Chapter 43 The possibility of brain-computer interface
In a high-end sauna.
The two men were lying on the massage table, enjoying the massage services of the two beauties.
One of the men is Black Snake.
When a set of big swords came down, the two of them smoked and chatted.
Black Snake began to complain to the other man that his 'business' had become increasingly difficult recently. He was usually very busy, but in the end he didn't make much money.
"Last time I encountered a tough opponent and almost lost my life."
Thinking of Lu Ning's incident, Black Snake was still frightened.
He often walks by the river, and his shoes don't get wet. He is afraid of walking on this road, and sooner or later he will have to answer for it.
"Black Snake, what you are doing is called business. You have to work very hard for a month to earn so much. At most, it is just a child's play. It will be over sooner or later."
"Brother White Bear, there's nothing I can do. I can only do this. At least I can make a living. What would I do if I didn't do this? I still have a bunch of brothers for me to support."
"Look at how hopeless you are, come with me to see Brother Kun later, and then work with me next to Brother Kun from now on."
"Thank you, Brother White Bear."
Black Snake was very happy.
What he was waiting for was the other person's words.
He knew who Bai Xiong was talking about, Brother Kun. He was the big brother in the real estate industry, and the money he made in one year was enough for him to make for a lifetime.
It seems that good luck has finally come to Black Snake.
He Black Snake is also about to become prosperous!
After the two of them finished enjoying the horse and chicken, White Bear drove Black Snake to a building.
There is a real estate development company in the building.
"Brother Kun, this is my former brother. He wants to follow me and work under you, Brother Kun."
In the office, Jiang Kun, who had greasy hair, lay on a chair and looked at the two people.
Black Snake was a little embarrassed when he was looked at, and lowered his head.
"Let him learn from you first." Jiang Kun glanced at Black Snake and raised his neck.
"Why don't you thank Brother Kun quickly?"
"Thank you, Brother Kun!"
Black Snake bent down and nodded respectfully.
Brother Kun waved his hand, and Bai Xiong took Black Snake out of the office.
----------
Lu Ning now goes to Chang Yonghao's villa every other week and spends his usual time writing code.
As time went by, Lu Ning gradually became a minor celebrity on the Internet.
Influence is spread within a small area.
At this time, Lu Ning posted the stock market software he developed on the Internet.
Because it was a stock market software developed by Lu Ning, and the function was very powerful, many people consulted him for a while, but no one wanted to buy it.
Lu Ning also thought about doing paid downloads in the future, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
The maintenance and operation of the software require a larger background and time, so it is better to sell it directly to others.
He has a bigger plan.
Lu Ning is not in a hurry, he always knows what he is looking for.
Sure enough, after waiting quietly for a few days, interested customers came to the door.
However, there were differences on price.
After final discussion, the price will consist of two parts. The first part: a one-time payment of 100,000 development fees.
The second part: consists of each user’s usage commission.
After this software is sold to the other company, only those who become members can use it.
Each member will provide Lu Ning with a commission of 1 yuan.
The next step is to meet and sign the contract.
For this reason, Lu Ning also made a special trip to other provinces and cities, which is also another major province in China - Shanghai.
As a first-tier city in China, Shanghai has a developed economy and convenient transportation.
This is Lu Ning's first visit to Shanghai.
"Hello."
Lu Ning met the other party at a software development company.
The company's name is Shencheng Shenghua Technology Co., Ltd., which specializes in developing software applications tailored for major enterprises.
Their company itself also supports the application and management of several software, including a stock market software.
The office space is several hundred square meters, and there are more than a dozen people sitting at the workstations.
Lu Ning's arrival only caused some people to poke their heads in, take a look with their short-sighted eyes, and then concentrate on their work again.
The person who received Lu Ning was a product manager named ‘Xu Guangdong’.
"You are indeed young and promising. You can develop this kind of software at such a young age."
Xu Guangdong started praising Lu Ning as soon as they met.
Naturally, they have studied Lu Ning's software in private and feel that it is very difficult and cannot be developed by ordinary people.
"You're welcome, we developed it together with my friends." Lu Ning smiled back.
The other party took Lu Ning to the conference room.
Serve tea and water.
The natural next step is to talk about the contract.
Before investment, their company also conducts software testing and software trial operations.
Formal investment may take one to three months.
Lu Ning said he had no objection.
After signing the contract, he left Shanghai directly.
"That man is so handsome."
When taking the subway or bus, girls often look at Lu Ning frequently, and some girls who are close to him will whisper to each other, blushing shyly.
----------
The replication of human abilities is much faster than Lu Ning imagined.
This time, in less than a month, Professor Zhao Yue's computer capabilities have already evolved.
"Sure enough, he has become handsome again."
Lu Ning stood shirtless in front of the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror.
With neutral smooth skin, a resolute three-dimensional face, a height of 1.8 meters, and eight-pack abdominal muscles, Lu Ning showed a confident smile on his lips.
The second copying of human genes once again caused some changes in his appearance, making him closer to perfection.
If it was 85 points before, it is now 90 points. For the opposite sex, it is simply a killer.
"It's time to start copying the next ability."
Lu Ning has already thought about the next target person to copy.
The other party is - He Wu.
Who is He Wu?
He Wu, male, Han nationality, was born in Hangzhou in August 1957. He is a professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Department of Electrical Engineering, and Department of Neuroscience at the University of Minnesota, USA, and a distinguished professor at Jiangzhe University.
Graduated from the Department of Electrical Engineering of Jiangzhe University in 1982.
Obtained a PhD in applied electronics from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, in 1998.
work experience
He is currently a professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Department of Electrical Engineering, and Department of Neuroscience at the University of Minnesota, Director of the Biomedical Functional Imaging and Computing Laboratory, and Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Minnesota.
Department of Systems Science and Engineering, Jiangzhe University, Guangbiao Chair Professor, Distinguished Professor.
And why did Lu Ning choose Professor He Wu? Because he is a leader in brain-computer interfaces in China.
----------
In fact, we in China already have the initial application of brain-computer interface.
The so-called brain-computer interface is to establish a channel between the brain and external devices such as prosthetics to directly transmit brain instructions. This enables brain signals to pass through the computer even when the spinal cord and motor nerve pathways are damaged but the cerebral cortex function is still intact.
Interpret and directly control external devices.
In fact, our country has also been committed to related research in the field of brain-computer interface, and has also achieved certain results on an international scale.
As early as 2012, a domestic team understood the neural signals of the four actions of grasping, hooking, holding, and pinching in monkey brains by implanting microelectrode arrays in monkey brains. In 2014, the team began to try to implant microelectrode arrays in the human brain.
Cortical EEG electrodes are implanted, allowing the subject to control the robot hand to complete the "rock, scissors, paper" actions through "thoughts".
There is also an example of a breakthrough.
Mr. Zhang is 72 years old. He suffered a fourth cervical spinal cord injury due to a car accident two years ago, resulting in complete paralysis of all four limbs.
The Second Affiliated Hospital of Jiangzhe University School of Medicine has used "brain-computer interface technology" to allow Mr. Zhang to control the robotic arm with his 'mind'. After systematic training, he can now not only shake hands, but also hold drinks, eat fried dough sticks, and play mahjong...
In 2001, Beixia University realized the control of a mouse and various buttons on a TV through an intrusive brain-computer interface. In 2006, they used this method to control two robot dogs for a football match.
In 2017, the Institute of Semiconductors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a collaborative research team proposed a task-related component analysis algorithm to further increase the communication rate of the steady-state visual evoked potential brain-computer interface to 5.4 bit/s, with the optimal result reaching 6.3 bit/s, which is the best result so far
As of August 2019, the fastest scalp-brain computer interface system has been reported.
----------
Why Lu Ning is so confident about realizing brain-computer interfaces and somatosensory devices in the future is because he also has this knowledge in his mind.
And there are a lot of talents in this field in the country.
In addition to China, the United States is also making continuous breakthroughs in brain-computer interface technology.
In the early stage, Lu Ning planned to copy the capabilities of several top brain-computer interface and neurological experts in the country.
In the later stage, he will travel to the United States and other countries to copy the capabilities of experts from other countries.
As for brain-computer interface technology, in addition to the United States and China, other powerful countries are also racing against time to conduct research in the hope of an early breakthrough.
These include Switzerland, Brazil, Canada, Spain, Japan, etc.
"I want to study it in advance before you all have done it!"
Lu Ning's heart was filled with pride.
