I Can View Character Attributes - Chapter 385
The latest website: “Okay, the cobweb weavers have come to an end for the time being, and they will be responsible for writing web weaving modules and program optimization in the follow-up.”
After acting as an intermediary to let both parties get acquainted with each other, Xia Xu spoke out to attract everyone’s attention and said, “Next, I will announce our future research and development plans. Of course, those who have different ideas and opinions can also put forward them.”
Zhou Ji and Walker naturally have no opinion on this. After all, they were organized because of Xia Xu, and all the funds for the entire research group were provided by Xia Xu.
“Everyone here is a top talent in mechanical engineering and electronic information, so it’s not a matter of small projects. If we want to develop them, we need to develop some challenging ones.”
Xia Xu smiled slightly and said after a moment of deliberation: “So, our main goal is – exoskeleton armor!”
“Wow! This is good, this is interesting.”
“Haha, Brother Xu still has an appetite for me.”
“Hey, I know Brother Xu, you won’t let us down.”
Hearing Xia Xu’s announcement, Zhou Jiwoke, Zhang Meng, Lu Dong and the others cheered excitedly.
Clearly, they were very pleased with the result.
Weapons and vehicles, this is a man’s romance, and the sci-fi concept of exoskeleton armor is a collection of the two. No teenager can resist its charm, and men are teenagers until they die.
When Xia Xu just said that he was going to announce the future research and development plan, they actually had a little doubt and apprehension.
After such a long time, they are no longer ignorant of Xia Xu’s identity, they naturally know that he is the boss of Xinghai Group, and they also know that he has invested a lot of research and development outside the Xinghai research group.
This is a successful genius businessman, is a group boss.
From the perspective of such a businessman, what is the most suitable for them to study?
Whatever the answer is, it’s definitely not something like exoskeleton armor or high-end robots.
Why are things like exoskeleton armor still just a sci-fi concept?
It’s not that it can’t be done at all, but it’s not practical, the price-performance ratio is too low, and there are too many defects.
In fact, if the requirements are not too high, it is very simple for current technology to only implement basic concepts such as armor protection and strength enhancement.
There are various types of ready-made electric motors and hydraulic components to improve body strength. In terms of energy, batteries and fuel are fully sufficient for short-term support, and there are electromyographic sensors and torque sensors for control, which are more than enough to achieve somatosensory interaction.
If you want to make a simple exoskeleton armor, you don’t need any experts, a small company composed of a few high-level students, or even a technical house can do it in private.
For example, there are several small companies in China that are developing this, and the finished product has been featured on TV shows, and there have also been reports from the island country that tech houses have built mechas by themselves.
In Western countries such as Milijian, there are a lot of free local tyrants, technical nerds, and extreme enthusiasts who specialize in this, and some people have created exoskeleton-like jet wingsuits to fly over Tianmen Mountain.
It’s a pity that this so-called exoskeleton armor is not bad for use in combat, and it doesn’t affect the action.
Improving strength can improve strength, but it can only achieve simple lifting and lifting, the movement is slow, and it is impossible to run.
And due to the fact that many components cannot be miniaturized, no matter how it is designed, it is either huge and bloated, or the structure is rigid, which in turn affects physical activity.
As for the flight ability, to put it bluntly, it is no problem to spend money to install a few micro jet engines, and fly for a while or simply fly with reference to the aircraft and wing.
But if you really want to be like the exoskeleton armor in science fiction movies, let alone the hardware cannot be miniaturized to that level, it is just a problem of energy battery life.
In short, exoskeleton armor can be made now, but it is not up to the standard on an industrial basis, and all that are made can only be used as toys or civilian auxiliary equipment.
Civilian equipment is only theoretical. If you really want to carry heavy objects, there are already a series of ready-made tools such as forklifts and cranes. There is absolutely no need for an exoskeleton that is expensive and not practical. .
Therefore, from the perspective of commercial investment, research on this thing is likely to be worthless, and private research and development of this thing is either a hobby or an investment in dreams and futures.
Rather than asking them to study these, it is obviously more promising to study some existing, less advanced commercial products, such as vehicle-related technologies, and industrial production-related technologies.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Meng and Zhou Ji were actually a little worried at that moment. They were worried that they would carry out those boring and uninteresting projects. Rejection at that time was neither an agreement nor an agreement.
“Okay, don’t get too excited, powered exoskeletons are just the long-term goal, our short-term goal is unpowered exoskeletons.”
Xia Xu interrupted the excitedly cheering male team members and poured a little cold water.
In the conventional sense, exoskeleton armor should refer to power exoskeleton armor, which can increase human mobility through energy and power.
But now the industrial foundation of Seablue Star is here, although there should be a lot of black technology hidden, but there is no way to know and obtain it before it is exposed.
With Zhou Ji, Zhang Meng and others, plus Walker, the protagonist of “The Mechanic”, it is still possible to study a power exoskeleton that can be used in actual combat, but it is destined to be a long-term process.
So his short-term goal is an unpowered exoskeleton, or a set of protective gear that can be worn at any time.
An unpowered exoskeleton, as you can tell from the name, is a concept corresponding to a powered exoskeleton.
In fact, many countries are now studying exoskeleton armor, and there are corresponding results.
However, for the various reasons mentioned above, the final research and development direction of these exoskeleton armors has basically turned to unpowered exoskeletons, also known as passive exoskeletons, each of which has mature results.
As the name suggests, it is an exoskeleton that has no energy and power and only relies on structure, material, and mechanics to achieve its effect.
The most essential meaning of the word exoskeleton is derived from the carapace of crustaceans. Human bones are called endoskeletons in the body, and the bones of animals such as crabs and beetles are outside the body, so they are called exoskeletons.
The effects of the two are similar. The most basic one is to support the body and guide the dispersion of gravity and impact force. The exoskeleton can also be used for protection.
Passive exoskeletons do not rely on energy and power devices, but rely on materials and structures to disperse the force of the body, so as to improve weight-bearing capacity, reduce physical exertion, assist in exertion, and reduce muscle and bone strain.
Of course, the full-coverage design can also enhance the body surface defense capability. Relying on the mechanical structure to store energy can also enhance the strength of the limbs. How it depends on the design.
This passive exoskeleton does not require energy and power structures, which eliminates the most bloated part of the exoskeleton armor and can be extremely lightweight.
And because the whole is not complicated, the passive exoskeleton will basically not affect the action, and there will only be pure positive gains. The cost is because there are not many high-tech electronic components that can be compressed to a very low level.
It can be said that passive exoskeleton is the most practical form of exoskeleton armor under the current technology foundation.
And this is exactly what Xia Xu needs~www.mtlnovel.com~ The last time Gardner’s mental hospital was destroyed, Gardner’s people have been offended to death, and their identities have also been revealed. There is retaliatory action.
If nothing else, a group of gunmen from the Special Defense Forces poses a deadly threat to him.
So now he needs a set of protective equipment, and it is protective equipment that can be worn at any time, at least one that can be carried with him.
No matter how powerful the powered exoskeleton is, it is difficult to carry it with you, and it is even more impossible to wear it out all day long like a neurotic. Development is a long process.
In this way, a simple and practical passive exoskeleton is his best choice.
It’s not bad to get a relatively light protective suit. As long as it can be worn close to the body and is bulletproof, with the early warning of the Bai Ze system, at least a small-scale firepower conflict cannot cause a fatal threat to him.
