Chapter 63: Hand rubbing
There was no reply for a minute after the message was sent.
Ye Ming even thought that this Baidian fungus master had started to stay up late to work again - the last time she invited her out for dinner, she had been complaining that she was doing the same thing as a cow and a horse.
Just when Ye Ming was about to put down his phone and concentrate on editing today's video, the news came back.
Mogu let out a silent laughing emoji.
"You majored in electronic engineering, and asked me if I could make chips for a cranial nerve...... Why am I so misplaced? β
"But you're right, we can do it in our group, but it may not be the kind of chip you imagined."
A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Ming's mouth.
Of course, he knew that Mogu was not a "traditional" CPU, GPU, microcontroller, etc., nor was it a discrete device such as diodes and transistorsβin fact, it was almost the same when it came to sensors.
What she did over there was an invasive brain electrode, somewhat similar to the technology of Musk's team.
And then...... Just as Ye Ming was about to type, the news from Mogu came again.
"But I'll say okay first, if you ask me to help make a chip or something, I really can't help you, I'm just a little minions in the group......"
Ye Ming was stunned and smiled.
However, in the case of the second year of research, it is true that you can only do some trivial work in a large group.
He thought about it for a while, and quickly said: "Senior sister is modest, it's like this, I want to make an integrated electrode here......"
"It turned out to be an integrated motor! You scare me! Is it convenient for you to open the voice over there? I'm slow typing. β
Ye Ming looked at the news that popped up quickly, and was speechless for a long time.
Is this hand speed still slow?
But he immediately replied "yes".
Tonight, the roommates have all gone out, including Peng Xiaofei, who has not come back now, and I don't know if he fell drunk under the pomegranate skirt of the alumni sister.
After connecting the voice, Mo Gu first smiled heartily: "Good guy, I thought you asked me if I could rub the CPU, and I thought that this shouldn't be the job I should do in my profession." β
Ye Ming coughed embarrassedly: "It's that I didn't make it clear, in fact, it's the integrated electrode." β
"If you say this, then I have the right to speak, we are engaged in cranial nerves, and we deal with electrodes every day."
"That's why I asked Sister Mogu." Ye Ming said with a smile: "My idea is this, on a 1 by 1.5 cm piece of silicone or other flexible materials, as many EEG induction electrodes as possible. β
"It means that N multiple BIS (EEG sensors) are integrated into the size of a single piece, right?"
"Uh...... Sort of, but it's not a one-time thing. β
"What about you...... I'm afraid the difficulty is a bit big, the EEG sensor is very expensive, not to mention, in addition to the disposable BIS patch this kind of consumables, the customized specifications of the integrated electrode is not a supporting process, my boss here is also pulled bioengineering and materials and computer science to make a soybean-sized integrated electrode, which is only more than 50 components. β
"Uh...... Is it in the human brain? β
"How dare you, put it in the guinea pig's head."
"......" Hearing Mo Gu say this, Ye Ming's heart suddenly cooled by half.
He also thought that Mogu was easier to make, and if the materials were rich, he would see if he could spend some money and let Mogu find a way to help him get one......
Even if you can't get a high degree of integration, it's good to be able to get a hundred!
"Even if you only get the electrodes, you can't get the main control chip?"
"If you only get the electrodes...... It shouldn't be that hard, but what are you doing with it if you don't have a control chip? Don't fool me, my cranial nerves are the same as your circuits - that's what you said the other day, saying that electricity always has a place, just like nerves always connect to the brain. β
Ye Ming: "...... Control the chip I figured it out. β
"Then I'll help you ask. But Ye Ming, I didn't promise you to do it for you. I'll just help you ask what materials you want, where you can buy them, and at most ask about the process or something...... And I also estimate that this is not cheap. β
"Okay, it's okay! Trouble Senior Sister Mo, when are you free, little brother will invite you to dinner! β
"No problem, I heard Xiao Qi say that you won the national championship, you should really treat yourself."
β¦β¦
After hanging up the call, Ye Ming let out a long breath.
Frankly speaking, this kind of integrated electrode, regardless of the process or complexity, is definitely not comparable to semiconductor chips, even if silver is used as a material for reliability.
But because there is no demand, there is no market, so there is no scale and industrial chain.
So it's all up to the labs to rub by hand.
After sighing for a while, he began to edit the video.
This time, because there is not much technology and the relevant code cannot be open sourced, there is not much content that can be displayed, at most it is to perform a robotic arm to complete a variety of gestures synchronously under the control of the brain computer.
When Ye Ming edited the video to the end, the simulated hand gripper of the robotic arm gave a thumbs up and liked it, and he directly clicked on the video to upload it.
Then, he heard Peng Xiaofei's slightly drunken shouting outside the door.
Yes, it seems that this guy still kept his sanity in front of the senior sister.
β¦β¦
For the next few days, Ye Ming stayed in the dormitory.
Before the library closed, he borrowed several physics majors.
These days, while reading books and self-studying, he also communicates with Ita in his mind - that's right, after his long-term unremitting fragmented indoctrination, and when he lets Ita think for himself when he has nothing to do, Ita has changed from unilaterally accepting his knowledge indoctrination to discussing with Ye Ming.
The kind that progresses together.
"I think you should use the electrode interface."
After waiting for Ye Ming for ten minutes, Ita's voice sounded in his mind.
"What is it for?"
"I read books, pure text information is much faster than picture information, you don't have to worry about the last time you transferred pictures."
Ye Ming was immediately happy when he heard it: "You mean that I am slow to study, don't you?" β
Ita was silent for a long time, and it seemed that she could not grasp the essence of "lying" in the end, and it was a long time before she replied.
"Yes, but I don't want to bother you."
"Don't worry, this level of distress is fine."
Ye Ming smiled and saw the phone screen light up, showing a new WeChat message.
After clicking on it, it is Mogu's.
"You said you invited me to dinner, didn't you bring Xiao Qi?"
The little seven in her mouth is naturally lacquer and ink.
Ye Ming patted his head.
He really forgot about it......
"Of course! I still owe her a few meals, Sister Mogu, did you ask for the news? β
"Asked, don't you mind if I bring one more person over for dinner?"
Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that the person brought here was probably the big guy in her team who was responsible for hand-rubbing the integrated electrodes.
