Chapter 1013 Inestimable Value


Chapter 1013 Inestimable Value~

Jinling.

In the Xinghai Research Institute, in the dean’s office, a familiar video call ringtone rang.

His eyes fell on the Mars exploration data on the table. He picked up his mobile phone from the table and took a look at the caller ID. There was a smile in Xu Chuan's eyes.

With a click of his thumb, he connected to the video.

On the opposite side of the video, a face with a ponytail came into view.

The call was from Xu Xiao, and her delicate little face was filled with uncontrollable joy and excitement.

"Brother!"

After shouting with excitement, Xu Xiao pretended to be mysterious and asked: "What do you think I called you for?"< br>
Looking at the little face on the opposite side of the video that couldn’t hide his worries, Xu Chuan said with a smile: “I don’t have anything to do without going to the Three Treasures Hall. Apart from asking me for money, do you have anything else to do with me? ?”

Hearing this, Xu Xiao pursed her lips and said dissatisfied: "Brother!"

Just when she was about to complain, before she could say anything, her little head turned quickly again, and then she He said coquettishly following Xu Chuan's words.

"Brother, you are too smart! Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you!"

"Hehe~."

Xu Chuan glanced at her, He didn't expose her, and continued: "You only had to leave 300 million in May. It's only August, three months, why are you spending money to play?"

"Brother! All R&D and optimization experiments cost money." Xu Xiao pouted and pretended to sigh: "You don't know how difficult it is to manage a company if you don't call the shots!"

" Really! Employee salaries, R&D budgets, project management and control, performance bonuses... Damn it, each of them costs a small amount of money. Three hundred million yuan is not enough to last for three months. Wrong, I really don’t have a penny now.”

“Brother, help! When our bionic mechanical prosthetic technology is launched, let alone 300 million, it will be 300. The returns of 100 million are easy!”

On the opposite side of the video, Xu Xiao was counting each one with his fingers while drawing a pie for his brother.

Xu Chuan just watched happily and did not answer anything.

He knew that Xu Xiao's call to him this time was definitely not about money. This girl had never hidden her thoughts in front of him. She probably wanted money temporarily and wanted to 'blackmail' him a little more.

Although researching virtual technology and bionic mechanical prosthetics is indeed very expensive, and scientific research is indeed a waste of money, but if this girl doesn’t have a penny on her body, I might as well believe her. Believing himself to be the reincarnation of Qin Shihuang.

It was only in May that 300 million yuan was taken away from him, and now it is only mid-August. In three and a half months, this is not how money was burned.

However, Xu Chuan could also guess Xu Xiao’s purpose for asking for money, including the video call she made to him this time.

As expected, the clinical trials on bionic mechanical prostheses should have made progress, and may have even been completed.

After all, counting the time, it has been more than five months since the bionic mechanical prosthetic + brain-computer interface chip was approved for final human clinical trials in March this year.

According to the clinical trial standards for general medical equipment, it takes as little as four months and as long as about half a year to complete the inspection of a device.

Although bionic mechanical prosthetics + brain-computer interface chip technology is complex, as long as there are no major accidents in the clinical trials that lead to the death of the people undergoing the experiment, or serious injuries to the brain or body, or nerve damage, etc., There won't be any big problems if you pass the experiment normally.

Although he has a little to do with it, behind the scenes he mainly provides some funds and helps to contact clinical hospitals, patients, etc.

As for clinical trials, he did not intervene in any relevant processes or provide help.

He even said hello to the director of the Clinical Medical Center of the Hexi Campus of the First Hospital. Everything must be carried out according to normal standards. If there are any unexpected problems or situations during the clinical experiment, he must be notified as soon as possible. he.

It is not that he is afraid that Xu Xiao will use his connections to mess around with clinical experiments and pass those examinations that should not pass or have problems.

He also watched this girl grow up. She can't do this kind of thing.

What he is worried about is that hospitals and related personnel may provide some 'help' in clinical trials, such as relaxing the review of certain indicators, passing some problematic inspections, etc.

Especially because Xu Xiao is still his sister. With his status and reputation in the country, even if he doesn't mention it, many people will take the initiative to 'speculate' his thoughts and then do something to please him. things.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Xu Xiao or his parents have any difficulties, as long as the news gets out, I believe countless people will rush to help solve it.

This kind of thing is not impossible. The network of relationships is densely covered everywhere.

For these people, even just brushing their faces in front of him is worth it.

So for clinical medical experiments, the Clinical Medical Center of the Hexi Campus of the First Hospital sent him relevant test reports and data every week.

Although there are still some convenience behaviors that are unavoidable, as long as the bionic mechanical prostheses and brain nerve interface chips do not cause physical or mental damage to the people undergoing the experiment in clinical trials, it will It doesn't matter anymore.

Life safety is his bottom line. As long as this red line is not crossed, other problems are trivial to him.

After watching Xu Xiao’s performance quietly for a while, Xu Chuan suddenly smiled and asked: “Have the clinical trials of bionic intelligent prostheses and brain-computer interface chips been completed?”

Hearing this, Xu Xiao, who was still trying to act coquettishly and cutely to swindle some money from her brother on the other side of the video call, was stunned.

After being stunned for a while, she said: "Brother! Did you arrange an ultimatum around me?"

Xu Chuan glanced at her and said, "Is it necessary? ? With your little calculation, you still need to think so much? ”

Xu Xiao smiled, but soon recovered, with a little excitement on his face, and said: "Brother, I really come to you for help this time!"

Xu Chuan: "What's wrong?"

Xu Xiao said quickly: "First of all, let me tell you some good news! The development of bionic intelligent prostheses and brain-computer interface chips The clinical trial has officially passed the third phase of clinical trials!”

“We conducted experiments on fifteen people with disabilities in each city at the trial centers in Jinling, Xingcheng, Modu, Jingcheng, and Sichuan. Comparative clinical test, what’s the final result?”

“How much?”

"One hundred percent!" Xu Xiao said with excitement: "A total of 75 clinical experimenters in five cities have passed the third phase of the experiment!"

"And the bionic smart prosthetics installed on them are functional. The test standard reached 99.78%, the data transmission stability rate of the brain-computer interface chip was 99.42%, and the stable conversion rate was 99.81%. All patients who underwent clinical trials showed excellent mobility during the four-month clinical trial. "It is no exaggeration to say that they are almost completely indistinguishable from normal people." Xu Xiao said that Xu Xiao did not expect that people with disabilities undergoing clinical trials in these five different cities could pass the third phase of the trial with such a high standard and pass rate.

After all, in previous experiments, they also faced the problem of out-of-control conversion of ERP potential signal data in EEG brain wave signals.

In the end, she relied on the mathematical model established by her brother to solve this problem.

Originally, I thought that after the third phase of clinical trials, they would need to further optimize the mathematical model and related induction conversion signals before it can be promoted.

However, the mathematical model completed by Xu Chuan was far more excellent than she imagined.

Once again, Xu Xiao felt the ‘perversion’ of his brother!

Hearing that the data was so good, Xu Chuan also smiled, and then asked: "Then what do you want from me?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiao chuckled and said: "Propaganda!"

"Propaganda?"

Nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Xu Xiao said with a smile: "No. Wrong, it’s just propaganda.”

After a slight pause, she continued. He continued: "The Phase III clinical trials have already met the national medical device standards. In this case, we will also prepare to introduce bionic smart prostheses and brain-computer interface chips to society."

"Brother~"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

The last note suddenly dragged out for a long time, and Xu Xiao said in a tone that was almost sweet to death: "Help me stand on the stage~, after the product launch conference."

After hanging up the call, Xu Chuan smiled and shook his head, then called his assistant and asked her to transfer 200 million to the account of Starlight Virtual Reality Technology Co., Ltd.

Although bionic smart prosthetics and brain-computer interface chips have passed the third phase of clinical trials, subsequent research and optimization will continue, including promotion, which also requires money.

If it was when Starlight Virtual Technology was established, he wouldn't be able to send money directly like this. After all, Shuimu University occupied a certain share here at that time, and a series of issues would have to be considered.

But after Xu Xiao graduated, he got these shares back. Now half of the shares of Starlight Technology are in his hands, and the other half is in Xu Xiao's hands. No matter how much he invests, it will not be cheaper for others.

With the value of bionic mechanical prosthetic technology and brain-computer interface chip technology, as long as a product can be officially launched to the market, the product explosion is destined to explode.

The potential of Starlight VR technology must be noticed by everyone.

For bionic mechanical prosthetics technology and brain-computer interface chip technology, the latter is actually more important.

The problem with bionic mechanical prostheses is not actually the robotic arms. If you want to flexibly control the prostheses, how to sense and coordinate with the activities of the human body is the core key node.

Motion bionics and control bionics have always been core issues in prosthetic limb research.

Whether it is a traditional nerve-controlled bionic prosthetic hand or a digital bionic electronic hand, it needs to be integrated with the human body in order to function.

It is said that smoothly matching the movements of the human body is the biggest problem.

The brain-computer interface chip studied by Xu Xiao almost perfectly solves this problem.

Although currently only the limbs can be controlled smoothly, it can be moved to other parts of the human body in the future.

Such as eyes, ears, vocal cords, etc.

It is something that can be seen in the near future to allow people with disabilities such as deaf-mute, blindness, etc. to perceive the world again.

More importantly, the biggest use of interface chips that can accurately sense and convert brain wave signals is not in medical devices.

Helping people with disabilities return to normal lives is just an ‘additional’ function.

For brain-computer interface chips, its greatest use is to help humans build a ‘second world’!

Computer simulation is used to generate a three-dimensional virtual world, providing users with simulations of vision, hearing, touch and other senses, allowing users to feel an immersive experience and at the same time be able to freely interact with things in the space.

This is ‘100% real virtual reality’, a technology common in science fiction novels and science fiction movies.

Although this function is most commonly used in various games in science fiction or game online novels and movies, games are only part of its functions.

Various fields such as medical simulation surgery, military aerospace simulation training, industrial simulation, emergency deduction, etc. are all promising fields for its future application.

For example, medical simulation surgery, let’s take the simplest example.

In real surgeries, mistakes by medical students and doctors can result in injury or even death to the patient.

It often takes more than ten years for a medical student to grow into an independent doctor.

If it is in some special fields, it may take twenty, thirty or even longer years.

What is also limiting the growth of doctors is the number of cases.

In some special niche disease areas and areas that require ‘major surgery’, the number of patients is often limited, and younger doctors have little opportunity to get started.

Such as heart bypass surgery, heart valve replacement surgery, brain tumor surgery, etc.

These surgeries are more traumatic to the body and carry high surgical risks, and may cause permanent effects on brain function and complications.

Even chief doctors and well-known experts are not 100% sure of the success of these major surgeries, and it is impossible for junior doctors to perform them.

By using simulated surgical training equipment, medical students and doctors can gain an operating experience close to real surgery.

In the operating room constructed with virtual reality, they can become familiar with the use of surgical instruments, become familiar with the surgical process, and improve their operating skills, so as to better cope with actual surgical scenarios.

You can also try new techniques and equipment without risk, increase your risk awareness, and improve your ability to handle complex situations.

Whether it is improving the professional level of doctors or ensuring the safety of patients, virtual reality technology has immeasurable value.

As for publicity

Xu Chuan didn't mind Xu Xiao pulling him to help stand at the product launch conference.

The sooner bionic mechanical prosthetics are launched on the market and known to everyone, the sooner those with disabilities will return to normal lives.

The pioneering work of Starlight Virtual Reality Technology Company can also drive other capital to invest in research and development in related fields, further benefiting society.

He is still happy with this kind of thing.
