Chapter 549: A Sensation at the Press Conference!
Silicon Valley, Google Inc.
Since Google announced that it is ready to release "Google Glass", the global media has focused on this product launch.
At this time, the press conference was crowded.
"It's really curious to hear that Google Glass uses brainwave technology!"
"yes, Chronos· The human virtual world project mentioned by Li before will also use brainwave technology!"
"I found out inside that Google Glass is only a preliminary application of brain waves, and it is completely incomparable with the human virtual world project, and Google Glass seems to use augmented reality technology AR. ”
A reporter nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "No wonder it's called Google Glass, with my understanding of augmented reality technology (AR), AR needs an image projection carrier, that is to say, AR technology needs to use a small lens, and then see through our own eyes, while the human virtual world is completely using brain waves, close your eyes, as if you are in another world!"
"In this way, 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 brainwave products, and the threshold between the two is much different! Of course, those devices that simply use brainwave technology to remotely control airplanes are not included, because although this thing is also difficult, it is nothing. The development of brainwave coding is the most difficult, and there are the most powerful gene technology companies in the world!! I estimate that other companies can't catch up with her!"
"The most complex part of the human race is the brain! As we all know, the human brain is dozens of times more powerful than the world's most advanced supercomputer. Of course, in terms of computing speed, the human brain is unmatched by supercomputers. However, in terms of the ability to process complex information, the human brain can simply crush supercomputers! It is said that the human brain is actually only about 10% developed, and if it is developed to 100%, then how powerful we humans are!!"
At this time, Edmund Jim, a reporter from the famous academic journal "Nature", smiled: "Hehe, the human brain has 860 neurons, you can imagine how complex the human brain is, and how high the threshold for studying brain waves is!!"
Hearing this, the people around nodded their heads, but someone asked curiously: "Well, elephants' brains are much larger than humans, but human intelligence is far greater than that of elephants, is it possible that 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, and elephants have 257 billion neuronal cells. But ......"
He paused, smiled, and said: "Human beings have 16 billion neurons located in the cerebral cortex, which is the largest number of biological beings on the entire earth!! scientists believe that the cerebral cortex is the carrier of consciousness and logical reasoning and abstract thinking, so human beings have intelligence far beyond other creatures!"
Everyone suddenly realized: "In other words, the intelligence of living beings is not directly related to the number of neurons, but more depends 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 start!"
When everyone heard this, they stopped talking, set up their cameras, and recorded live.
Google CEO Larry Page walked onto the stage in a crisp black suit.
"Welcome to Google's product launch!"
The light hit Larry Page's body, and the whole person seemed to shine brightly. As he spoke, he looked down at the audience, and tens of thousands of guests and media friends at home and abroad were present, which made him sigh.
Google has gradually transformed from a small Internet search engine company to a giant in the technology industry, and all of this originated from one person - the world's richest man, Chronos· Li。 Today, he is the president of the United States!!
At this moment, Chronos· Li might be watching the event in front of the TV......
Larry Page said to himself.
"I think you have already learned some of the content of 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 long-awaited Google Glass !!" Larry Page said loudly, then took out a beautiful glasses case from his trouser pocket, and then opened it, wearing it on his head.
At the same time, a picture appeared on the large screen behind him, on which were several Google Glass recruitments.
When Google Glass debuted, it shocked the world, and the simple and beautiful design was simply breathtaking.
"Google Glass is so cool!!" The younger guests stared straight at the big screen with their eyes full of excitement.
Larry Page couldn't help but rise slightly when he saw everyone's reaction.
"Google Glass is the chairman of Google Inc., and now the president of the United States, Chronos. Mr. Li personally designed the Google Glass with its extraordinary design to make it the finest work of art!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked!
"Oh God, our president is a super genius, and he has brought an 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, it weighs only a few tens of grams, it has a lens on the right side, and there is a micro display on the lens, 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!"
"Google Glass has 628M memory, the operating system is Android 4.0 version, the CPU is an ARM11 processor developed by ARM company, the network connection supports Bluetooth and ifi - 802.11b/g, the total storage capacity is 16GB, and it can be synchronized with Google Cloud. Google Glass has many MyGlass applications, such as taking photos, video calls, orienting, surfing, email, etc.......
"We offer two ways to use the MyGlass app. One is a voice call, where users can simply say 'Hey, Google' to activate the Google AI assistant and use the MyGlass app. Of course, this method is already familiar to users when using iPhones. And the other way I'm going to talk about it is the magic of brainwave control!"
Speaking of this, Larry Page deliberately stopped, observed everyone's reactions, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw everyone's hot eyes.
"Although the brainwave-related technology is not mature enough, simple applications are still possible. The user silently says 'Hey, Google' in their head and opens MyGlass and sees all the apps on it. For example, if the user wants to take a picture, then just say 'Google, I want to take a picture' in his mind, and then the camera will turn on immediately, and a frame will appear in the micro display, and then silently say 'OK to take a picture' in your mind, and you can complete the shooting of a photo. If you want to quit taking photos, just say 'Google, I want to quit taking photos' in your mind, and then you can go back to the main screen of MyGlass......"
Larry Page then asked the staff to show a short video clip, which almost introduced the main application instructions in the radio and brain wave instruction manual.
Everyone in the audience was already stunned, and even made them feel incredulous.
"The guy on the video didn't say anything, is he really using brainwave commands to operate Google Glass?"
"Wow, this is amazing!However, there are so many brainwave commands~~~"
“……”
After the video clip was played, the audience was already in an uproar.
Larry Page thought to himself that if it was the first time he had seen it, he would probably be no less shocked than they were.
Larry Page coughed twice, motioned for everyone to be quiet again, and then said loudly, "I know some of you have doubts about how Google Glass and brainwaves work, but Google will prove everything with facts!"
There is still a long way to go in the huge brainwave coding, but the brainwave instructions used in Google Glass are very few, and the number is only a few dozen. Through repeated reading, recording, comparison, and analysis, the brainwave instructions on Google Glass have been very accurate, which is like letting a person learn dozens of words, can't he learn it for a year, two years, or even three years?
After the end of Google Glass, the world was shocked, and then not only set off a frenzy of AR glasses, but also caused more people to be filled with infinite curiosity and enthusiasm for brainwaves.
Netizens have come to Google's official website to post comments.
"Oh God, Google Glass is even greater than the iPhone!!"
"Gene technology company and Google company are hanging~~"
"Uh, am I out? Now I even have a black technology product like Google Glass......"
", can brain waves become 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, unmanned vehicles, micro robots, etc., I can indirectly control these things,, the more I think about it, the more excited I become, I can't stop!!"
"Upstairs netizens, you are really out, a company has long developed a brainwave device that can control the flight of drones, but the brainwave equipment is very simple, and it can only control the aircraft to fly up and down, left and right. ”
"Yes, I've seen the news as well, and the project team members emphasized that not everyone can easily control a helicopter flight with brain waves in the first place, because most people's brain waves are not 'clean' and there are a lot of interfering signals in them. Therefore, the operators must go through a certain amount of training, first they will try to control the movement of the cursor in the computer screen through brain waves, so as to exercise themselves to be able to send out 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 good as that of traditional manual operation......
"Hehe, one is simply using brain waves to control up and down, left and right, and the other is to develop brain wave coding, the two are completely incomparable, okay!! gene technology company has been committed to the research of brain waves for many years, and now although it is cooperating with Google, it must be a mature technology!"
……
Google Glass is very expensive, $699 a piece, but users who snapped up it, like a tide of use.
On the day of the launch of Google Glass, nearly 4 million units were sold on the three major platforms of Amazon, Alibaba, and eBay.
Within a week, Google sold nearly 24 million Google Glasses, making a global sensation!
Li Zetian didn't feel it, and he secretly smacked his tongue.
In the previous life, after the launch of Google Glass, it failed.
But in this life, it was a great success.
Li Zetian thought to himself that the key factor for change should be brain waves......
With the increase of Google Glass users, 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 not a dream!!
