Footage of the battle was preserved.

And, on the second day after the end of the test, it was also played back in the form of virtual reality to Minister Qin, who came to the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study for observation.

Only this time, everyone, including Li Gaoliang and the nine soldiers, became NPCs.

At the same time, Lu Zhou standing in the cabin of the ship also became two - one was an NPC, that is, the one standing in the bridge at the time, and the other was a spectator who was a transparent person like Minister Qin.

End of the lecture.

When Li Gaoliang shouted the "go", Lu Zhou took Minister Qin to the command cabin of the starship bridge, where he tracked the entire process of the battle through the only operational observation equipment.

Let's be honest.

The process of fire with insects is quite tragic.

Even though Lu Zhou had already seen it once, he still couldn't help but mourn for half a second for Comrade Li Gaoliang, who "sacrificed heroically".

When he saw the sharp claws tearing through the armor of the Marine Corps like tearing paper, Minister Qin's eyebrows twitched, and after being silent for a long time, he couldn't help but ask.

"I was so come...... Doesn't it hurt? ”

It's not the same as the last time I experienced this device.

At this moment, he could even feel the warm air blowing from the gas exchange at the top.

Everything here was so real, even so real that he could barely tell it.

When he saw that tragic picture, even though he was hundreds of kilometers away in the virtual world, his back couldn't help but feel a chill, and his fists couldn't help but clench.

"Generally, no."

Standing next to the holographic console, Lu Zhou stretched out his hand and dotted a few times in the air, and while looking at the space around him that was scattered like fragments, he explained casually in a calm tone.

"You can recall the last time you had a dream, and there is a limit to how much stimulation the nervous system can endure in a dream. Whether it's sensations such as pain, temperature, or holding urine, when these stimuli reach the point where they trigger the protective mechanisms of the nervous system, you will not feel any sensation and will wake up directly from the dream. ”

"In terms of formation mechanism, this set of virtual reality equipment is something similar to dream guidance, if it is subjected to pain or other perceptions in it, so that the fluctuation of brain waves exceeds the synchronization range of the neural modem, whether it is the brain or the terminal, they will lose their connection to each other."

Hearing this, Minister Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the end of the replay of the battle footage.

After getting out of the virtual reality device, Minister Qin took off his helmet and sat up from the device.

"I've seen all the positive side of this technology," staring at the helmet in his hand for a long time, he looked up at Lu Zhou, and asked in a serious tone, "Actually, it shouldn't be perfect yet." ”

"Of course."

If it were someone else, he would probably have brushed this question aside, but Lu Zhou was not interested in concealing these trivial things, so he just nodded casually and admitted it lightly.

"As a matter of fact, I only talked to Comrade Li Gaoliang about this issue yesterday. This training program, compiled based on the virtual reality system, can be used to simulate strategy, but it cannot completely replace live-fire training. Things like muscle memory and battlefield intuition can't be done in the virtual world. ”

Minister Qin had a thoughtful expression on his face and nodded.

"I can probably see what you mean."

As long as man himself still plays the leading role in war, and the obligation to kill and protect has not been completely replaced by machines, the limitations of this set of devices will certainly exist.

However, even so, the application prospects it has shown in the field of defense are quite fascinating.

Suppose an embassy outside of China is hijacked, all they need is a map, an architectural drawing, limited intelligence, or even a model of the site that has been documented in advance, to conduct a sufficient number of tactical simulations before the rescue operation begins.

In this way, whether it is the rescued people or the orbital airborne troops who go to the rescue, the survival rate will be greatly improved.

After a pause, Lu Zhou continued.

“…… In addition to the limitations of use, the second is that the technology itself has relatively high requirements for computer hardware. It may be difficult for ordinary personal computers to handle this level of data, and at least 'server-level' or even 'supercomputing-grade' hardware must be used to ensure the stable operation of virtual reality systems. ”

"However, although there is a problem of too large a lot of computation, I believe that with the further optimization of the entire operating system, it is a matter of time before this problem is solved."

"What's more, even if this problem can't be solved in the end, in fact, it won't have a big impact on the promotion of this technology. Cloud computing is also one of the major trends in the future development of the Internet, and after the promotion of 5G is completed, we can completely integrate virtual reality networks into a part of the big 5G strategy. The computation is left to a central server, and the helmet only serves as a terminal for signal reception. ”

After listening to what Lu Zhou said, Minister Qin took a deep breath and said in a serious tone.

“…… I have to thank you for so many. ”

"Thank you so much," Lu Zhou said casually with a faint smile, "As long as it is used for peaceful purposes, it is the greatest thank you to the person who invented it." ”

Minister Qin nodded solemnly and promised.

"On that note, I can assure you."

……

After chatting with Lu Zhou about the possible application direction of virtual reality systems in the field of national defense, Minister Qin left here to catch the plane back to Beijing.

Coincidentally, Director Li of the Bureau of Science and Industry also came here today, looked at Lu Zhou, who sent Minister Qin outside and turned back, put down the teacup with a smile and asked.

"Finished talking?"

"After talking," walked over to the sofa and sat down, Lu Zhou said casually, "The equipment department plans to order a batch, and I hope that our side can cooperate with them to complete the compilation of the training program-"

Director Li hurriedly said, "You don't have to tell me this. ”

Lu Zhou smiled: "It's not a secret...... Okay, maybe a little bit secretive, but you should have a right to know. ”

Director Li coughed dryly and said, "It's all thanks to me...... I think it's better for you not to guess. ”

"Well, I was abrupt."

Director Li diverted the topic and continued to ask: "Speaking of which, how is the development of your virtual reality technology and the civilian field going?" ”

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said: "The compilation of the virtual reality system has been completed, whether it is military or civilian, it is theoretically almost the same, but I haven't thought about the time to develop and promote this technology yet." ”

There is no doubt that once virtual reality technology can develop to the extent that it can seamlessly connect with reality, the impact on the modern Internet system will be subversive.

It will not only change people's understanding of the Internet, but will also completely change the interface of people entering the network and the way they experience the Internet.

Disruptive technologies are bound to have a disruptive impact.

In fact, Lu Zhou is not very sure whether this technology is ready to deal with all this shock and resistance.

Nodding thoughtfully, Director Li drank tea and did not speak for a while.

But just when Lu Zhou thought that he had already understood everything he wanted to know, he suddenly spoke.

"On the previous question."

Lu Zhou: "Which one?" ”

"The matter of promoting this technology to the civilian field, in fact, we had a meeting before coming here."

Speaking of this, Director Li paused, looked at Lu Zhou, who was in thought, and vaguely hinted, "Our suggestion is that in addition to strengthening supervision in some areas, in general, this technology still has greater positive value." The timing and technology are almost ripe, and you don't necessarily have to wait until the time is foolproof to come out. ”

"It's a shame to miss the opportunity and let someone else take the lead!"
