Chapter 420 Photon Computer

Just when countries around the world were still busy developing military technology and wars, the core electronic computer research and development department of the China Economic and Economic Union had already fully understood the original technology and began to push the computer technology of this era to an unimaginable level.

Photon computers and intelligent robots, two key technological revolutions that will only begin to dominate the world pattern a hundred years later, have officially become key investment projects by the International Economic Union.

In the Super Generation Science and Technology Park, the research and development of photon computers has begun. Although the prospects are very promising, there are still doubts in the system as to whether it will take so much effort to invest in this plan.

After listening carefully to the opinions of the technical research team, Chen Ze lowered his head and thought for a while, and shook his head and said, "Yang, although I don't object, I still have reservations. I don't understand technology very much, but I heard from several scientists that photon computers cannot be achieved in the short term. Such a long-term project should be paid by the state, and this is not something that our current strength can bear risks."

Because the Hualian League had officially established a country, but only Germany and Japan recognized the Hualian League's legitimate status in China. In Germany, because Hitler wanted to win over China to declare war on Russia, Japan was forced to recognize the Hualian League's regime due to military pressure and diplomatic needs.

Zhong Yang also understood Chen Ze's concerns, so he chose a compromise plan: "Then reduce the investment intensity, but the basic theory research must begin now. This technology has epoch-making significance, and we cannot hesitate."

"Since you insist, I don't want to say anything. I just want to say one thing. If the annual R&D expenditure of this project exceeds 10 million yuan, I will use the power of the Vice Chairman of the China International Economic Union and the core members of the Chinese Civil Affairs Association to oppose the funding plan! Moreover, this project has been studied for five years. As the research time extends, I will decrease this funding year by year. Unless you have achieved results, I am not going to use all the profits of the China International Economic Union to fill this bottomless pit!"

Chen Ze is not unreasonable, but he is frank and has to take into account all aspects of the entire Industrial and Economic Union and even the entire Hualian industrial layout. If this plan does not achieve the expected success and wastes too much resources, it will be absolutely unfavorable to the development of the country's industrial technology.

It is also because photonic computer technology is too advanced, and after years of research, he bluntly expressed his dissatisfaction with the fact that this project has never been successful.

Capitalists also look at long-term interests, but they need that kind of visible interests. If Zhong Yang hadn't insisted, Chen Ze and Liu Haoran would not be willing to invest in this project.

If any illusory bright future is slim, or if it is something that can only be realized in decades or hundreds of years, fools will invest money in it.

Anyway, after decades, various technologies have gradually matured. No matter what technology that seemed advanced but unrealistic in the past, they will naturally ripen their sweet potatoes. Many people in the ancient Chinese Society are so obsessed with Zhong Yang and are now creating a brain.

In their opinion, it is better to concentrate on the "Sky Plan".

The Sky Plan encountered more difficulties and had many technical problems to be solved. Moreover, this plan was related to the vital interests of all of them and was much more important than anything else.

Of course, if Zhong Yang creates a miracle and creates a light brain a hundred years ahead of schedule, they will of course be extremely excited. With light brain to help research, the Sky Plan has a greater possibility.

But the premise of everything is: the brain can be created, not staying on paper.

Because of Zhong Yang's strong persistence, and he said that the difficulty of R&D was not as high as expected, although everyone was skeptical, they reluctantly agreed to cooperate with each other, and it was limited to two years.

In two years, if satisfactory results are not achieved, Chen Ze and the Scientific Research Coordination Committee will significantly reduce the funds provided to the optical brain project team, and at most maintain its basic research. Scientists from other departments will also return to their department and will no longer stay in the project team for a long time, resulting in waste of manpower.

After the meeting, Zhong Yang asked computer engineer Tang Yunsong to convene all the personnel of the project team to hold a technical discussion meeting in the multi-function conference room.

At the meeting, he asked the project team members to sort out the required technologies for photon computers in detail. They discussed the research results over the past five years one by one, and what aspects can be directly used. Which technologies still need to be improved and which need to be further studied.

The discussion continued until night, and as the discussion deepened, the debate among scientific researchers became increasingly fierce.

Zhong Yang and the project team members simply filled in their stomachs, and the meeting was late at night. It was only after three o'clock in the morning that it was considered a comprehensive understanding of the existing technical achievements, and a clear judgment on the next step of work.

The preliminary meeting lasted eleven days, and Zhong Yang was also in the project team for eleven days, presided over the entire discussion process.

After the meeting here was finished, Zhong Yang arranged the work in steps. Lu Yongheng also handed over the opening letter of the automation laboratory, and he turned to the automation department and participated in the laboratory reconstruction project.

The quotation of special alloy land required made Zhong Yang gasp.

If you follow this quotation, the cost of completing a laboratory robot is as high as millions of Chinese Yuan. Every part, the required materials, and the difficulty of processing will require a large amount of money to invest.

Some of the special alloys and composite materials needed, but the market price of the Industrial and Economic Union reaches tens of thousands of yuan. Such a super robot is indeed very expensive.

If it weren't for the help of smart factories, even Zhong Yang himself would have been discouraged in the face of such scientific research costs.

When Zhong Yang really started to develop the laboratory robot he asked for, he really felt the difficulty of its research and development, which was even more difficult than he thought.

The key is the accuracy of the robot itself. Unlike humans, robots have vision and can accurately distinguish the shape, color and texture of objects. They can also judge their heating, expansion, etc. based on some subtle phenomena and make timely reflections.

All actions of intelligent machinery are based on their program settings.

If you ask it to get a glass of water on the table, the robot will come to the table according to the program settings, then reach out and grab the water cup.

However, if you change the water cup to another place, if the robot does not have the ability to recognize independently, it will still be rigidly located where the water cup should exist, extending its robotic arm and "holding the water cup".

In other words, all its actions depend on the original program setting and there is no ability to make independent judgments.

Also, the robot's movements are usually very slow to ensure stability. Many times, people who watch it will make a simple movement for it, and they will spend a long time slowly and anxious.

In order to improve the robot's recognition ability, perceive touch ability, and make independent judgment ability, Zhong Yang and the researchers took a long time to think of various methods, and only six months later, they made a sample that roughly meets the basic requirements.

In order to ensure stability and reduce the processing time of adjusting its own posture, the laboratory robot can only still use guide rails to move back and forth on fixed lines.

There are dozens of processors in the robot's body, and three of them act as the main control processing of the brain, responsible for graphics, touch and movements.

Other chips are specially made microprocessors. These microprocessors control specific links including wrists, torso, steering, posture adjustment, etc., and each performs its own duties.

When a robot determines its own posture, it relies on a micro gyroscope and a level-level precision measuring instrument. Data is transmitted through these instruments. The main control brain can accurately bend over, balance, turn and other actions.

The precision measuring instrument on the wrist allows the robot to accurately control the robot's actions, such as turning the bowl, pouring the bowl, pouring the body, and so on, as close to humans as possible.

The laser positioning system allows the robot to move to the right position and adjust the position distance by controlling the pitch of its own body.

The logical judgment part is designed in a very delicate way and is unique. For example, give the robot a command to move to the test bench, pick up the measuring cup on the alcohol stove, and pour it into another measuring cup.

After receiving the command, the robot will follow the guide rail to the test bench. The positioning system will stop at a suitable distance, and then the main controls the brain to fine-tune the body.

The specially made measuring cups, alcohol stoves and other experimental instruments have an electronic receiving device embedded in thermal insulation materials, allowing the robot to find the position of the measuring cup and accurately hold the measuring cup.

Its hands are lined with elastic composite materials, and a piezoelectric induction system is placed under the skin. By pre-entering the grip strength of different objects, the robot can hold it steadily without crushing it or deforming it.

In the process of reaching and closing hands, the motor drives it quickly so that it does not take a few minutes to move. However, in parts that require precise operation, such as grasping, controlling the angle of tipping, height, etc., the stepper motor controls its arms and slows down to ensure the smoothness of the entire process.

In this specially made laboratory, all instruments, even measuring cups, measuring tools, etc., have electronic devices that read data and transmit them to robots.

This laboratory, a robot that can make accurate movements is just one link, and all its actions are derived from the original movements of the testers.

When the tester is doing the test site, he also operates under the same environment.

However, he was wearing a special coat, which was filled with electronic sensing elements. Every move of the tester, the instruments he used and those steps he took were recorded truthfully and transferred to the supercomputer for storage.

The robot completely reproduces the actions of the tester based on the data sent to it by the central computer. The time spent in each step, the small jitters and mistakes of the tester during operation, are reproduced without any mistakes.

This will be the closest to the reappearance of the situation at that time, and completely restore all the actions of the scientific researchers at that time, ensuring that there will be no deviation as much as possible. Theoretically, such experimental reproduction should achieve the same effect as the original laboratory.

After the efforts of all personnel, such a laboratory is actually not an ordinary laboratory, but is equivalent to a highly precise and super-large instrument.

Including robots, they are just a precision component of this instrument. All its functions are to reproduce the entire process of the tester and reproduce without any deviation.

Based on the information collected from researchers over the years, Zhong Yang clarified this idea: Since many of the researchers' achievements are difficult to completely ensure consistency with the initial experimental environment due to interference from multiple factors, so it is impossible to guarantee that they can't be guaranteed. Then he should think of a way to record all the operating links of the tester with an automatic instrument. Then drive the robot to reproduce the entire experimental step in a complete manner.

The data transmitted by various instruments in the laboratory are ensured that the robot can be completely faithful to the initial test from the accuracy of processing, force strength, angle, etc. The completion of the first robot is equivalent to the robot that meets the requirements of the entire laboratory, and is completed.

Zhong Yang wanted to leave the sample robot and personally took it to the smart factory. A month later, he brought back five robots that met the requirements of a laboratory. This was the first time that two completely different research departments inside and outside the subspace were joined together for the first time.

Then, a practical trial was conducted. The researchers wore a specially made record coat and conducted a simple experiment in a special laboratory.

A few minutes later, the experimental robot reproduced its entire process, including when he was in the experiment, he felt itchy and scratched his butt, causing all the engineers involved to laugh. The test results were satisfactory. In this small experiment, the robot completely reproduced the experiment and achieved the exact same results.

Since then, the simulation test has gradually deepened, and the complexity of the experiment has gradually increased. The difficulty of the simulation of the robot has also increased.

In the subsequent deepening and strengthening experiments, the robot also made a lot of mistakes, mainly because it made mistakes in reading data from various instruments. The robot's judgment is very rigid, and all conditions must be the same as the original test, otherwise it will refuse to be executed downward. The computer software department repeatedly pondered the problems and improved and optimized its program judgment. The priority levels of various data are also re-formulated as the basis for robot judgment.

It took another two or three months to debug, and the robot's movements became more and more perfect, and it was consistent with the original test. After many tests, Lu Yongheng, Tang Yunsong and others, who were in charge of leading the team, finally announced that the special test could be put into use!

This was a whole year and a half ahead of their original expectations!

The perfect performance of the robot made everyone look forward to it. Once the special laboratory was put into use, it immediately showed amazing results. After the members of the optical brain project team completed the experiment in this super-large laboratory, the controller selected two of the most perfect experimental records and entered the robot's main control program.

The subsequent trial run made everyone ecstatic - one set of experiments was successful, and the experimental results obtained were exactly the same as the initial one! And the other set of experiments had only a little difference in the results!

The testers, including the original testers, were far inferior to the robot when repeating the two tests! The main controller quickly called out the testers' test records and analyzed each step in the operation.

Since each operation step has a complete test data record, it took only two or three days to find the location where the subsequent test failed and immediately adjusted and improved.

In the past, there was only one successful test record, but now in the special laboratory, a chance can be turned into a certain inevitable at any time and thus reproduced!

The researchers tried to apply it to other aspects and immediately achieved ecstatic success.

For example, microelectronics operations allow researchers to create an electronic component that meets the requirements, but it is very possible for each component to maintain the same quality. But now in special laboratories, this impossible becomes possible.

By calling the same successful operating program, its success rate suddenly jumped to 70 to 80%, which is unimaginable! The success of the special laboratory alarmed other research departments franchise within the Industrial and Economic Union.

Before each experiment, countless researchers came to observe, and looked at the operation of the experimental robot, and all the testers were amazed. When they saw its final operation results, almost every researcher who came to watch had a shimmering eyes.

The head of the optoelectronics department came, and the head of the computer department, including Xiao Jin from the automation department, also rubbed Zhong Yang every day, hoping to equip them with such a special laboratory.

This is so convenient! Many repetitive operations can be completely handed over to the special laboratory for completion.

They are all looking forward to the future test personnel, their daily work, are to sit in the main control room, choose one successful test operation data record after another, and copy it to the robot's control system. The ones who were troubled by it in the past will perfectly reproduce the successful test, but now no one is worried about it.

With this treasure in hand, the research efficiency of Hualian's internal research team has suddenly increased by several times!

After analyzing these perfect experimental steps, data, and comparing failed experiments, researchers can quickly find the crux of the problem and put forward suggestions for improvement. The world's experimental process rushed to the fast lane and achieved success after success at an incredible speed!

What surprised Lu Yongheng and others even more was that with the help of Zhong Yang, the expenses spent on setting up a special laboratory were only fifteen percent higher than the original laboratory!

Who doesn't want such a good thing?

As soon as they saw the results of the special laboratory, all research departments immediately sent snowflake-like applications, requiring the construction of the special laboratory.

The smile that once disappeared from the faces of members of the photonic computer project team also came back. Faced with the perfect performance of the special laboratory, each project team member was full of confidence in success.

Just as the whole group regained their confidence, Lu Yongheng and the project team carried out the last preliminary preparation for the production of photoelectric hybrid computer samples: the production of forty-core processor chips.

Zhong Yang also looked at this sense of accomplishment with a smile. Smart factories are not suitable for being exposed to the public's sight. It is time to start building a core research institution on the ground.

In places like subspace where there are restrictions everywhere, and because of loyalty concerns, they dare not expand their scientific research and technical teams on a large scale. All research institutes have projects that they must be responsible for, and they are simply too busy. Now there is finally a good pilot that can be used as an expansion model in the future.
