Chapter 32: This is how video was born
"Here comes the grapes!"
Peng Xiaofei didn't arrive, and the voice arrived first.
Then he returned to the lab empty-handed. In Ye Ming's surprised eyes, he took out a few grapes from his pocket.
"Now the price is so expensive that all the grapes are sold?"
"Hehe, it's not for food anyway, so I'll go to the cafeteria and ask for a few."
"I don't see it, it's a little expert at saving money." Ye Ming smiled and handed him the phone, and he went to the toolbox next to him to rummage through it for a while, and pulled out an aluminum strip the length of a little thumb.
"Be careful not to shoot me, and help me think of lines."
"I was thinking about it on the way." Peng Xiaofei turned on the camera on his mobile phone and aimed at the top of the robotic arm.
Under the mobile phone camera, Ye Ming changed the gripper, then fixed the aluminum strip, and then fixed the cutter head on the base.
Peng Xiaofei on the side cleared his throat: "I want to stitch the grapes, as a boy, what should I do if I don't have a needle?" It's okay, let's take our own car. In addition to fine movements, the robotic arm can also cooperate with the motor in the front joint to complete the operation of various machine tools. ”
"For example, now I'm going to use an aluminum strip to make a needle for sewing grapes."
Ye Ming gave him a thumbs up: "Well deserved." ”
"A must."
As Ye Ming aligned the robotic arm with the cutter head, Peng Xiaofei also said again: "We know that the melting point of aluminum is not high, and the hardness is not large, but there is no way, our motor torque is too small, and we can only sharpen it-isn't it?" ”
Ye Ming laughed beside him: "Yes." ”
In the midst of the singing and harmony of the two people, Ye Ming activated the robotic arm.
The gripper of the robotic arm begins to rotate rapidly, slowly reaching towards the cutter head.
"We saw that aluminum chips were flying and a needle with a diameter of about 0.5 millimeters was being rapidly prototyped...... it, slow down, it's going to break. ”
I have to say that two people do work much faster than one person.
And Peng Xiaofei, as the operator of the RC team, is not an ordinary stable, and the video effect is the same as that of the stabilizer.
"Another advantage of aluminum needles is that they are easy to perforate, so pay attention to them."
Peng Xiaofei held his mobile phone and aimed at the aluminum needle at the end of the robotic arm: "It's time to reflect the visual positioning accuracy of the robotic arm." ”
With his voice, Ye Ming also cautiously clicked the mouse.
The robotic arm inserts a steel needle precisely into the tail of the aluminum needle.
"Here's the stringing, and it's another moment of miracle."
"Below is the moment to witness the miracle."
"Damn, why did you oversew it?"
"The force feedback is too small, I'll adjust the ......"
Time passed minute by minute.
By the time the grapes are sewn up, it's already evening.
In the laboratory, in addition to Peng Xiaofei, there are two more Li Dongsheng and Tao Zheng.
The two also heard Peng Xiaofei say that Ye Ming was filming a video, and rushed over to see the excitement.
"Okay, so what we see next is the ultimate challenge. 3D stereoscopic engraving! ”
With Peng Xiaofei's voice, the mechanical arm that had been replaced with a three-dimensional knife slowly stretched out to the rotating base in front.
Sawdust flying.
Right under everyone's noses, the prototype of a robot cat Tinker Bell slowly emerged.
……
The hum of the motor slowly faded away.
This was followed by applause from Li Dongsheng and Tao Zheng.
"Awesome." Li Dongsheng stared at the mechanical arm with a look of envy: "Whoever has such a family at home, the figure will not worry." ”
Tao Zheng also thought so: "Ye Ming, according to me, you should use it to participate in Dachuang or Internet +, maybe some investors will take a fancy to it, and then invest in you to start a business and become the boss." ”
Peng Xiaofei disagreed: "Forget it, Ye Ming's is all open source." Besides, if you really want to commercialize, I think it still can't compare to those manufacturers who specialize in high-end robotic arms. ”
"Well, it really can't be compared." Ye Ming was also very calm: "This was originally used to practice hands, you can play with some tricks, but it is still a little short to use it as a tool." ”
Li Dongsheng and Tao Zheng smiled at the same time.
Think about it, people have this technology, isn't it easy to find a big factory in the industry with this robotic arm? Why do you want to start a business, it's not the good times of the past few years.
Subsequently, several people gathered together to watch Ye Ming's video.
- They were a little curious about how the video with two million views was born.
But after seeing it, they were disappointed.
Ye Ming uses the most ordinary video editing software, first selects the highlights, and then puts them together very casually - the kind that doesn't even have a transition effect.
When the videos are merged, he separates the tracks and writes the lines according to the length of the video.
It's just that many of the lines this time came from Peng Xiaofei's impromptu performance at the scene.
Finally, he used AI voice to convert the lines into audio files, which were then merged into the video.
And when all this was done, the time came to ten o'clock.
When they saw the prompt that the upload was completed, everyone was dumbfounded.
"That's it?"
"Or else?"
"I heard that when people make a video, they have to be creative, do this and that, and have to build a studio...... And the cycle is still one P. Li Dongsheng's face was full of emotion: "It's good for you, you can do it in one day." ”
Peng Xiaofei laughed: "This is the power of technology. ”
……
……
The sixth floor of the Science and Technology Museum.
RM Preparation Hall.
The RM Mecha Master team is preparing for the tournament intensely.
At the end of last month, they won the first round of qualifying for the collegiate league and will continue to compete in the cup after a two-month break.
It stands to reason that there is no need for them to stay up all night so much.
But...... They had to boil.
Because they changed the machine vision algorithm.
A month and a half ago, they began to "work hard" after being "bloodbathed" by the RC team, which is embodied in finding excellent open-source algorithms all over the world.
For example, the machine vision of that trumpet brother is also one of their goals.
People, always have to be aware of the gap to know the effort. From this point of view, they were bloodied by non-opponents in RC than by other opponents in the semifinals of the final.
Cao Junwen and Gao He, the team's algorithm leader, were sitting cross-legged on the edge of the field.
Gao He intently checked the code, thinking about how to adjust the ginseng.
And Cao Junwen swiped his phone a little boredly.
Suddenly, he was slightly startled. Then he shouted.
", Brother Trumpet has been updated!"
The teammates around the field who were practicing control looked up blankly.
"Brother Trumpet! Tick tock, tick tock! Cao Junwen said loudly: "Engage in the mechanical arm!" ”
"What's new? Are you a fan of his? One of the team members responsible for controlling the robot asked disapprups.
"Grass, nonsense! You don't know how strong this B is! And we use his algorithm! ”
Cao Junwen suppressed his excitement and took a deep breath.
I started watching the video.
Ten minutes later, the video was watched.
Gao He, a big hand in algorithms, directly opened the GitHub account page of Brother Trumpet.
- Brother Trumpet said that he had updated the algorithm.
