Minke's black technology

Chapter 246 Carbon Nano Prosthesis

In fact, as early as Computer Angel 2.0, there were film companies with foot-pot chickens doing it like this.

They spend high prices to customize computer angels in various shapes from manufacturers, and then shoot various indoor movies for sale. The consumer groups are otaku.

This kind of film is low-cost to produce, with a large amount of management, and the filming speed is also very fast. Many newly established small companies have risen rapidly by relying on this method, and soon overwhelmed many established film companies.

After Computer Angel 3.0 came out, the price of real Angels skyrocketed by more than several times, the cost of shooting similar movies soared, and the market competition became increasingly fierce. Only powerful film production companies could continue to do so.

Due to the improvement of the performance of Computer Angel in all aspects and the increasingly perfect functions in all aspects, the entertainment circles of various countries have been greatly impacted. As a result, many stars have stood up to boycott Computer Angel, wanting the country to legislate to prohibit non-human filming and so on.

But using computer angels to make movies is just like computer special effects. It is a major trend of technological development, and no matter how much stars resist it, it cannot stop its coming.

At present, computer angels are more restricted, and many types of movies cannot play the leading role in them. In most cases, they can only appear as a background or supporting role, or become the protagonist of a special movie in the San Fernando Valley.

Just because in this kind of film, the use of computer angels to film not only perfectly circumvents legal restrictions, but also saves a lot of shooting costs.

The key point is that computer angels are not human beings, and they don’t have a series of demands such as welfare benefits. If you don’t worry about wear and tear, you can work 24 hours a day.

The only problem with this type of film is that if these companies sell the film, they will infringe on the star's portrait rights, so they will specially customize a batch of computer angels that are [-]% similar to the star, instead of directly using the star series of angels.

In this way, even if disputes arise, legal loopholes can be exploited, and there is no need to pay celebrities compensation fees.

"That's the latest style of angel!"

On the streets of Pengcheng, Minty held up her mobile phone to record videos. She had never seen so many computer angels. She would meet computer angels in a few steps, and there were all kinds of styles.

At the beginning, Minty was extremely excited and used her mobile phone to take snaps, but she didn't think it was surprising after seeing a lot of them. After all, this is the city where computer angels were born, and it's normal for them to have more numbers.

Computer Angel is considered a rarity among Bald Eagles. After all, the price of Computer Angel 3.0 is not low. It is not an item that ordinary people can use. It is similar to a Rolls-Royce luxury car.

In addition to Computer Angel, Minty found a cute robot in many shops, with a cylindrical body, a head made up of looking glasses, and two retractable arms, quite nimble and light.

The shopkeeper uses it to attract customers, and it can also act as a clerk. Anyway, the payment is done by scanning the code, and it only needs to do a good job of guiding and supervising.

"Wow! Why does this robot look like Wall-E?"

Minty immediately discovered that this robot was very similar to the protagonist in a certain cartoon, but after careful observation, he still found many differences.

After asking the shop owner, she learned that this is also a product of the Meow Star Group, and it is a newly launched nanny robot, also called a robot assistant. It has strong home functions, and many people bought it back to help take care of the elderly. Cooking, cooking, laundry, housekeeping, etc. are all done very well.

"The key is that the price is cheap. Only 20 yuan is equivalent to an extra labor force!" said the shop owner.

Minty nodded her head in praise. She felt that her family lacked two such robot nanny, one for herself and one for her parents.

It's a pity that this kind of robot nanny has not been sold abroad. It is quite troublesome to buy it back, and you have to go through customs inspection, because some people in Western countries say that this kind of robot has been installed with a back door, and its safety is not guaranteed.

"What a stupid politician!"

Mingdy cursed inwardly, she could only put this thought behind her and get ready to go to the hospital for surgery. Just now, the APP on her mobile phone received a notification that it was her turn to have surgery tomorrow afternoon.

Hospital, carbon nano-prosthetic operating room.

Minty found that it was not the same as an ordinary operating room. Instead of seeing common things such as operating table and scalpel, it was a bit like a CT examination room, because there was only a huge equipment in the room, which could allow people to lie down, and then Automatically scan around a certain part of the human body.

"Please take off the prosthesis and lie on it," the doctor said to Minty.

Since Minty received the prosthetic upgrade surgery, she does not need to re-implant the control ball. She only needs to fill the end of the residual limb with carbon nano-robots, and then control the carbon nano-robots through the device to form a prosthetic base, and finally upgrade the prosthetic. OK.

It is said that the cost can be reduced by one-third, and there will be hundreds of thousands of dollars left over for Minty's surgery to take home.

The doctor tapped a few times on the computer keyboard in front of him, entered the basic information into the device, and started it up. At the same time, he injected the carbon nanorobot liquid, and saw three conical nozzles protruding from the device, spinning around Mindy's body quickly. After several laps, it moved to the position of the right arm and sprayed white liquid.

During the operation, Minty's consciousness was still very clear, but she was fixed on the equipment platform by two belts, lying motionless, only felt that the three cone nozzles were like a 3D printer, constantly moving up and down on her right arm Move left and right, and print while moving.

The carbon nanorobot liquid gives people a very strange feeling. At first, it looks a little cold like water, and then it starts to heat up and heat up, about [-] degrees, accompanied by itching and numbness.

There was no pain in the whole process, which was completely different from the imagined surgery.

After about 15 minutes, when Minty was in a daze, she suddenly felt that the machine stopped working, and then the whole platform moved out, and then the nurse next to her came to help her untie the belt.

"The operation is done, very successful!" The doctor said to her.

Minty looked down at his right arm, and found that it hadn't changed in any way except that it had grown a bit longer, and there was no other feeling when touching it with his left hand, and he could clearly see the pores and lines on it, as well as The touch of the left hand.

"This is the prosthetic base?"

Minty recalled the instruction manual he had read, which mentioned some basic principles related to prosthetic limbs. It is probably that after using carbon nanorobots combined with the human body, it can perfectly imitate the shape of a flesh and blood body, but in fact the extra One amputated limb is composed entirely of carbon nanobots.

Just as she kept touching or kneading the base of the prosthetic limb, the nurse next to her had already brought over the modified mechanical prosthesis, just like her current prosthetic base, the original rubber skin of the prosthesis was also bionic with carbon nanomachines. Instead, it looks exactly like her right arm.

The modified mechanical prosthetic has removed the fixed belt, but the original groove still exists, and some of its basic functions and parameter settings are still retained.

When Minty put the prosthetic on the base as usual wearing socks, and then automatically activated the prosthetic program, a miraculous scene appeared. The bionic skin on the base automatically covered it without leaving any gaps, and finally heard A slight locking sound.

At the same time, Minty felt that the prosthetic was integrated with her. She could even clearly feel the breeze blowing through the hair on the skin of the prosthetic. When she touched the skin of the prosthetic with her left hand, she could also clearly feel the touch.

"It's just as real!"

What Minty means is the literal meaning. She really feels that her right arm is back. The original mechanical prosthetic lacks bionic skin, even though she can sense all the sensors in the prosthetic through the control ball to control the mechanical The strength of the prosthetic limb to grasp and place is still unable to perceive objects through the rubber skin.

It's completely different now. The carbon nano-bionic skin is just like the real skin, which can transmit a lot of tactile signals to her, and it even feels much clearer than the real arm.

"The touch is too strong!"

Minty found himself a little uncomfortable. The presence of the right arm was many times stronger than that of the left arm, which made people involuntarily focus on the prosthesis, so that they ignored the existence of the left arm, and there was always a feeling of imbalance between left and right.

The doctor has long been used to this, and he quickly explained: "This is because the brain has lost the right arm for too long, so it suddenly regains signal stimulation and cannot adapt. You can automatically adjust the strength of the signal through the prosthetic program."

Then a nurse took Minty to the waiting room to the side, and told her to get used to the use of the new prosthetic before leaving. There were also many people stretching their arms and legs, gearing up for the same process of adaptation.

Since Minty had the experience of installing a mechanical prosthesis once, she quickly found the knack, quickly adjusted the strength of the signal output, adapted to the feeling of the prosthetic, and quickly controlled it freely.

After confirming that there was no problem, Minty strode out confidently. She saw many disabled people walking into this building. When these people left, they would become normal people with all limbs just like her.

However, when she left the hospital, she suddenly found a commotion in front of her. It turned out that someone came from a long distance from abroad and wanted to have prosthetic surgery at her own expense. However, she didn’t have enough money and she still owed tens of thousands of dollars, so she went to the hospital. I want to win sympathy by selling miserably.

Since that person is not a rabbit from a flower planter, he cannot enjoy the 90% reimbursement policy of medical insurance benefits, and needs to pay the full cost of the prosthetic surgery. Security personnel dragged him away.

Seeing this tragic situation, Minty shook her head and sighed, "It's so pitiful!"

Having said that, she didn't kindly take out her own money and asked the other party to pay the money to queue up for an appointment for surgery, so she could only pretend that she didn't see it and leave quickly.
