Chapter 703: The Comeback Uncle

Putting the dinner plate on the long table in the cafeteria, Gou Mao skillfully took out his mobile phone and opened the machine home, and then sat on the row of card seats.

Working hard alone on Egret Island, there are no relatives and friends in his hometown, his girlfriend is the flagship product of Digital Tiger, and the last time he dealt with someone other than his colleagues was to visit his unlucky third uncle Gou Li in prison during the Lantern Festival.

All of this has caused Gou Mao's real life to be seriously compressed, giving him a lot of time to spend on the virtual world.

The experience of playing games at work, getting off work, and visiting forums every day has long become a habit that he can't change, even if he is transferred to the online game R&D department that needs to work overtime, he still can't change it. I often take advantage of the short time of lunch and coffee to take out my mobile phone and brush the house, just like now.

"Did you really admit your mistake?" Looking at the content on the screen, Gou Li showed an expression that was indeed the case.

The headline of this news is "Flowers that can be touched, bees show tactile screen black technology", but Gou Mao clearly remembers that the original title and content are not like this. BP version of the editor Wang Shan saw the bee mobile phone model made of fake flowers on the streets of Barcelona, and boldly predicted that the bee intended to create a physical feedback screen similar to 3Dtouch, and swore that it should be an ultrasonic solution, on the grounds that bees have a foundation in this regard.

However, when the time came to the afternoon of local time, Atletico Madrid showed the real-sense screen technology known as "next-generation screen technology" at the special press conference, officially unveiling the previous sale, and the old driver Master Wang inevitably overturned.

Bee is indeed working on a screen technology that can provide haptic effects, but it does not use the current ultrasonic real-sense technology, as he predicted, because this technology has two shortcomings that cannot be solved for the time being: it is too inefficient and dangerous.

It is rumored that a group of curious island men made a special trip to invite a Dcup beauty, let her lie on the shelf in a vacuum on the upper part, and measured that the average downward pressure of a single ball was 88.02 N/m², and then used the same equipment to measure the wind pressure outside the car window at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, and found that the average pressure was 87.87 N/m². They also recorded a video and posted it on the Internet to prove that the legend of "Dcup feels ≈ wind pressure at 60 kilometers per hour" is true.

Although it is unreliable to equate airflow and adipose tissue by relying on pressure as a single parameter, it is true that the higher the wind speed, the pressure on the human hand, and the ultrasonic solution uses sound waves that are inaudible to the human ear to push the air to generate wind pressure to simulate the sense of touch. The sound generator vibrates the air, forming a variable layer of air as thin as microns and as thick as decimeters above the screen, and when the human hand touches the air layer, the sensitive and dense tactile nerves of the hand are stimulated by the air flow and wind pressure to produce a specific sense of touch.

To generate strong enough wind pressure, it is necessary to increase the energy of ultrasound, which will not only bring energy consumption problems, affect the battery life of mobile devices, but also may cause harm to cats, dogs, pets, and even people and other equipment.

Ultrasound, like visible light, is forcibly defined based on human physiological characteristics, the human ear can hear up to 20 KHz (20,000 Hz), and higher frequency sound waves are defined as ultrasound. But around us, dogs can hear 50KHz and cats can hear 65KHz, and their ears also have a "magnified" effect, so they can hear more subtle sounds and are more susceptible to noise interference.

Ultrasonic dog whistle, ultrasonic barking device, ultrasonic dog repellent, the principle is actually the same, the difference is only in the volume and accompanying conditions, the small volume is rewarded is the dog whistle, the volume is medium and does not bark or sound is the barking device, and the volume is super annoying and can only avoid the dog repellent. Ultrasonic humidifiers, ultrasonic mosquito repellents, ultrasonic touch screens and other equipment can also play a similar role to a certain extent.

It was because of the complaints and feedback received from pet owners that the bees removed the ultrasonic mouse from the PT accessories list. Fortunately, the sound generated by the mobile phone fingerprint module is very small and has little impact, otherwise even this one would have to be changed.

In fact, Lao Wang turned over very wrongly, he did guess that the bee should make a touch screen, and the speculation of using a large number of the company's technical foundation is also consistent with the facts, and he made a mistake by only seeing the fingerprint module on the mobile phone, but ignoring the larger screen.

Seemingly influenced by the movable type printing performance at the opening ceremony of the '08 Olympics, the engineers of Bee took a different approach to introduce MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) into the screen, and directly used them to adjust the roughness of the screen to give users a different sense of touch, allowing people to touch shapes and even textures as if they were touching real objects.

To put it simply, the butterfly screen is enlarged and placed outside so that people can touch them, so Wang Shan's supporters feel sorry for him.

MEMS are miniature electromechanical devices manufactured using semiconductor processes, including electric motors, drives, sensors, and more, and are characterized by a very small physical size.

Each pixel on the butterfly screen is a miniature motor, with an area of less than 0.1 square millimeters and a working stroke of only a few hundred nanometers, which moves up and down to adjust the thickness of the air film to affect the effect of film interference, so as to selectively reflect the external ambient light. The tactile screen is just a butterfly screen with a longer stroke (in order to produce a strong enough bumpy touch).

However, things in the world are easier said than done, bees and partners of the siege lion since the introduction of Qualcomm technology, try to mass produce the first generation of butterfly screen has been researching the touch screen based on microelectromechanical system, until now it can only come up with barely usable laboratory products, it will take a while for real mass production into the market.

Although the resolution of the samples they took out could only reach 6~8 centimeters (cmm, hundredths of a millimeter), which was very simple and rough in the eyes of Atletico Madrid, and the tactile sense of various materials simulated was not realistic and natural, the number of visitors to the bee booth surged by 400% after the exhibits were unveiled at MC and provided a trial experience, even the entire exhibition

The number of attendees was also 7% higher than the previous day, although the official version is that the traffic congestion caused by the subway and bus strike has eased.

For most domestic netizens, all this is beyond sight, after all, the ability to travel is not something that can be done by downloading a Ctrip app, and many aspects need to be considered.

So everyone can only let out wave after wave of exclamations of ", can it be like this?", and secretly sad why such a black technology should be placed abroad, Wang Shan was attacked by everyone and sprayed coolly, it just happened that it would be affected by splash damage.

Of course, if his prediction can be fully conformed, it should be all kinds of "divine prophecies" touting and worshipping and kneeling in the comment area at this moment.

Put the mobile phone to his mouth, and leave a text comment of "Hehe, I won't say anything, just quietly watch you pretend to beep and watch you get bricked!", leaving his own footprints and loving care, Gou Mao continued to watch other news with one hand.

As one of the largest Chinese IT media, the home of the machine has long been not simply engaged in the machine, their original and reprinted news covers all aspects, many have nothing to do with IT, most users are like Gou Mao with a variety of jokes to ridicule and arrange their unbusiness, but these cross-industry news are tireless click comments are very positive.

Sure enough, the next piece of news came from the online game circle, Blizzard Dabi's new game "Overwatch" was shut down and maintained, and a group of test players felt that their bodies were hollowed out, and they became pessimistic and misanthropic, just like the withdrawal reaction of some addictive substances, so they issued a toxic "accusation" of this game.

Because the game has not officially opened the national server, most of the editors and netizens who commented on the reprint of the house have not played the game, and they are more just jokes about drug addiction and the like. But Gou Mao knew that although these statements were exaggerated, they were in line with the facts to a certain extent.

Because of them, there are a lot of people in the group who have been poisoned in the buttocks.

To a certain extent, Blizzard's dad can be called the apple of the online game industry, Diablo II set the tone of ARPG online games, and World of Warcraft detonated a wave of "xx world ol" trend and continues to this day.

Therefore, there are many people in the industry who are full of expectations for Blizzard's new game, and the level of enthusiasm is even higher than that of die-hard players, after all, the emergence of every successful game will bring about huge changes in the market.

This is also indispensable to the team of Bee Games, such as Gou Mao's 3E studio, which has recently been studying all aspects of the game, hoping to replicate it elegantly.

Marx said that capital can take all risks for the sake of profits, but as long as there is any possibility, capital will definitely try its best to reduce risks, of course, on the premise of maintaining profits.

As a result, the decision-making of large enterprises is becoming more conservative, and only small and medium-sized enterprises will invest heavily in some risky projects in order to do a big vote, which is similar to the saying "the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous".

And an effective technique to reduce risk is to "let others try it first", and then follow the trend and adapt it yourself, so there are more and more superhero movies in Hollywood, and the trend of IP adaptation in the domestic film and television industry is intensifying. In the game circle, homogenization appeared as early as the last century, and a big copy of the world's games is not just talking.

Of course, not everyone is going to copy it, those who are famous or think they are famous still want to face, naturally they will not do such a thing as high-imitation replica or even pixel-level copy, they usually like to borrow the core idea, and then put on a new shell to create a new game.

However, this change is too big, and carelessness can lead to the loss of core appeal, which in turn leads to the failure of imitation, which in turn makes the big team more cautious. So in the matter of tracking the Overwatch Pioneer Overatch, only the 3E team of newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers and nicknamed "Primary School Group" is doing it.

Their studio name was originally an acronym for "electric, easy, and exciting", but it just hit the "300 million elementary school students" meme, and their original advocacy of simple games earned them the nickname "elementary school group".

This is also where they like O.,This entertainment to FPS can be said to be simple and interesting four words to the limit.,It's very in line with the concept of 3E.,It's really good to imitate as a practice work.。

During this time, the most they did was actively participate in the O beta test, and find a way to collect the things that they can see and can't see, and transplant them to their own products.

Speaking of which, the reason why Blizzard Dad was able to launch O so quickly is that the "Titan" project, which had been secretly developed for many years and was expected to replace World of Warcraft but was canceled, left a rich legacy of materials and experience, and the other is because the "Team Fortress" series of entertainment to FPS has matured quite maturely in Europe and the United States after 20 years of development, and they just need to change it according to their own philosophy.

TeamFortress was originally a modified mod made by players after Quake's Quake engine was announced to be open source, and was later incorporated by Valve and ported to Halflife Halflife, which was developed by V based on the open-source Quake engine.

Later, another famous mod appeared on Half-Life, that is, the famous CounterStrike Counter-Strike, which was also incorporated by V Society.

The two mods of TF and CS follow two completely opposite ideas, the former has nine battlefield classes including sniper, flamethrower, engineer, medic and so on, each with different main and secondary weapons and skills, with more emphasis on entertainment. CS, on the other hand, is the opposite, each person's role is only different in appearance, and the diversity and entertainment of weapons are far less than the former, and more attention is paid to balance and competitiveness.

In the first few years of the new century, CS quickly became popular all over the world, accumulating a large number of player fans, many people only know CS but not half life, let alone Quake, the grandfather and TF, the uncle.

Then, logically, when the wave of online games rose, all kinds of shooting OLs were very similar to CS, in the hope of being able to harvest the FPS player base that the latter had cultivated for many years.

A few years ago, some domestic manufacturers tried to imitate "Team Fortress 2" to launch a domestic online game, the same Q version of the American comic style, the same multi-class design, only there are more unreliable novice operators and undisciplined paid props, and then this game has been half-dead until now, finally ushered in the spring of entertainment FPS.

However, Gou Mao is not optimistic that it can turn over, and if the foundation is not strong, there are all kinds of tosses, basically it can't be saved. Besides, isn't this their "Cosmic Arena", if you can't fight O, it's still okay to bully the old-timers.
