Tang Kang's performance in his eyes, and the smile on his face suddenly became brighter.
"Then you have to sign a confidentiality agreement first. What do you think? Do you want to read it?"
At this time, Tang Kang also heard the joking meaning in Xu Yun's words, and his expression immediately froze on his face.
After thinking for a moment, he finally shook his head and chose to refuse.
"forget it."
"It won't be too late for me to know after your project is completely completed. At least it won't be a semi-finished product by then."
Although Tang Kang did not intend to go in, Xu Yun, as the host, still offered to treat the guests to dinner.
However, Tang Kang also chose to refuse, saying that he would rush back to the imperial capital to return the car to Academician Pan. As for the meal, he would put it in his account and wait for the next meeting.
After sending Tang Kang away, Xu Yun decisively entered seclusion again.
He asked Cui Chi to help carry the radar module back from the box, and immediately started making the robot's armored head.
When you are immersed in something, time often feels like it passes very quickly.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
Relying on his previous research on the drawings of the automated intelligent module robot, he successfully produced it completely.
…
"The defense system test was successful and the time for rapid deployment of the defense wall was within the ideal range."
On December 3, 2019, Xu Yun looked at the tall door frame-style modular robot armor in front of him and was very satisfied with the test results just now.
Looking at it at a glance, the height of the entire robot is about two and a half meters.
In addition to the shaping fluorocarbon polymer coating inside, the outermost layer is sprayed with silver-gray metallic paint.
At this time, the defensive wall in the middle of the legs is in an unfolded state, revealing the outer layer of light blue shaping fluorocarbon polymer coating.
Because the shaped fluorocarbon polymer material has undergone all-round testing and experiments, it can be guaranteed that the defensive wall can withstand general fire attacks and protect the safety of the soldiers behind it.
There is no need to conduct brute force attack testing at the moment.
Looking up along the two long legs of the robot armor, you can see the head composed of camera module, radar module and weapon module.
There is also a screen in the upper left corner.
The weapons installed on the robot armor require special production, which cannot be completed temporarily with the equipment in the factory.
In the end, Xu Yun chose a stun gun to ensure the functional integrity of the robot's armor.
After all, without the weapon module, the defense system alone becomes a walking bulletproof shield.
There will be a significant drop in performance.
A few days ago, the solid-state battery laboratory has sent customized all-solid-state batteries.
It was after Xu Yun completed the assembly that he started testing various functions.
“It’s time to move this door frame next.”
After confirming that there was no problem with the defense system, Xu Yun picked up the control device next to him and put it on his hand.
One of the action modes of the robot armor is to be remotely controlled by soldiers, who can also wear VR eyes to synchronize visual images.
The other is the autonomous functional mode, such as acting as a security check.
The main reason is that the development of artificial intelligence is still relatively limited at the moment. Otherwise, robots can move on their own by implanting artificial intelligence.
Almost as Xu Yun finished speaking, he saw the big guy in front of him move his legs under his control.
The way they walk looks no different from humans.
Fortunately, no outsiders came in at this time. Otherwise, if I saw a doorframe walking with legs in the factory, I might have thought that I was awake and dreaming.
The factory building provided by Yu Hongda is large enough and does not affect the walking of the robot armor.
After a period of testing, all data were within a reasonable range without any problems.
This also means that Xu Yun's powered exoskeleton armor project is completed, although this exoskeleton armor is slightly different from what everyone thought.
"Based on the energy density of the all-solid-state batteries in each module, even the running mode can last for a long time, which can basically meet the time requirements of special tasks."
"The only thing that needs to be tested next is the weapon system."
Xu Yun muttered to himself after reading the test data, but he was a little confused during the final weapon test.
It was impossible for him to personally experience the feeling of being hit by a stun gun.
However, the voltage and battery life issues of the stun gun have been tested, and there is no need to actually test them at the moment.
It is also worth mentioning that although the doorframe robot exoskeleton armor has been completed, he is not ready to immediately conclude the project and accept the project results.
According to the mission requirements, he will have to work here for at least a month, and it is certainly impossible for him to leave midway.
So after careful consideration, he decided to wait until the task was completed before accepting the project results. During this period, he could try to study some small things.
