Chapter 94: A Time to Witness History (7)

Ahn Yuxi's deep, magnetic voice, in fluent English with a California accent, spoke to the people, he looked at the people who were quietly listening, and shook the iPhone in his hand: "So, I said that the iPhone is not a mobile phone, I call it a mobile device!

Skymap's interface has long been opened, and cartoon-style vector layers and poI layers appear on the screen of your iPhone. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Most people travel with a clear purpose, where they want to go and what they want to do. But the real obstacle is that many times the complex terrain environment can make our purpose unclear, New York, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco...... These cities are so big that you might lose count of how many roads and buildings there are in your life, and we have to have a note on hand to tell the taxi driver where to go, or a map to look up carefully, or standing under a bus stop sign to study how many stops to transfer...... Don't you think it's tiring?"

"But on this, we can make everything easy!" An Yuxi said with a smile and began to operate the iPhone to set the coordinates on the map interface of Skymap, "For example, I want to come here after the meeting...... Voila, the route is out!"

In an instant, the whole began to burst into applause.

The huge video wall next to An Yuxi clearly presents the interface, a dark line automatically extends from the starting point to the end point, and after a few seconds of network access delay, several options pop up next to the route "self-driving", "taxi", "bus"......

No matter which option you choose, you can pick out the plan that best suits your situation, the taxi company's phone number, bus transfer sequence...... What's more!"

Bang Bang Bang!

The applause became louder and louder, and the sound of whistles and discussions constantly hit the air in the venue, and these noises forced An Yuxi to raise his voice, emphasizing again: "What's more important is ......" He unbuttoned his suit and put the iPhone in the inner pocket, at that moment, the lights fell, his smiling face was bright, and he said loudly:

"This device, you can easily put it in your pocket, you no longer need an atlas printed with dense letters, no longer need to bother to memorize routes! Look! Put it in your pocket when you don't need it, take it out when you need it, all you have to do is to move your fingers lightly on a palm-sized device!"

Bang, la, la

An Yuxi held up his iPhone with one hand, the hustle and bustle of applause bombarded his eardrums, and the flashing lights in the dark places of the audience were frequently lit.

waited until the applause was a little weaker, and An Yuxi continued: "Of course, the iPhone is not a large navigator......

People laughed.

“…… As a kind of mobile device that can be integrated into our lives, it can solve far more than this, I believe that everyone here, as well as friends in front of the TV, have encountered the same troubled traffic jam! Interestingly, Skymap has thought of a solution specifically for future iPhone users, what to do? See the button for traffic information here?

He pressed it lightly, quickly. The interface of Skymap was switched to a traffic information interface with only vector layers, and the route map of the city of Los Angeles appeared, and under the swipe of two fingers, the layer was expanded!

Lines representing roads come and go, but the difference is that some lines are green, others red.

"Intuitive interface, voila, green for unblocked, red for clogged...... wow。 It's unfortunate. Busy Nos. 9, 99, 405...... The highway is still congested...... Oh!"

He suddenly screamed softly, and then operated, enlarging a red line before the people in the audience saw it. There was a small icon floating on that enlarged red route.

An Yuxi explained: "This icon represents. Some users uploaded real-time photos of traffic conditions. The icon usually resets every 10 minutes, and it now shows that it hasn't exceeded this time, so let's take a look at ......"

As he spoke, he continued to expand the map and then tapped on the icon.

The next moment, a still responsive photo popped up, and after a few seconds, it began to read little by little, but in a few moments, the photo was displayed on the big screen.

"Wow......"

The people below let out exclamations, and everyone could see that the picture was taken from the top of the window room, the cars lined up on the crowded road like countless dense matchboxes, the high-rise buildings towering, the cityscape that was still busy in the rain came alive, and in the distance, you could even faintly see a car accident in the distance.

An Yuxi put the screen horizontally, showed the enlarged photo for a while, and then said: "Thank you for this user's sharing, let us know the situation of this road, God forbid, I hope the car accident is not serious." ”

Cancel the photo, back to the interface of traffic information, An Yuxi swiped the screen a few more times, so that everyone can see the signs that represent unblocked or congested, for a moment, he pushed his glasses, and said: "The development of Skymap is still in the initial stage, especially the function of traffic information, limited to the narrow source of information, in fact, since its launch, the media has always regarded it as the most failed function of Skymap, but through the demonstration I just made, have you understood anything?"

The venue resounded with people's low discussions, An Yuxi glanced at a few times, and said with a smile: "Does no one understand?"

No one answered, in fact, the moment the picture taken in ten minutes from as far away as Los Angeles was displayed on the screen, everyone's heads were confused.

This is a way of obtaining information that no one has thought of before. A car accident photo is nothing, the whole of America doesn't know how many car accidents happen every day, it's all over the Internet, but the problem is, those photos are mixed with other pictures on the Internet, like a soybean thrown into a soybean pile, of course you can find it, but when you find it, does it still mean anything to you?

No!

It doesn't mean anything other than to remind you that another car accident happened yesterday or half a month ago or a month ago.

But just now, the young Asian on stage excavated its meaning, resetting it every ten minutes, ensuring the timeliness of what the photo represents, it can remind people why there is a traffic jam, and then people can choose whether to wait or change the way according to the situation.

Perhaps, there is a deeper meaning......
