Chapter 1190 How far is virtual reality

After the critical breakthrough of Siyan technology has made a broad development space, the core of Siyan technology is moving in two directions, one is the more sensitive and miniaturized Siyan transmitting device, and the other is the feedback device.

Compared with the latter, although the road to miniaturization of sensation equipment is difficult, it has already seen the direction from afar, so what is left is to move towards the goal step by step. There is no difficulty at the theoretical level, and the difficulty is at the implementation level.

Su Weimin has never been interested in this kind of research project that lacks challenges, so when he saw this fact clearly, he immediately turned to another direction.

Xing Yutong initially studied software, but soon Xing Yutong discovered that the essence of the algorithms involved in software and the new network transmission protocol is actually a problem of positioning virtual reality technology, that is, a height problem.

Simply put, if you use a head-mounted thinking device and then use purely vision and auditory to perform virtual reality operations, this is a pretty simple thing. Just like in reality, remotely controlled model aircraft, it is not difficult or even easier, because more action packages can be set in the program to simplify operations, and even automatically limit unreasonable operations.

In reality, there are many people who cannot control remote-controlled aircraft, but there are no ones who cannot control remote-controlled aircraft in the virtual world. Therefore, Xing Yutong's research goal is not this at all, but the reverse feedback of the program.

If virtual reality is simply realized in the form of thought manipulation, then this virtual reality is too simple. Compared with real reality, it is not just a lack of smell, taste, and touch. Even if there is only one missing, virtual reality is always virtual and has no sense of reality at all.

Xing Yutong found that if you want to get the highest possible sense of reality, you must accurately convey the feedback from the virtual world to the user. This feedback is not achieved by the shaking seats, electric pumps that can spray water, and blowers that can emit fragrance in 3D cinemas, let alone this way, users who use virtual reality must use a huge device.

If we only use this kind of workaround to create a virtual world, what Xing Yutong needs to design is algorithms and data models that convey these feelings and interactions, which is not very difficult. However, Xing Yutong is obviously unwilling to accept this compromise method. She is a perfectionist, she is also a sorcerer, and the height she stands at is also very high. She believes that since the thinking device can convey human thoughts, it should also be able to convey feedback. Just like the Ruyi Illusion God Array.

So from the beginning, Xing Yutong's goal was to combine the Ruyi Illusion Divine Array with the Thinking Technology. Therefore, the virtual reality system and network she wanted to design were completely different from the existing network technology. Not to mention the real-life transmission and conversion of core technology, the amount of data needed to be transmitted by the network exchange itself is astonishingly large, and the requirements for the speed are also astonishingly high. Moreover, the transmission process is required to be equal. This kind of data transmission, at least the current technology and standards cannot be realized.

Despite the difficulties, Xing Yutong was still very persistent in designing the virtual reality network in his mind. There are many things involved, including brand new algorithms and standards, including reverse thinking equipment, high-speed transmission systems, transmission systems and other hardware equipment. This idea is definitely a huge project, and the difficulty coefficient is as high as 9. It is precisely because of the high difficulty that Su Weimin plunged in like a moth extinguishing the fire. The two madmen were immersed in it day and night and began a arduous research process.

The first direction that Su Weimin and Xing Yutong chose was the reverse feedback device of the thinking sensor.

It is very difficult to manufacture reverse feedback equipment. The difficulty does not lie in the hardware. However, they have a very good start and sample in their hands, which is the Ruyi Illusion God Array. Although they do not fully understand the detailed principles of the Ruyi Illusion God Array and cannot make the Ruyi Illusion God Array, they have the framework principle of the Ruyi Illusion God Array provided by Fangshi in their hands, which is enough.

In fact, Su Weimin believes that he does not need to create a magical device that can instill vision, hearing, taste, smell and touch into the human brain based on network data. That kind of thing is really too difficult, and it is even more unrealistic than implementing Xing Yutong's high-speed, large-bandwidth data transmission network.

To achieve panoramic feedback from virtual reality, the user's own imagination is the key. Just like the illusion performed by the warlock, it actually does not convey so many things to the recipient. The warlock just passes a false keyword, such as passing on the message that you see a tree, how tall the remaining tree grows, what tree is, how leaves, etc. are all fantasized by the recipient themselves.

Therefore, what Su Weimin needs to do is to accurately and effectively pass these keywords to users through an electromagnetic instrument.

This is accurate and effective and simple, but it is actually quite difficult. In what order and rhythm the keywords are transmitted? What is the process and algorithm for real-life restoration and extraction of keywords? Finally, it is necessary to interact according to the user's thinking. The difficulty level here is absolutely amazing.

Fang Shi had known their research direction for a long time. In fact, Xing Yutong would naturally report to Fang Shi for this research plan. Fang Shi also supported this direction. It was precisely because Fang Shi knew that he also knew that Su Weimin and Xing Yutong still had a long way to go to make a breakthrough.

However, when Fang Shi saw the simple picture on the screen, he was still very shocked.

The talents of these two people will definitely make most people envious and jealous. Fang Shi couldn't help but look at Academician Yuan. The old man smiled very happily. After all, the two young people who created this miracle were both his students.

"How is it? Isn't it amazing?"

Academician Yuan asked proudly, and the expression on Su Weimin's face was also very proud, while Xing Yutong was a little worried, and at the same time she was full of expectations, like a child waiting for her elders to evaluate her works. Of course, she was indeed a child.

"Yes, it's really amazing. I didn't expect you to be able to do this in such a short time, especially the real-life restoration and extraction process, which is definitely eye-catching, no, I'm shocked."

Su Weimin smiled, and a sweet smile appeared on Xing Yutong's little face. Her happy look made everyone around her feel very happy.

There are two running puppies on the screen, but these two puppies are different. One is a white pug and the other is a larger wolf dog. These two virtual scenes are actually controlled by two people. These two people also control a dog in virtual reality, running, turning and jumping according to Su Weimin's instructions. Although the details are completely different, the whole process is quite smooth.

Academician Yuan smiled for a while, and then said to Su Weimin: "You can continue."

Su Weimin nodded and typed it on the keyboard with a smile. The instructions issued this time were more detailed.

"The control target is cancelled and the new target is established. This is a black and white spotted dog with a height of 30 cm, a body length of 60 cm, and a tail of about 20 cm."

Su Weimin sent the order out in a very casual manner, and then on the screen in front of Fang Shi, two spotted dogs appeared one after another. Although the two spotted dogs were quite similar, there was still obvious difference, at least, the locations of the spots were different.

Fang Shi raised his eyebrows and praised with a smile: "Yes, this is already comparable to the clever illusion spell."

Su Weimin smiled and said, "Master Fang, don't be surprised so quickly, the show has just begun."

Next, the line in the middle of the screen disappeared, the screen pulled a long view, and the two dogs stood face to face to face in a environment. Fang Shi's eyes shrank and he looked at Xing Yutong in surprise. Xing Yutong raised his eyebrows proudly and nodded gently at Fang Shi.

Fang Shi turned around and looked at the screen. At this time, the two dogs gradually ran from slow to fast. The two dogs got closer and closer, and then they bit each other. At the beginning, the movement was quite stiff and slow, looking like slow motion, but this situation improved rapidly. Fang Shi knew that this was because the two experimenters were familiar with this interaction method.

However, the action of two dogs fighting and fighting has never reached the level of intense and agility in reality. This may be a system bottleneck or a bottleneck for the experimenter.

"Is this a system restriction or a human factor?"

Su Weimin seemed to know exactly what Fang Shi wanted to ask, and turned his head and replied: "It's a system factor. Human thinking speed is very fast. In the virtual world, animals controlled by human thinking should be more agile than animals in reality. This bottleneck is now because our computing speed cannot keep up."

"Calculate speed?"

This time, Xing Yutong replied: "Elder is the bottleneck in keyword extraction. We need to accurately extract an action into a keyword and accurately send it to the opposite side, which requires a lot of calculations."

Fang Shi was stunned for a moment: "Extract keywords, do you mean, you extract the dog's movements into keywords, and then send them to the opposite operator's equipment, and then extract the keywords from the other dog's movements, and then send them to another operator?"

Xing Yutong nodded: "Yes, is there any problem?"

Fang Shi suddenly laughed: "Have you ever thought about directly connecting these two people's feelings? In fact, the two people who are fighting do not need to know what the two dogs are doing? Only bystanders need to know. Therefore, the target you need to extract keywords and pass on is the bystanders, not the two people who control the dog."

The reason Fang Shi said is actually very simple, just like playing blind chess. The one who really needs to watch the chessboard is actually the onlookers, and both sides of the chess play do not need the chessboard at all, and the chessboard is in their respective minds. (To be continued...)
