Chapter 670 I fulfilled my promise

This step is much slower than expected.

Deaf-mute students can also be divided into two categories. One is those who have physiological problems with their vocal organs, resulting in the inability to make sounds.

The other type is some students who are born deaf and mute. In fact, there is no problem with their vocal organs, but they cannot learn to speak because they cannot hear the sound.

For these students, after hearing sounds again through Bafang, even though they could only make unclear meaning sounds such as "Ahhhh" at first, with the help of teachers and parents, they have regained their language skills.

The restructured classes are all students with speech center lesions, abnormal tongue ties, congenital vocal organ problems such as genetic factors, and students who have lost their language ability due to acquired accidents.

The improved [Bafang] can already solve this problem.

Lin You and the technical team of Journey Prosthetics Company completed the test last night - during the experimental phase of the [Rehabilitation Engineer Plan], Journey Prosthetics Company has maintained a volunteer team of more than 100 people, and more than 80% of these volunteers are

People with language impairment.

They have proven the feasibility of the technology.

But the company's volunteers are different from these students.

His words immediately made everyone present look at him in shock.

The live broadcast officially ends here.

At the same time, the headband finally made some movement——

"But the real key to technological breakthroughs is not us."

He has personally experienced the loss of labor force due to blindness. Not only can he no longer support himself, but he has become a drag on his family and has completely lost hope in life.

["Teacher! Let me talk!"]

Hearing the synthesized electronic sound, the boy immediately froze on the spot.

"Ah! Ah..."

"This is not only the last piece of the puzzle for the [Bafang] series of products, but also the last missing technology of Journey Prosthetics Company."

When this session was over, a video was used to introduce and thank the hundreds of volunteers who participated in the trial.

Lin You clapped his hands gently, turning everyone's attention back to him.

——Compared with speaking a sentence, they need to prepare first. For them now, sign language communication is much more efficient.

"Because time is short, what everyone sees now is still a prototype."

These students are different. They have become accustomed to not being able to speak. What they want to say often turns into "thinking" and "sign language" instinctively.

The sound of the live broadcast was lowered, and Lin You's voice intervened again:

Therefore, he knew more clearly: What Lin You did was not an ordinary technological breakthrough, nor was it as simple as the company launching a new product.

Although the teacher kept encouraging everyone, and each student nervously opened his mouth to say something, neither the vocal cords nor the headband made a sound.

Child Qiu Rongjie paused for 2 seconds, and the headband sounded again: "Okay!"

As soon as Lin You finished speaking, the audience burst into applause!

An eight-year-old boy anxiously gestured quickly to his teacher in sign language.

Qiu Rongjie, who had personal experience, described his own feelings and introduced tips to the students. The students' progress improved a lot, and soon three children successfully used their headbands to replace their vocal cords to complete the action of "speaking".

"Just now, everyone saw that this technology also works well in the external environment."

No, not a group of people.

But the teacher reached out, grabbed his hands, and stopped him from signing.

As if thinking for a moment, his mouth moved again. This time no sound came out, but the ring made a sound: ["My name is Qiu Rongjie."]

"Very good, really awesome!" the staff praised.

Habits don't change so quickly. They used their headbands instead of mouths to speak as a demonstration, while quickly showing sign language to introduce their experiences to their classmates.

"Let me explain to you, this is not the final product effect."

But no one was disgusted by the noise at this moment, but they were all sincerely moved.

All of a sudden, there were more and more electronic synthesized sounds, anxious "ahhhh" sounds, the sound of rapid sign language rubbing on the down jacket, and the teacher's encouragement and praise sounded one after another. The originally quiet classroom quickly became lively and even lively.

It got a little noisy.

Kong Xinsheng took the company's technical team to the stage together, and the stage was packed.

Then they spontaneously started to help other students.

Yang Qingfeng stood in the crowd, applauding vigorously, and was almost moved to tears.

The teacher lost no time and said: "That's great. Qiu Rongjie, would you like to help your classmates?"

Lin You stopped for a moment and watched the live broadcast with everyone for a while. He saw that all the students had successfully used the [Bafang] headband to complete their vocalizations. They were excited to use this new method to communicate with each other, and quickly interspersed a few sentences in the middle.

Dazzling sign language.

"I can say without shame—"

"Speaking" is a strange thing.

Lin Youzhen introduced everyone here one by one and the efforts they put in this work.

They cooperate with experiments every day and are very familiar with all processes. They can speak easily during testing and do not need any guidance from engineers.

"Ah-" As soon as he made a sound, the little boy stopped again.

"Let me introduce to you: the person in charge of Journey Prosthetics Company, and the technical team under his leadership!"

The country has added tens of millions of people to its labor force, and tens of millions of families have regained hope for a better life.

"At this point, I can announce that the technical difficulties of language barriers will no longer exist from today on."

The students around him also looked at him.

The engineer of Journey Prosthetics quickly stepped forward to encourage him: "It's amazing! It's just what I felt just now. It's very simple, right? Try it again. As long as you succeed once and find the feeling, the rest will be very simple!"

"I fulfilled my promise to the letter."

Now that he suddenly spoke out, he was also very surprised.

This child had an acquired speech impediment and was originally able to speak. However, when he was 6 years old, he suffered a high fever and convulsions, causing him to unexpectedly lose his speech ability.

——He is still adapting. Later, as he becomes familiar with the "external vocal organs", this "preparatory movement" before vocalization will become shorter and shorter until it disappears completely.

Compared with these, the cost spent on subsidies is simply insignificant!

"That evening, we made a prototype and verified that it was feasible."

In desperation, the little boy opened his mouth——

Thinking of the great subsidies Daxia has provided in this area in recent months, Yang Qingfeng even felt that this was something that would change the fate of the disabled in the entire country.

If someone writes a biography of Lin You in the future, then the "brain-controlled prosthetics" may even be more colorful than the "virtual reality technology"!

The applause lasted for a long time. Lin You repeatedly motioned for everyone to stop, and then finally the sound subsided slightly and he could continue speaking:

"I am not the key to this technological breakthrough."

"Tell us, what is your name?"

"This is not modesty. I did provide basic technology and R&D ideas, but the subsequent specific practical work was completed by others."

"at last……"

"When the final product is released, there will be a more complete software boot program, a high degree of fidelity, a rich variety of sound lines, the sound generator can be disassembled and replaced... and other optimizations will follow."

This is something that completely changes the destiny of a group of people.

After that, Lin You concluded: "The above people, including me, have all made their own contributions to the birth of this technology."

Lin You paused for a moment, couldn't help but recall that day five months ago, and finally said to everyone with pride:

"Finally, the brain-controlled prosthetic limbs that I promised to make on the first day that virtual reality technology was released have finally come to an end today."

"Just yesterday, I got the good news that [the rehabilitation program] was officially successful."

The little boy became even more anxious, but the teacher just held his hand and wouldn't let go.

"The technological breakthrough was completed yesterday, and today I have to rush to hold a press conference. Some people may think that I am so proud of my achievements and can't wait to show off my achievements."

"But no, the real reason is: I can't wait to share the joy with the biggest contributors to technological breakthroughs."

"That's right, it's you." Lin You nodded seriously at the live broadcast camera.

“——130 million participants in [The Rehabilitation Master Program]!”
Chapter completed!
