Giant of the times - Chapter 546

c537 A sensation at the press conference!

Silicon Valley, Google Inc.

Since Google announced that it is preparing to release “Google Glass”, the global media has focused its attention on this product launch.

At this time, the conference site was crowded.

“I heard that Google Glass uses brainwave technology, which is really curious!”

“Yes, the human virtual world plan mentioned by Chronos Li before will also use brain wave technology!”

“The internal information I heard said that Google Glass is only a preliminary application of brain waves and is completely incomparable with the human virtual world plan. Google Glass seems to use augmented reality technology AR.”

A reporter nodded thoughtfully and then said: “It’s no wonder it’s called Google Glass. Based on my understanding of augmented reality technology (AR), AR needs a carrier for image projection. In other words, AR technology requires It uses a small lens and then sees it through our own eyes, while the human virtual world completely uses brain waves. Close your eyes and feel as if you are in another world!”

“So, brainwave technology is much more difficult than AR technology…”

“Of course, many companies can make AR or VR products, but it is very difficult to develop brain wave products. The threshold for the two is far different! Of course, those who simply use brain wave technology to remotely control airplanes Equipment is not included, because although this thing is difficult, it is nothing. Developing brain wave coding is the most difficult, and genetic technology companies are the most powerful in the world!!! I guess, other companies I can’t even keep up with her!”

“The most complex part of human beings is the brain! As we all know, the human brain is dozens of times more powerful than the most advanced supercomputers in the world. Of course, in terms of calculation speed, compared to supercomputers, the human brain cannot match it. . But in terms of the ability to process complex information, the human brain can simply crush supercomputers! It is said that the development level of the human brain is only about 10%. If it were developed to 100%, how powerful would we humans be!!”

At this time, Edmund Jim, a reporter from the famous academic magazine “Nature” smiled and said: “Haha, the human brain has 86 billion neurons. You can imagine how complex the human brain is, and the threshold for studying brain waves is so high. How high!!!”

Hearing this, people around him nodded, but someone asked curiously: “Well, the elephant’s brain is much larger than that of humans, but humans are far more intelligent than elephants. Do elephants have fewer neurons than humans?”

Edmund Jim shook his head: “In terms of the number of neurons, the number of neurons in the human brain is 86 billion, while elephants have 257 billion neuron cells. But…”

He paused, smiled, and said: “Humans have 16 billion neurons located in the cerebral cortex, which is the largest number in the entire biological world on earth!!! Scientists believe that the cerebral cortex is the center of consciousness, logical reasoning, and abstract thinking. The carrier of ability, so humans have intelligence that far exceeds that of other creatures!”

Everyone suddenly realized: “In other words, the intelligence of living things is not directly related to the number of neurons, but depends more on the number of neurons located in the cerebral cortex!”

Edmund Jim nodded, looked at the stage, and whispered: “The press conference is about to begin!”

After everyone heard this, they stopped talking and set up their cameras to record the live broadcast.

Google CEO Larry Page wore a crisp black suit and walked to the stage radiantly.

“Welcome to attend Google’s product launch event!”

The light shone on Larry Page’s body, and his whole body seemed to shine. As he spoke, he looked towards the audience. Tens of thousands of guests and friends from the media at home and abroad were present, and he couldn’t help but be filled with emotion.

Since its development, Google has gradually transformed from a small Internet search engine company into a giant in the technology industry, and all of this comes from one person – the unparalleled richest man in the world, Chronos Li. Today, he has become the president with the supreme power of the United States! ! !

At this moment, Chronos·Li may be watching this press conference in front of the TV…

Larry Page thought to himself.

“You must have learned something about this conference from the Internet. Yes, that’s right, we will release the world’s first ‘AR+Internet+Brainwave’ epoch-making product. It is the Google Glass that everyone has been waiting for! !!” Larry Page said loudly, and then took out a beautiful glasses case from his trouser pocket, then opened it and put it on his head.

At the same time, a picture appeared on the big screen behind him, with several Google Glass recruitment photos on it.

It’s really something that everyone has been waiting for for a long time. When Google Glass was first unveiled, it shocked the world. The simple and beautiful design was simply breathtaking.

“Google Glass is so cool!!” The younger guests stared straight at the big screen with excitement.

Seeing everyone’s reactions, Larry Page couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

“Google Glass was personally designed by Mr. Chronos Li, the chairman of Google and now the President of the United States. Its extraordinary design makes Google Glass the best art product!”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked!

“Oh, God, our president is indeed a super genius. He has brought another epoch-making product to our world!”

Everyone felt proud and couldn’t help but look forward to Google Glass even more.

Larry Page raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then continued: “Google Glass looks like the picture, weighs only a few dozen grams, has a lens on the right side, and there is a micro display on the lens. screen, Google uses AR technology to project data onto a small screen above the user’s right eye, and the display effect is like a 25-inch high-definition screen 2.4 meters away!”

“The memory of Google Glass is 628M, the operating system is Android 4.0, the CPU is an ARM11 processor developed by ARM, the network connection supports Bluetooth and Wifi – 802.11b/g, the total storage capacity is 16GB, and can be synchronized with Google Cloud. Google Glass has many MyGlass applications, such as taking pictures, video calls, identifying directions, surfing the Internet, email, etc…”

“To use the MyGlass application, we provide two ways. One is a voice call. Users only need to say ‘Hey, Google’ to activate the Google Artificial Intelligence Assistant and then use the MyGlass application. Of course, in this way, users have already I’m already familiar with it when using an iPhone. And the other method I’m going to talk about next is the magical brain wave control method!”

Speaking of this, Larry Page deliberately stopped and observed everyone’s reaction. Seeing everyone’s passionate eyes, Larry Page couldn’t help but laugh.

“Although brainwave-related technology is not yet mature enough, simple applications are still possible. Users can open MyGlass and see all the applications on it by saying ‘Hey, Google’ silently in their minds. For users who purchase Google Glass, we will send Give everyone a brainwave command manual. At this time, you can complete all application operations on MyGlass according to the brainwave command manual! Let me give you an example. If the user wants to take a photo, then he only needs to say in his mind, “Google, I want to Take a photo. Immediately, the camera will open immediately, and a viewfinder will appear on the micro-display. Then silently say “OK to take a photo” in your mind, and you can completely complete the shooting of a photo. If you want to exit taking photos, just Say ‘Google, I want to quit taking pictures’ in your mind, and then you can return to the main interface of MyGlass…”

Larry Page then asked the staff to play a short video, which almost introduced all the main application instructions in the electroencephalogram instruction manual.

Everyone in the audience was already stunned, and even gave them a feeling of disbelief.

“The man in the video didn’t say anything. Is he really using brainwave commands to operate Google Glass?”

“Wow, this is simply amazing! But there are so many brain wave commands~~~”

“…”

After the video clip was played, the audience was already in an uproar.

Larry Page thought to himself that if he had seen it for the first time, he would probably be as shocked as them.

Larry Page coughed twice, signaled everyone to be quiet again, and then said loudly: “I know some of you have doubts about Google Glass and the way brain waves operate, but Google will prove everything with facts!”

Huge brainwave coding still has a long way to go, but the brainwave instructions used on Google Glass are very few, only a few dozen in number. Through repeated reading, recording, comparison, and analysis, Gene Technology Company and Google have made the brain wave instructions on Google Glass very accurate. This is like asking a person to learn dozens of words. Is it possible to learn it in one year, two years, or two years? Even if you can’t learn it in three years?

After the press conference, the world was shocked. It not only set off a craze for AR glasses, but also caused countless people to be full of curiosity and enthusiasm for brain waves.

Netizens came to Google’s official website to post comments.

“Oh God, Google Glass is so much greater than the iPhone!!”

“Gene Technology and Google are cheating~~”

“Uh, am I out? Now there are even black technology products like Google Glass…”

“Holy shit, can brain waves turn into superpowers? You see, when I put on Google Glass, I can give orders to Google Glass through brain waves. If Google Glass can be connected to other electronic products, such as drones and wireless I can indirectly control people, cars, micro-robots, etc., holy shit, the more I think about it, the more excited I get, I just can’t stop!!!”

“Friend upstairs, you are really out. A company has long developed a brain wave device that can control the flight of a drone. However, the brain wave device is very simple and can only control the aircraft to fly up, down, left and right.”

“Yes, I have also seen this news. Members of the project team emphasized that not everyone can easily control helicopter flight through brain waves at the beginning, because most people’s brain waves are not ‘clean’, There are many interference signals inside. Therefore, the operators must undergo certain training. First, they will try to control the movement of the cursor on the computer screen through brain waves to train themselves to issue clear enough brain wave instructions so that the computer can accurately Capture the information and transform it! In addition, the researchers of the project also said that the sensitivity of brain wave operation is still not as sensitive as traditional manual operation…”

“Haha, one simply uses brain waves to control up, down, left, and right, and the other is to develop brain wave coding. The two cannot be compared at all!!! Gene Technology Company has been committed to brain wave research for many years. Although we are now cooperating with Google, we must be using technologies that have long been mature!”

…

Google Glass is very expensive, costing $699 each, but users are rushing to buy it like a tide.

The offline market is booming, and the online sales data are astonishing. On the day Google Glass was released, nearly 4 million units were sold on the three major platforms of Amazon, Alibaba, and eBay alone.

A week later, Google sold nearly 24 million units of Google Glass, causing a global sensation!

Li Zetian couldn’t help but secretly clicked his tongue.

In a previous life, Google Glass failed after it was launched.

But this life was a great success.

Li Zetian thought that the key factor for change should be brain waves…

With the increase in the number of users of Google Glass and the MyGlass application software and brainwave commands, brainwaves will develop rapidly, which will greatly benefit the development of brainwave coding.

In the future, the virtual world is no longer a dream! ! !
