Chapter 967: Price and Safety

Zhou Jiangping and a few Lehui professionals looked at the drawings on Chen Mo's computer screen, and they were all dumbfounded.

Because... what this drawing depicts is a device that the world has been guessing for many years, but never actually developed: a VR gaming pod using neural access technology.

The development of the existing VR technology has reached a bottleneck, just like how the steam engine is improved, it cannot reach the efficiency of the internal combustion engine.

If the existing VR technology wants to be further improved, the most is to improve the picture accuracy, do a few more character actions, and then update the somatosensory equipment, so that the sense of somatosensory brings people to be more realistic...

However, no matter how it is improved, it is impossible to reach the level of neural access.

And now the new VR game cabin blueprint that Chen Mo has come up with is equivalent to a transition from a steam engine to an internal combustion engine, essentially changing the working principle of the VR game cabin, and it can also be said to have opened a new era of VR games.

Zhou Jiangping suppressed his excitement and asked: "Mr. Chen, let's not talk about the cost of this thing, I want to ask first, this thing... can it work normally?"

Chen Mo: "=="

"Cough cough." Zhou Jiangping coughed twice, "Mr. Chen, don't worry, I'll take a good look at this drawing."

Chen Mo sat on the sofa next to him: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, take a look."

Zhou Jiangping and several Lehui technicians gathered around the computer screen and carefully looked at the entire design drawings, including the various components and principles of this new VR game cabin.

After watching it for about half an hour, Zhou Jiangping was sitting on the sofa next to him, and he still didn't remember it.

Chen Mo asked, "How is it?"

Zhou Jiangping was obviously very excited, but he still kept his calm: "If it's just in terms of production, it can be done! It's just expensive. There are several of them that use the most cutting-edge technologies, such as neural connection technology, life safety systems, etc. Etc., especially the neural connection technology, basically just uses the highest technology at this stage.”

"But there is a problem. At this stage, you can make the electrodes you want to monitor, guide, and input brain signals, but...how to analyze the collected brain signals, the current level of technology cannot be researched. This equipment is also, If there is no corresponding analysis program, even if the brain signal is collected, how can it be converted into a program signal and transmitted to the host? How can the host's signal be transmitted to the player?"

Chen Mo smiled: "You don't have to worry about it, I also have the parsing program, and I have applied for patents with the Tourism Commission for both hardware and software. Now I'm considering making a sample first and estimating the price."

Zhou Jiangping still couldn't believe it, but seeing Chen Mo's determination, he basically believed it 70% to 80%.

"In terms of construction cost, each unit should be around 300,000 to 400,000. If the cost is reduced, it should be at least 250,000, which is still much more expensive than most of the existing VR game cabins. But I don't think the price is anything. The problem, after all, this thing represents the future development direction, not to mention that there are really many rich people in this world."

Chen Mo thoughtful: "Well, 300,000..."

The price is a bit unexpectedly expensive.

The cost of the original VR game cabin is between 50,000 and 200,000, and there is no way to promote it on a large scale, let alone a new game cabin of 250,000.

Of course, the so-called "large-scale promotion" mainly means that this thing can enter thousands of households and enter the working class. If only those rich people are considered, this potential market is still quite large. That is to say, at this stage, it can only be a toy for local tyrants, and it cannot even completely replace the old VR game cabin.

Chen Mo thought for a moment: "If that's the case, then we won't cut the price. We'll take the high-end route. Anyway, for the rich, there's not much difference between 250,000 and 300,000."

Zhou Jiangping nodded: "I think so too, this thing can't be made at the price of cabbage, then for the working class, even if it is 20,000 to 30,000 yuan cheaper, they still think it is expensive.

At this stage, we can only go to the high-end market. However, this thing is the product of the most cutting-edge technology, and it is a monopoly market. No matter how you sell it, it is a huge profit. "

Chen Mo tapped the table lightly: "We can handle this level of hardware now."

Zhou Jiangping nodded: "Yes. Because this VR game cabin is equivalent to bringing our cutting-edge technology into the practical stage in advance, which is equivalent to a small leap. In terms of hardware, since we can build it, we can definitely repair it, but …”

Zhou Jiangping paused and asked again: "What I'm worried about is the risk of this thing. This brand-new VR game cabin directly transmits messages to and from the player's brain and nerves. If there is an accident, it will not harm the player. brain damage?"

Chen Mo explained: "This, the Tourism Committee has arranged for experts and technicians to evaluate the safety of this thing. If it does not pass, it will definitely not be possible to sell it. However, it should not be a big problem, because this equipment is not Invasive, that is, no 'brain intubation' is required, and the safety is relatively high."

"The human brain has a strong protection mechanism. The access to the brain and nerves is carried out under the player's semi-hypnotic state. The game cabin itself will also monitor the data transmitted to the player and the player's physical state in real time. Any abnormality will be Disconnecting consciousness immediately, for the players, at best, they are like having a nightmare, even less than the horror of the nightmare."

"For these, the Tourism Committee will arrange corresponding clinical trials, and have an estimate of the maximum shock value of this thing. But we don't need to worry about these things, and we don't have that power."

Zhou Jiangping nodded: "Okay, it seems that I have thought too much. In this way, I will arrange to make a sample immediately, it should be very soon."

Chen Mo seemed to think of something again and said: "By the way, you should also take a good look at some additional functions, such as life support system, video signal output system for live broadcast, etc. This thing may have some special people or special features. Department-specific versions should also be considered in advance.”

Zhou Jiangping nodded: "Okay, no problem."

...

Zhou Jiangping left happily. For him, what if this thing was sold more expensively? There are bound to be rich people who will buy it. Especially those wealthy people who are old and frail and sick, this thing is equivalent to a second life, and it is impossible to have no sales.

Chen Mo's idea is much simpler. Anyway, after unlocking a few technology points, the price of this product will drop. First, sell a batch of pit tyrants, and let the players in this world get used to it, and wait until later. Mass production is it.

Of course, it can't be said to be a pit, after all... buy it early and enjoy it early.
