Chapter Ninety-Six: Pip-Boy
Sanders prepared the materials and got into the car.
In the car, there were already three people. It's just that the people in this car are not members of the company, nor are they bodyguards of the umbrella.
They are the CIA.
This time, Sanders will also go to the Pentagon to present a report on the "multifunctional personal computer for individual combat."
Of course, it also has a simple name - Pip-Boy 1000.
And this name was chosen by Catherine.
In fact, most of the content of the report in Sanders' hand was also completed by Catherine, and what Sanders wants to do is to win the trust of the Pentagon.
In fact, the Pentagon's money is easy to cheat. For example, in the future Lockheed Martin's RQ-170 drone. R&D spending was $60 billion at the time of Catherine's crossing, and it's growing.
$60 billion in the 21st century, what is the concept? You can finish 2 Manhattan projects from scratch!
As a supplier to the glorious Pentagon, if you say that you have not cheated or hacked the Pentagon's money, you are embarrassed to participate in the Pentagon's bidding.
Isn't that what the saying goes?
An arms dealer who does not cheat his own country is not a good arms dealer.
This is also a true portrayal of being a supplier to the Pentagon.
Sanders does not intend to, and does not dare to, pit the Pentagon.
All he had to do now was try to squeeze a little bit of the Pentagon's budget for companies β that's a lot, and Sanders was satisfied.
Before entering the Pentagon, Sanders was brought to a metal detector, then scanned all over his body, and after determining that Sanders could not have carried any "weapons of mass destruction," he was placed inside.
Sanders was ushered to the door of the conference room, his equipment and materials had been organized, and the CIA had prepared a slide projector for him.
It was his second time coming, but he was still a little nervous.
He took a deep breath, then pushed the door open and walked inside.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen, and I am glad to meet you again."
Then, Sanders got to the point.
He turned on the slide projector, and a picture appeared on the white wall.
This picture shows the appearance of an American soldier, but compared to the current soldier, this strange thing is wearing a lot of things.
"This is our company...... To be precise, this should be the conceptual combat design of the future soldier that Intel and the Umbrella have worked with each other to build together. β
Sanders began to introduce.
"In our conception, the soldier of the future will have tricolor camouflage uniforms, helmets, windscreens, tactical vests, bulletproof vests, and so on, with a total weight of 40 to 70 pounds."
"But what does this have to do with your company's products? What we wanted to know was the impact that personal computers might have on the war. β
Sanders nodded.
In fact, the Pentagon has been studying this for a long time, otherwise, it would not be so interested in the beep boy.
Apple's efforts in computer miniaturization are obviously ahead of other manufacturers, and it is precisely because of this that they are valued by the Pentagon. After the emergence of the futuristic concept equipment of the Pip-Boy, I was even more interested in it.
Catherine knew it was a trend.
AFTER ALL, EVEN IN THE FUTURE, AMERICAN GIs will have iPads as regular equipment - although only in some troops, but this technology similar to the Pip-Boy is indeed some kind of foresight for the future. The Pentagon noted this, and it is understandable.
"Yes. The soldiers of the future will certainly be completely different in the modern age, with the increasing advancement of technology. They're going to have more powerβ"
Then, Sanders changed the image, and in the picture, an American GI lurking in the jungle appeared.
"Soldiers need to adapt to all kinds of operations. And our Pip-Boy can help them better adapt to their surroundings. β
"According to our conceptual design, the Pip-Boy will have a new type of portable radar capable of scanning and recording the surrounding numbers to form a perfect topographic map. In this way, we can get enough information even in places that are inaccessible to certain aircraft. And its personal radar also has a good role in determining targets. It can communicate remotely, change combat objectives and combat missions at any time on the battlefield, and soldiers are like face-to-face communication. Even at night, the personal identification device of the beep boy can easily distinguish friend from foe. At the same time, the Pip-Boy also has a physical condition monitoring device, this device, will monitor the physical condition of the soldiers at any time and keep them in the best condition. β,
They nodded, and Sanders' pie sounded good.
"What about energy? What should I do if I suddenly lose power? β
Someone else asked.
"That's also a problem that we need to address. Although our company has no research on this aspect, we believe that high-performance lithium batteries will become the trend of the future. Lithium batteries don't have a battery effect, they take a long time, and more importantly they are lightweight. A lithium battery the size of our palm can support the whole machine for several days, and if you wear a battery pack, you can use it for a month without turning off during continuous marching. The Pip-Boy's battery pack can be placed in a tactical backpack and is easy to carry. β
"But in the movie, the beep boy doesn't have to worry about electricity at all."
"That's right, because in the future of cinema, we're thinking of miniaturized nuclear devices, miniaturized nuclear batteries β that's the future."
Then, Sanders started to introduce again.
"The beep boy is also an identification device, which can record the situation and location of the soldiers on the battlefield, so that it is easy to judge whether the soldiers are fighting, or hiding behind the team timidly, and the machine will not lie. And the Pip-Boy will take the encryption settings, and the password can be changed at any time, so that even if it is obtained by the enemy, it is just a brick, and it has no effect at all...... Oh, and it can be used to smash people. β
Sanders finally said a humorous sentence, but the person opposite couldn't help laughing.
"At present, we at Intel are working on a new type of CPU. The CPU, which is the heart of the whole Pip-Boy. As for radar, body detection equipment, etc., although our company has this concept, we are not a company that is researching in this area, but in our own part, I believe that the plan of the beep boy can be done in 10 to 20 years...... If there were enough funds and researchers, the time would have been raised earlier. β
Sanders said it can be done, but in 10 years...... This is indeed a pie painting.
But listening to the discussion on the other side, Sanders has a bottom.
Although in the end, they still didn't make a judgment on the Pip-Boy, but they did seem to be tempted.
β¦β¦
One big and one small and the Amazonian female warriors have all been brought up, and I can only say that you have gone beyond the realm of ferocity......
