The tool man who steals technology

Chapter 9: A Prosthetic with Multiple Functions

"Arrogant, help me check if there are any prostheses in the library."

"Master, the prosthetic limb has long been removed from the medical device catalog. If a citizen is injured and is physically disabled, as long as he does not die of the brain, he can reshape his body in the medical warehouse."

"...Then get me a medical warehouse."

"Master, the medical warehouse is an important medical facility and requires supporting equipment to operate, so it is not in the catalog of the citizens' material reserve."

"Open...what's the joke?"

Ning Yuanchen was depressed. I didn't expect that such a developed empire didn't even have prosthetic limbs. Is it easy to take a hurried nap to "steal" something?

"If I am injured, do I have to press the prosthesis?"

"Master, you will violate the Civil Health Law in that way, and you will be forced to recover and be dragged to labor!" Looking at the thoughtful Ning Yuanchen, he added another arrogantly.

"Master, you can't do stupid things!"

"Relax, I'm not stupid."

Ning Yuanchen, who turned over and got out of bed, looked at the housekeeping robot sending the bath towel into the bedroom thoughtfully. If the robot's legs were removed and the program assisted to press the human body, could it work?

It should be good, but without interaction, the control and sense of physical space will definitely be much worse.

"Arrogant, do you have any information on EMG, muscles, prosthetic qualifications and EEG data for me to check."

"Ok, the data has been downloaded."

...

Ning Yuanchen, who was checking information while eating breakfast, suddenly developed a fascination with cameras and projection equipment all over the world. Once, he always had a feeling of being monitored, with a guilty conscience, but now... it's so fragrant!

All information can be clearly projected in the entire room, controlled by fingers and language, and there are holographic images as a reference, and can be disassembled layer by layer to view its internal structural design.

The imperial medicine also has its current achievements after a long discovery. Take the prosthetic leg of the leg, it has developed from putting a "stick" on a prosthetic foot and covering it with a fake skin, and it has developed to be enough to complete daily life and work. The required electromyography prosthesis took hundreds of years.

With the development of biochemical technology, biochemical prostheses that combine biochemistry and machinery have emerged. This kind of prosthetic limbs that can seamlessly integrate with the body can be used to fake the real, and then there are genes that can’t distinguish between the real and the fake, until the emergence of the medical warehouse. , The prosthetic limbs that have gone through thousands of years of change have completely reduced to history.

The electromyography prosthesis, which originally thought Ning Yuanchen was such a high-tech product, after being stripped of his cocoons and slowly uncovering the mystery, he sighed that it was nothing more than that!

Although these hardware facilities such as batteries, power, transmission and sensors are ingeniously designed, they can still be produced or found in the real world. The core of the electromyography prosthesis, to put it simply, is actually a "translator".

And this translator is very simple, just put the two "languages" corresponding to each other, and the detected biosignals through this translator are mechanical instructions, and the prosthesis only needs to follow the instructions to complete the corresponding actions. Just fine.

The information detected by the sensor is conveyed to the body through this translator is the biological information that the human body can understand. The brain that receives this information will mistakenly perceive the existence of the body, and control it to complete and daily needs. .

It's simple to say, but it is precisely this "translator" that restricts the real society. The human body is carrying out complex information transmission, exchange and processing at all times, especially the brain, how to read in this chaotic information Getting the correct information becomes a problem.

There is a simple and rude way, which is to collect a lot of information, compare the content of the information a little bit, and fine-tune the differences between individuals. This problem will be solved.

It seems simple, but the workload is huge. Although Ning Yuanchen can bring this "translator" back to reality in some time, he hesitated.

Let’s not say whether these data are suitable for the real world. Even if it is applicable, you have to collect some information to compare the process. How much is it, what's the matter if you take it out directly, play?Is it out of nothing?

You have to set up a laboratory, you have to recruit some scientific researchers, and there are no fewer volunteers, and you have to invest 8 million yuan... can it?The family can give me more than one hundred and two hundred thousand yuan, alas, it is really hard to do something practical, but I am a person who wants to contribute to communism, and it is too much to force me to make money!

After eating breakfast, you must exercise your body, otherwise the laws of the empire will not allow it, and taking a nap is a good habit, which must be maintained and normalized.

...

Ning Yuanchen, who woke up from a nap, unceremoniously instructed Qu Xueer to help him buy some paper and pen stationery. He wanted to study what could make money.

The money didn’t come, so the laptop was naturally dead. Ning Yuanchen could understand that after all, he already had a laptop. Wouldn’t it be a waste to sell it? What’s more, it’s not a good idea to heal your injuries in the hospital?

Ok!Who said that you can't do creative work in the hospital?

Inheriting Jasler’s memory, he now has a qualitative improvement in his understanding of programs and editing capabilities, especially for smart programs, but without a computer, the idea of ​​using software to earn initial funds can only be a waste of money. .

Ning Yuanchen, who always had mechas, robots, and prostheses in his mind, suddenly had an idea, picked up a pen and quickly drew a sketch on the drawing book.

Why bother with making money and EMG?As long as the conditions are met, a good "prosthetic" can still be produced.

In the painting book, simple lines outline the outline of the human body below the waist. There are blank long frames on the back waist, outside of the legs and under the feet, and several circles are drawn on the waist, knees and elbows.

As the lines gradually increased, the "prosthetic" in Ning Yuanchen's mind became clearer and clearer. The waist was half-wrapped by the arc-shaped cuboid on both sides. Here will be the battery, control and balance system.

The thighs, calves and feet are also half-enclosed. Although there are also sensors and other equipment, the thighs are the top priority because not only are the bases designed to withstand broken limbs, but the sensors are also more responsible.

In Ning Yuanchen's vision, the user only needs to have a part of the thigh, and the sensor will read the changes in this part of the thigh, and then complete the movement of the lower limbs. Even though this is not necessarily perfect, being able to walk is already a breakthrough.

And this device has the ability to control walking by hand, so it can also be used as a rehabilitation device to help patients with paralysis and fractures do rehabilitation training.

Of course, as an exoskeleton, it still retains the ability of an exoskeleton. As long as you add a backpack or a shelf on the back, you can transfer most of the weight to it, which makes it easier. If you design a matching The upper body is more perfect.

One multi-purpose, don't care what it belongs to, it's a good thing to use!

Ning Yuanchen became more excited as he thought about it, writing like a divine help, recalling the structure of the prosthesis and exoskeleton, constantly improving the creation in front of him, turning over the drawing papers, and various ingenious structural designs came out one after another.

Fortunately, he studied mechanical design and automation, and also studied electrical engineering. If he studied medicine, he would really have to weigh in.

When Ning Yuanchen's "inspiration" got stuck, the window was gradually dark, and she raised her head to see Qu Xueer throwing a strawberry into her mouth while holding a fruit plate. Looking at that small mouth, Ning Yuanchen was stunned. You really can't!

"Is it delicious?"

"It's okay!" Qu Xueer closed her mouth as she said. She swallowed strawberries directly into her abdomen with her throat squirming, and then stretched out her tongue to lick her lips and continued.

"Do you eat?"
