.

Nord is a dedicated intelligence officer. He has been in a very short time with the fans of this drama.

Game enthusiasts like to boast about their achievements in front of others. They are very happy to give him detailed guidance when asked about his shame.

However, when night came, he got into the sleeping bag sent by his boss, lay on the edge of London street, feeling the gust of autumn wind, his good mood disappeared, leaving only the sad feeling of sorrow.

After two days of queueing, Arnold's face was unshaven, his hair was messy, and his suit worth thousands of euros became wrinkled, like a homeless man on the side of the road.

But what made him masturbate was that his image was not the worse for others.

The queue that was several kilometers long two days ago is no longer there. After the United Manufacturing Alliance London Company came forward and counted the queues, they persuaded the others to withdraw, which finally relieved some of the police's pressure.

Paris, Berlin, London, Amsterdam, each city has 2,500 volunteer testers, exactly 10,000.

The testing location is in the United Manufacturing Alliance and various companies.

In the past three months, they have to stay here, under the guidance of technicians, experience virtual reality games, find out the bugs and improve the defects of game equipment and game programs.

The conditions are not good, nor are they too bad. Eight people in a room, each with their own bed, no longer having to sleep in a sleeping bag, or they can line up to share the shower. Arnold took a comfortable bath, shaved his beard, and changed into a clean shirt. But the food was too monotonous, and they were all junk foods such as hot dog coffee purchased by the company from fast food restaurants. They were OK to fill their stomachs, but there was no nutrition at all.

Those gamers can ignore them. But Arnold only dreams of the hot steak every time he eats, and he swallows it hard.

Those impatient game fans were anxious and called for a trial game to be played immediately. For them, coming here is to experience high-realistic games, not on vacation.

They are very enthusiastic, and the computer company will not be polite.

After just half a day of washing, the players who signed up for the test started to send a large carton to them by pressing the rooms and asking them to open it for the time being and try it out later based on their knowledge.

These game fans don’t have that good patience. As soon as the staff left, they opened the cartons in front of them one after another.

There are a lot of things in the box. There is a pair of instruments that look like diving mirrors, a plastic instrument box, a thick-looking tights, and several wires.

"Ha, this thing like a diving glass should be a virtual video device!" A game fan named Howard looked very experienced. He whistled and picked up the pair of virtual video glasses and looked up and down.

Arnold picked up his video glasses without hesitation. He soon found a flat data socket: "Hi! This is the interface to connect to the video input, but it seems there is no power jack."

"Of course, you look at the manual," said a game fan named Charles, who looked at the manual from the box with great sophistication. "This is a flexible LCD screen, which only requires a No. 7 battery to drive. You look for the data cable. Just insert one end into the data slot. There is also a set of down-turn headsets connected to the glasses."

Everyone else quickly found the special data cable from the box and quickly connected it.

"The other end is connected to the frequency-dividing data processor..., the frequency-dividing data processor, well, it's that plastic box, which requires power to drive..."

A group of people quickly connected the relevant equipment, and there was a multi-functional power supply plug-in just by the window.

There is no need for Charles to explain it again below. Apart from Arnold, they have at least many years of gaming experience, so they immediately found a new connection.

This is a monitor cable, with standard VG|V plugs at one end.

"This is a multi-display frequency divider!" A player may be working in a computer company. After looking at the monitor connection, he was stunned for a moment, and then shouted, "Does the two screens of video glasses accept the display signals respectively?"

"Multiple monitors..., it seems that the display signals received by both eyes are not the same!" Howard said in surprise and looked up at other people in the ground.

Two left and right eyes, two independent monitors...

"Stereometric image!" Everyone shouted in unison.

They suddenly became excited.

Very cool!

They would like to think that this pair of video glasses can simulate a full-view image display of a large-size screen, which is enough. After all, this is intended for commercial products, and merchants need to make enough profits and cannot expect higher.

This is also the simplest way to implement virtual reality as they expected.

But now it seems that Universal has obviously adopted a more advanced reality technology: three-dimensional display technology!

The distance of a person's eyes is determined by the distance between the two eyes. The distance generated by the two images with slightly different perspectives received is determined after the fusion of the brain.

Since the video glasses in China World use two independent monitors to receive signals separately, it is bound to be impossible to use a flat display (that is, two identical images)!

"Oh! Great! I'm going to try it out right now! God, I can't wait for a quarter of an hour!" Howard indeed found two display signal sockets on the crossover. His hands were trembling, and he quickly connected the plug, and then searched for the source of the video signal.

"What is this tights for?" Arnold lifted the tights and felt that there seemed to be something else in the tights.

"Don't worry about that damn tights! I'm looking for a computer now! Computer!" Howard turned his head and looked around in the room madly, looking for a computer.

Arnold pinched the tights in confusion, confirming that there was something else in the tights. There were two flat lines that pinched up like data cables, extending from the shoulders to the back collar, and then connecting them from the back.

At the back swing edge, he found a data jack.

He searched in the box and found a flat data cable from it, which was inserted into the jack behind the tights.

The data cable is very long. He compared the shape of the jack and found the corresponding jack on the so-called ground frequency divider.

"Arnold! You're still fiddling with that tights, we're going to start playing!" A game fan couldn't help laughing when he saw Arnold holding the tights and looking for the switch. He showed off to him.

Arnold put down his tights and saw everyone huddling in front of the TV cabinet close to the door. He was stunned for a moment, and pointed at the TV in disbelief and said, "No way? Is this our computer?"

Howard squatted on the ground, took off the video glasses on his head, and laughed with a face: "Who said this is a computer? It's just a signal interface and a wireless keyboard. I figured it out, the computer is no longer in the room we live in. We are just connected to the server through the internal network. Now the server is not turned on, and there is no signal."

Arnold just inserted his video signal connector into the socket in front of the TV cabinet, and the TV suddenly turned on automatically and the screen slowly lit up.

A lot of game fans quickly

In front of the sight, I sat on the ground with my butt.

Arnold stepped back a few steps and sat on the bed near the door.

On the screen is a scientist in a white coat, with his back facing the camera and looking at the computer.

You can see that the computer is covered with numbers. Most of the numbers have turned green, and a small part is still red.

The scientist turned his head, as expected, was an Asian. Needless to say, this was a scientist from the Universal Corporation.

"Hello everyone, I am Dr. Su Huan. I am in the laboratory of the Universal Company. Thanks to the Internet, we can have face-to-face communication in the invitation of thousands of miles. Thank you for your support for our Universal Company. I hope that these three months will leave us a pleasant memory." Dr. Su smiled and gave them an opening remark in pure London-style English, instead of American English that made the British feel vulgar, immediately won the welcome of these game enthusiasts.

After ten years of development, the Internet has been widely used in Europe, the United States, Asia and Oceania.

The network management company established by major network service providers around the world has become a super-government organization. The management company consists of five major service providers in the United States, seven initial service providers in Europe, Universal Corporation in Asia, two service providers in Japan, and government representatives from more than ten countries including China, the United States, Britain, France, Germany and Italy.

Of course, the dominant position here is still the fifteen Internet service providers in the world. If they join forces, they will occupy 60% of the voting rights.

Other government representatives are just representing governments and fighting for as much benefit as possible for themselves.

However, it seems that the 15 service providers are not completely united. Externally, they are of course united to protect their vested interests, but they are also fiercely competing with each other.

No one has ever doubted that they belong to the same person.

There is competition and progress. In major areas with the most developed Internet areas, such as Europe, the United States, China, Japan, and urban residents, the fiber-optic household rate has reached more than 60%, and the United States has even reached 90%.

The network transmission rate of each user also reached an astonishing ten megabytes downlink speed.

Faced with hundreds of millions of network users around the world, in addition to the annual network construction and maintenance expenditures, although sufficient profit space is left for agents below level 2, network service providers are still making a fortune and laughing from ear to ear.

Among the top 15 Internet service providers, Universal has the lowest fees, with a monthly subscription fee of only 60 yuan, and even less wealthy families have the ability to pay.

Anyway, for Xiao Qiang, the money he earned from the world has reached the point where he can squander and waste it at will. Why bother earning hard-earned money from the people who are not very wealthy? Let domestic users pay less, so that they can spend money where they need it more, which is also a meager contribution to supporting the country's economic construction.

Due to the vigorous development of the construction of the Universal Network, the Internet has become one of the basic tools that people cannot do without.

So much so that some people published articles in the media claiming that the 21st century is the Internet century.

It was also behind Xiao Qiang that although major network service providers competed continuously, they did not use secret tricks to calculate their opponents. There was no strange phenomenon like "from telecom to network communication is the farthest place in the world".

With the high speed of optical fiber transmission, even if it is connected from Beijing to London, Paris, Berlin and other parts of the world, there is only a transit period, and the delay of a little photoelectric conversion is not much different from global synchronization.

"I'm glad you're all very good game enthusiasts. From the display screen behind me, I can see that although I haven't taught you how to use these devices yet, there are more than 2,100 friends participating in the evaluation and they have connected the devices correctly, which is great! I feel that we will have a happy time together!"

Howard and others looked at each other and all smiled.

"We haven't sent a video signal just now. Friends who have put on virtual video glasses, so what we see from it is a standby picture. Now that the video signal is turned on, everyone pulls down the headset, and we can directly use the virtual video glasses suit to get familiar with the relevant equipment on the spot." Dr. Su's tone was very soft, like the wind sound.

Everyone couldn't wait to put on their virtual video glasses.

As soon as Arnold put on his glasses, he couldn't help but exclaim. He jumped up from the bed and quickly took his eyes off.

Just now, he found the image of Dr. Su's land, which seemed to appear in front of him. He seemed to be sitting in front of his bed. Although he knew it was an illusion, he couldn't help but jump up.

"Do you feel very incredible? Don't worry, I'm still sitting in the headquarters building of Universal Corporation, thousands of miles away from you. I don't have the ability to move instantly. This is just that everyone was deceived by their own eyes." As Dr. Su teased, a chuckle sounded in the room. Not only Arnold was surprised just now. The others were also inexplicably excited.

"We all know that we obtain stereoscopic images through the difference in position between the two eyes. Therefore, we can use a dual-lens camera to obtain stereoscopic video signals at one time and transmit them to servers in Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, and London. Through the virtual signal processor you have obtained, the channels are separated and transmitted to the LCD screens of your left and right eyes, and three-dimensional stereoscopic video images are realized. All of this depends entirely on the contribution of the Global Network to achieve more than twice the data transmission at the same time." Dr. Su complimented the construction of the global network at the end, and thoughtfully did not call it the Universal Network, but adopted the Western name: Global Network.

"We have learned about virtual three-dimensional video glasses, so let's get familiar with the operation."

As the camera moved away, several devices appeared in front of everyone who were familiar with each other: keyboard, mouse, gamepad, and rocker panel. At the end, there were two strange things.

These are two cylindrical objects, with grooves that look like hand-holding in the middle, and several buttons at the fingertips.

Dr. Su pointed to the keyboard and said, "I think everyone is very familiar with these things, so I don't need to say more. Now, I will focus on explaining the use of hand-held manipulators to you."

He reached out his hand, picked up the two manipulators, and his fingers naturally fit into the groove position.

He raised his left hand and approached the camera. He saw him pressing a button from his index finger to his little finger. His thumb pressed a turntable similar to a remote control of a video recorder and a shuttle-like turntable.

Dr. Su said, "Everyone is an excellent old player. When you look at the posture of holding the handle in my hand, you can actually guess how this hand holds the manipulator. Yes, the left hand is the direction key, and the four fingers correspond to the four directions of up, down, left and right. The shuttle pressed by the thumb is used to turn around and adjust the angle."

He changed the handle of the right hand: "It goes without saying that this is to control the movement. Hands, feet, jumps, lying down, and is also a shuttle for the big thumb, which is used to control the force. As an experienced old player, everyone should understand that light hands and light feet are faster, but the strike force is smaller, which is suitable for fast swaying. Heavy hands and feet, which can kill the enemy the most, but at the same time, the reaction is relatively slow. Others, such as jumping, also have a jump.

Distance is controlled by the shuttle on the right hand. We have created this set of exercises to facilitate everyone's game. You can either sit or lie on the bed, which saves more energy."

In the room, Howard and other game obsessed with games were scratching their ears and their heads and their hearts were itchy.

Before Dr. Su finished speaking, they took out two manipulators from the paper box. One of them marked up, down, left and right on the grip, and the other marked fists and feet.

Unfortunately, the main control computer has not started yet. Although their equipment has been installed, they still cannot try their skills. They can only look at Dr. Su and continue to explain.

"We can choose these control devices according to our preferences. Okay, let's see that you can't wait to disappear quickly. I'll give you ten minutes to try out the functions of these devices." Dr. Su stood up and was about to walk away when he suddenly remembered something, and then turned around and added, "There is a button on your glasses on the left and right. The button on the right is the main control menu of the device. You can reset various buttons to adapt to your respective usage habits. The button on the left, pressed, can be used for internal calls, which is equivalent to team calls. Pressing twice is to ask me questions, or it can be used for internal calls from the union. If you have any questions, you can ask questions now."

Arnold was still busy, and suddenly heard a loud noise, at least a few thousand voices shouting in unison. The huge and chaotic sound made him hear a huge roar in his ears. It was as if he was on the streets of central London and could hear nothing.

After a while, the sound gradually decreased, and he vaguely heard the sounds of other companions in the dormitory from his headphones.

"Arnold. You idiot, control panel, adjust the control panel! Group several of us into a union. Then press twice to block irrelevant people from speaking!" Howard was a familiar person. Everyone here discovered that Arnold was a rookie. Howard was very responsible and took on the role of his game instructor.

In just one or two minutes, thousands of game unions appeared. Perhaps everyone formed small unions based on dormitories. Anyway, this is also familiar with the equipment, not really entering the game, and it doesn’t matter if you form multiple unions.

Arnold worked for a long time before he found what Howard called a union in the control panel and joined.

The other sounds in the headphones quickly disappeared, and only a few people in the same dormitory were talking to each other.

"Howard, I didn't expect you, a kid, to even combine punches!"

"Mom, Howard, are you a boxer? Why are you skilled in fighting?"

"I feel a little awkward with this control controller. It seems to be easier to use without a game controller."

"You idiot! Is this handheld convenient for game controllers? You are not skilled yet, so of course you feel awkward. Look at Howard, you can play tricks after only a minute of getting the controller... Damn, 360-degree whirlwind legs in the air! Damn, Howard, you damn, don't show off in front of me!"

Arnold launched the control panel and suddenly found himself in an Eastern-style hall with a weapon stand next to it. On the innermost wall, there was a plaque with Chinese characters written on it. He couldn't understand it. It was probably a warning or something. Chinese people like to hang banners, calligraphy and paintings in the room the most.

If he could understand Chinese, he would be able to recognize it. The four characters on the plaque were written as "Jingwu Association Hall".

The hall is very large, it is more of a square than a hall.

Thousands of people were playing in the hall, having fun. Apiao astronomy also made him unable to see any falsehood.

The simulated scene is excellent, with three-dimensional effect, as if it is immersive.

Just like when he is in it, the scenery gradually becomes smaller from near to far. Moreover, there is also a setting for vision here. According to the relevant data he filled in when registering, the scenery in the distance will gradually become blurred, completely imitating the distance between the real vision.

The sound of players stamping their feet, the sound of wind brought by their fists and feet, and the shouts of shouting in the hall were gradually fading away and lighter, and very realistic.

Apart from the lack of real physical feelings, everything is no different from the real environment!

It's so real, this may be the limit that can be achieved under the existing technology conditions!

Can we in the United States also build such a real virtual scene?

Arnold felt a little frustrated. A fact that he didn't want to believe was right in front of him: the virtual reality technology of the United States may not be as good as Universal Corporation! He could only comfort himself that the United States could virtually create a scene that was a hundred times more realistic than this. The reason why he did not launch the same virtual reality technology to the market was just that he disdained this, or that it was not too late.

He stood in a complicated heart for a long time and finally discovered a technical defect of Huanyu Company, or his own thinking: everyone here is dressed in the same way, his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and dressed in the same way!

He stood here for a long time, but he could not see Howard and others: Of course, even if they were in front of him, he could not recognize him!

He felt that his vanity was a little satisfied.

At least, Universal is not omnipotent, and they have not done so.

He tried his best to avoid one idea: this was just the first time he was familiar with it, and he had not had time to scan and lock everyone in appearance. Because this was the only place in his heart that if Universal Company had achieved perfection, he was not sure whether he would be so jealous that he would be crazy.

Suddenly, for some reason, the ground scene appeared in his vision. Before he could wake up, he had already fallen to the ground.

Arnold felt dizzy in his head, and the sudden change of scene made him feel a little disgusted and wanted to vomit.

He lifted the virtual eyes and gasped in big breaths. After a while, he was shocked.

Put on your glasses again and enter the demonstration hall. He saw a person with no expression standing in front of him: "Sorry, I didn't expect you to kick so carelessly. You are Arnold, I saw you standing here stupidly, guessing it was you, so he kicked you gently, and as a result, you fell."

Listening to the sound, it's Howard.

Why didn't I feel it when I kicked me?

Arnold fell to the ground, thought for a while, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Universal's technology is just like this. There is no prompt to be attacked, no sense of touch, and the body in the game is like a ghost. This is the virtual reality technology they boast about, and people are dying of laughter!

Arnold's confidence was all back.

What is Universal? It is still our American technology, which is the world's top!

He didn't expect that since Universal Company had even considered the distance, size and clarity and blur, how could he not have thought of a solution to the touch?
Chapter completed!
