Chapter 723 [Commercialization of a series of application scenarios is imminent]

Under the gaze of the audience, a cylindrical stage rises from the floor of the main stage, and a "artificial electronic skin" is placed in a transparent glass box on the table, which must be marked with some labels and close-ups on the surface to be seen because it is too thin.

Luo Sheng came to the cylindrical platform, he looked at the items inside and said: "If you want people with disabilities to really be able to do something as simple but almost impossible as 'taking an egg out of a bag', this graphene-based 'artificial electronic skin' solves this problem, it can sensitively sense external pressure and make correct signal feedback." ”

This is indeed a lot of people with prosthetic disabilities are very distressed, the tactile system can not extend to the prosthetic body, it seems that the hand is not light or heavy, although Chen Xin's Borche technology prosthetic products have far exceeded the level of industry peers, and the price is nearly 10 times cheaper, is a rare outstanding product in recent years.

There is a lot of research on this issue, but it is still a problem, the product experience is not satisfactory, many people know that Borche Technology is a company invested by Luo Sheng, and this technology will definitely be applied to the prosthetic products of Borche Technology.

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng looked up at the big screen, and everyone also saw the video demonstration footage.

"By attaching this 'artificial electronic skin' to the prosthetic limb, the prosthesis can sense and hold soft objects like a normal human limb, rather than crushing them directly."

In the video demonstration, a disabled person is wearing a prosthetic leg produced by Borche Technology, but the difference is that his prosthetic leg uses this artificial electronic skin.

Not only did he lose his left hand, but he also lost a leg, but at the beginning of the picture, he was playing basketball on the playground with both hands and feet, running, jumping, walking and turning flexibly, moving like a normal person, and not seeing the appearance of a disabled person.

In the subsequent screen switch, he used his left hand prosthesis to hold soft and fragile items such as eggs, and at the same time, the sub-camera also compared the prosthetics of his peers, staging a picture of no harm without comparison.

The researchers and prosthetic carriers in the picture celebrated, and the audience also gave a round of applause.

These pictures all made the people present sigh at the charm of science and technology and praise the progress of technology.

The giant screen on the main stage ended the video screening, and the logo of the Côte d'Azur resurfaced, and Luo Sheng's hearty voice once again spread throughout the audience.

"In addition to prosthetics, this kind of 'artificial electronic skin' actually has many application directions, such as can be used on wearable electronic products, in order to achieve more convenient and accurate health detection, as early as the beginning of this year, our researchers began to apply graphene chemical modification coating to clothing through 3D printing, in order to detect blood sugar in diabetic patients."

A factual video footage was played again on the giant screen of the main stage, and an audience member exclaimed: "Graphene is really a magical material, how wide is the range of applications?" ”

Luo Sheng on the field paced back and forth, and continued: "In view of the fact that the current mainstream stripping methods of graphene are still stuck in a few ways such as micromechanical exfoliation and chemical vapor deposition, the Côte d'Azur laboratory has successfully developed a new stripping technology, which initially has the conditions for commercialization and mass production, but we are not satisfied with this, it is very good, which means that there is still huge room for improvement, and this is also a problem that our research team is currently trying to solve." ”

The biggest problem with graphene materials is that they cannot be mass-produced, which makes the cost of this new material remain high and hinder its commercialization process.

I didn't expect that the Cote d'Azur had already found the technology with initial mass production, and this is still necessary?

At the end, Luo Sheng's voice came again.

"Water is the source of life for our human beings, and although 71% of our planet's surface is covered by water, 99.99% of this water is undrinkable seawater."

"According to incomplete statistics, about 660 million people in the world live in areas without drinking water supply, although many countries in the world are trying to develop desalination filtration systems in coastal areas, but their high costs make it impossible for these technical solutions to truly achieve mass production."

Obviously, everyone heard it, and Luo Sheng began to introduce the next technology.

"After all, the vast majority of people and most countries are not as rich as the local tycoons in the Middle East, and even the local tycoons cannot use the existing desalination system on a large scale to solve all the water problems."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone laughed again and again, and even the richest man in the world said that the local tyrant was super rich, and he was really rich.

When some media reporters from Middle Eastern countries heard his remarks, they immediately pricked up their ears, their country is rich and oily, but it is highly lacking in water resources, and when it goes to the bottom, it cannot produce groundwater, but black crude oil.

After the vignette, Luo Sheng introduced methodically with a smiling face: "Another technical research team at the Côte d'Azur laboratory has recently made a major breakthrough and we will introduce a new cheap and efficient desalination solution, which we hope will be able to change some of the status quo. ”

"The team uses a technology we call 'graphene membrane filtration', and the team's chief technologist, Kane Sachs, is a leading scholar in the field of graphene, who has been with the Côte d'Azur laboratory for seven years and has published more than 200 scientific papers in the field of graphene."

Another big-touch figure works for it, and the Côte d'Azur Lab is really full of talent.

The Côte d'Azur has research institutes all over the world, involving too many frontier fields, and some university students have also found that the most cutting-edge academic research that is difficult to see commercial returns in the medium and long term has been funded by the Côte d'Azur.

North America is slightly better, the Cote d'Azur accepts the most scientists from Europe, and the R&D funding of all countries on the continent is being cut, and the Cote d'Azur now has more R&D investment a year than the entire United Kingdom.

In fact, European countries, whether they are the United Kingdom, France or Germany, do not invest as much in scientific research as the Cote d'Azur companies throughout the year, and only the entire European Union as a whole can hold it down.

The funding of the entire Western academic community has been cut as a whole, and Luo Sheng naturally accepts these talents on a large scale, not only to accept these "scientific research refugees", but also to dig into the wall.

It is no exaggeration to say that in addition to national capital, there is only Luo Sheng in the world to support basic scientific research on a large scale with private capital, and in the past 15 years, he has been working tirelessly and silently, and the early income was not much when the investment was small, and with the gradual increase in income, scientific research investment has also become a positive correlation and continues to increase investment.

Now it's finally starting to pay off.

From 2004 to the present in 2018, even the Cote d'Azur has suffered fourteen or fifteen years of crazy investment to see the results today, and it has not really begun to make money to recover the cost of research and development.

Other companies are not close to fifteen years, and they may not be able to support it in two or three years.

Industry insiders know very well that monopoly high-tech products are indeed profiteering, but the risk is also explosive, if the research and development of graphene projects on the Cote d'Azur fails, the cost of capital, time and sunk costs invested in more than ten years is unimaginable.

On stage, a second cylindrical platform rises from the floor, and the close-up focuses on a piece of film material displayed on the stage.
