Minke's black technology

Chapter 365 Upgrade Version
The origin of virtual reality technology is very old. As early as the 60s of last century, some people were conducting research in this area, but it was in the embryonic stage of technology at that time, so the virtual reality that can be achieved is very rough, and it can even be said to be quite naive.

Strictly speaking, video games are also a kind of virtual reality technology. For example, Pong, the first interactive video game developed by Nolan Bushnell, can also be regarded as an application of virtual reality technology.

It was not until the 80s and [-]s that someone really proposed the concept of virtual reality, and then applied it to data gloves, Mars exploration displays, binocular omnidirectional monitors, and so on.

Then came the VR technology that combines three-dimensional graphics generation technology, multi-sensor interaction technology and high-resolution display technology. After entering the 21st century, VR technology has developed rapidly, and the software development system has been continuously improved, until the Snake Eye VR of Meow Star Group When the equipment is on the market, VR technology is truly mature.

It's just that most virtual reality technologies can only realize partial perception functions in terms of vision, hearing, and touch. It is still very difficult to achieve the level of all five senses, and only Meow Star Lab and a few The international scientific research center has the ability to research and develop.

"In order for users to fully immerse themselves in the virtual reality space we built, they must enter a special cabin to isolate all interference from the outside world!" said the project director.

Li Maoye nodded and said, "It means this is a fully immersive VR technology?"

Virtual reality technology can be divided into full immersion and semi-immersion in terms of experience level. Generally speaking, if you want to get a better experience, the effect of full immersion must be better, but semi-immersion also has a large user market. After all, human beings It is not possible to completely break away from reality and enter the virtual space without interference. It is very likely that an emergency call comes in during the experience and you have to leave.

The movie "Ready Player One" is semi-immersive. They are processing information in the real world while receiving spatial information in virtual reality. They can return to reality just by taking off their glasses, and their virtual reality technology At most, only the three senses of audio-visual and touch have been realized, which is still far away from the level of having all five senses.

According to the introduction of the project director, in addition to researching fully immersive virtual reality, they also have semi-immersive technology, and the experience of that kind of virtual reality is much worse.

In addition to the way of entering the cabin, the fully immersive experience can also be achieved through the internal chip, but this technology is under development and has not yet been tested.

The semi-immersive experience is much simpler. Just put on a pair of snake-eye VR equipment, you can connect to the server host through the network, and then enter the virtual reality space that has been built long ago, and interact with the NPC and other players inside. interact.

This technology is not much different from the current VR technology on the market. At most, it is further optimized in terms of color, sound, motion and touch in the virtual space to make it closer to the real world.

Li Maoye came here to check the technical level of the project team's research and development. Of course, the focus should be on the effect of the fully immersive experience, so with the help of the staff, he injected a special carbon nanomachine, then put on a special tights and attached the sensor, and then lay down according to the instructions. Go inside the cabin and wait for the test to start.

After a while, he felt the air around him stagnate for a moment, and then a light appeared inside the originally pitch-black cabin, and then he found that he had changed from lying flat to a standing posture, and appeared in a colorful nightclub lobby inside.

"Oh? It's interesting!" Li Maoye carefully understood the difference between the virtual space and the real world. If he only relied on the five senses to judge, he would indeed mistakenly think that he had left the cabin and came outside, but as a man with a system, he can clearly " See" himself lying motionless in the cabin.

Being able to deceive the five senses of the human body to such an extent really represents the highest technological level of Blue Star, and it also uses a lot of black technology from Meow Star Laboratory, such as carbon nanomachines, human organ signal simulation technology and VR cabin body and so on.

However, as Li Maoye walked around and observed, he quickly found many places that were different from reality. For example, the color of objects rendered was a bit thicker than the real world, which made people feel like they were in a movie scene. It is much larger and has a strong visual impact.

From the perspective of game entertainment, this kind of appropriate difference from reality is necessary, not only can people immediately distinguish the difference between virtual and reality, but also remind users that they are in a virtual space at all times, so as not to confuse virtual and reality Together, and then regardless of true and false, resulting in mental abnormalities.

In addition, the tactile signal of the five senses has been weakened by about one-third. It is estimated that on the one hand, it is a technical problem. After all, it is difficult to achieve 100% tactile sensation, and there will definitely be weakening and deviation to varying degrees.

The other is to prevent the pain in the tactile sensation from exceeding the user's threshold. Since each person has different tolerance for pain, it is difficult to accurately set it, so simply limit it to a relatively low level, so that accidents will not occur. .

"It's a more tricky way, but it's okay!" Li Maoye commented.

Then there is the common problem of virtual reality technology. The more realistic and smooth the scene, the greater the demand for computing power. Even if the supercomputer of the Meow Star Lab is used as the server, it is impossible to achieve 100% real virtuality. It is necessary to balance reality and To coexist smoothly, you have to find a balance among them.

When Li Maoye kept zooming in on a certain area in the scene in front of him until he could no longer zoom in, he found that the nail-sized texture could be zoomed in to 1024 times the size, which was much bigger than a city wall.

"The multiple of 2 to the 10th power is very realistic!"

Estimated based on this data, the accuracy of the virtual space developed by Meow Star Lab is more than 30 times the VR value on the market. It is indeed worthy of the project developers to be proud, but it still does not meet the minimum requirements of Li Maoye.

As for the NPCs and plot flow in the virtual space, he didn't touch them to experience them. From the data at hand, it can be judged that the intelligence level of NPCs is extremely low, not even one-tenth of that of Computer Angel. It is also a way to save computing power.

Judging from the plot flow, the size of the virtual space does not exceed the size of a small town, probably much smaller than the city in "Soul Shifting City", and people are still in the city inside the spaceship, so it can be seen that the maximum number of people it can accommodate will not exceed one More than ten thousand.

Even though the seven-layer illusion technology they boasted, in Li Maoye's view, it was just a map and a map that was repeatedly put on seven, making people mistakenly think that they woke up in the cabin every time they entered a new map, but in fact they were still in place. But I was deceived by people using nesting doll technology.

"The design is very ingenious, but it doesn't work for people who are prepared. After all, a fake is always a fake. As long as you push it to the limit in a certain aspect, you can find the problem!"

After Li Maoye figured out the basic situation, he immediately broke away from the virtual space, and then talked about its advantages and disadvantages, which made the project director's forehead drip with sweat.

"Yes, yes, what you said is absolutely right!" The project manager thought that the research and development results in his hand could get the attention of the boss, and there must be some success in it, but after listening to this analysis, he It was found that this thing was far from meeting Li Maoye's requirements.

"However, your basic work is really good, and you can even use it directly without any changes. Now I provide a design plan, and you can find a way to realize it." Li Maoye said while gesturing to the other party to accept the information file. In the laboratory area, smart devices can be used on the body to transfer data files conveniently and quickly.

The project director of the virtual space technology immediately received a document. He received it using a personal terminal, opened it and immediately recognized the prototype of the design plan.

"Tianxin lotus ring and psychic local area network?" the project director asked in a low voice.

As a research and development staff of the Meow Star Laboratory, I am very familiar with these two things. Since I entered the laboratory to do research and development work, I immediately knew that if I want to become stronger, I have to become a bald head. Increase thinking speed and inspire inspiration.

Every R&D staff loves and hates it. Anyone who shaved his head will find a way to develop a new Tianxin lotus ring to restore hair volume. At the same time, they would rather be bald than give up the blessing of the spiritual LAN.

It's a pity that after so many years, they have not realized this small wish. Even though there are rumors that Qin Hua and others have successfully developed it, but before seeing the finished product, everyone still treats it cautiously. After all, there were rumors that the wolf is coming It happened so much that everyone became immune to it.

It wasn't until today that the project manager saw the information about the new Tianxin lotus ring and the soul LAN that he realized that Qin Hua and others might have really succeeded, otherwise he wouldn't have seen the boss here.

That's right, Li Maoye modified and optimized the new Tianxin lotus ring. Even though the appearance is still the original bone conduction earphone shape, the actual function has changed a lot.

In addition, his technology needs to implant carbon nanochips in the human brain, so as to control the new Tianxin lotus ring to exert its maximum effect, otherwise its effect will be the same as that developed by Qin Hua and others, and Li Maoye cannot enter Li Maoye's design for this purpose. mental virtual space.

"This is an upgraded version of the spiritual LAN, a design I just completed!" Li Maoye introduced.

The project director was still attracted by the design drawings, but he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. Li Maoye had indeed designed the plan just now, and it started when he came out of the cabin.

"This isn't a LAN anymore!"

　The house cat is in a bad state recently, and I hope to recover as soon as possible!
