Help all mankind

There are some differences in the process of swapping the prizes this time. After clicking the icon of the universal editor at home, it did not transfer, but an electronic map appeared in front of my eyes.

Following the map, I went to a corner where I found something like a USB flash drive wrapped in a transparent square box.

Liang Shicheng reached out to pick them up together, and the transparent packaging quickly fell apart.

First took the U disk and wiped the dust on it, and then found a small bag to put the other powders away.

It took less than two hours to get this so-called universal editor, and returned home to study with peace of mind.

First of all, it is indeed a U disk, which has a capacity of 2T on the computer and supports USB3.0.

After checking the mass production software, the function is normal, and the stored movie can also be played normally after being taken out. Obviously its function should not be this.

Then I began to study its appearance. There was a physical button. I didn't dare to press it before I didn't know the function.

Finally found a key position, there is a sliding cover that can be opened, after the opening, a lens and a viewfinder similar to an old camera appear.

Liang Shicheng immediately guessed that the function of the physical button was the shutter for taking pictures, so he pressed it boldly, only to hear a click, which roughly confirmed his judgment.

Then he plugged the USB flash drive into the computer, and no photos were added to it, which again negated the idea that the USB flash drive was used to take pictures.

Then Liang Shicheng closed his eyes and entered the system interface, hoping to find any clues, but did not find an introduction to the function of the U disk, but found such a paragraph in the science and technology tree.

Successfully swapped universal editor (primary)

Read the information by shooting.

The current status can only be read, not edited.

Gain editing capabilities through upgrades.

Perhaps it is necessary to photograph certain objects?So Liang Shicheng took photos of various items in his home, and went back to the computer to check each time, and there was no change.

Until the cat was shot inadvertently, the cat also noticed him, and took an elegant cat step, walking towards him.

This time, after reinserting the USB flash drive into the computer, a TXT file appeared with a size of dozens of KB.

Opening the document, Liang Shicheng found a lot of neat programs. He immediately guessed that TXT files will be generated only when the creatures are photographed.

That is to say, the function of this so-called universal editor is used to edit genes. The content of the genes can be captured and transformed into TXT files that programmers can understand.

But after thinking about it for a while, I felt that there was a problem again. A cat's gene shouldn't be described with a data volume of tens of KB.

Then he looked at the content of the document carefully. As an experienced and experienced programmer, or more accurately a software engineer, he couldn't understand the logic of the above for a while.

First, the corresponding library file is needed to run a section of program. After copying and pasting this section of program directly on the computer, it cannot be run directly after changing it to BAT format.

But Liang Shicheng, who develops drones, can easily guess that this file is used to direct the operation of certain machinery and equipment.

After that, he began to analyze the not-so-large document. The process seemed to be as if he couldn't figure out the meaning of certain words and did the reading comprehension of the English test. It took a full afternoon.

Liang Shicheng has basically figured out the content of the documents, these are documents describing how the cat controls the body when walking on the catwalk.

He concluded that the current function of this USB flash drive, which is called the universal editor, is to take a picture of the creature doing something, and then it will be generated in the USB flash drive, which is executed when the creature does this action. program.

In order to verify this idea, the next day he took pictures of many animals, including people.

And came to this rule. First of all, the universal editor currently cannot capture the thinking and ideas of people and animals, but if a person or animal is doing something that instinctively does not need to think, their cerebellum will execute a Series programs, the universal editor can capture this program.

Thinking of this, Liang Shicheng was overjoyed, although there is no simulator corresponding to this program, it is not possible to directly see the operation of the programs in these documents.

But for programmers at his level, this is not a problem. As long as he can understand the logic of programming, he can manually convert these programs into various forms that he needs for his own use.

Then he boldly took the U-disk-shaped camera and pointed it at the telegraph pole outside the window to take pictures. He waited for dozens of minutes, and finally waited for the scene he dreamed of. A person was looking at the phone intently. He bypassed the telephone pole, and at that moment Liang Shicheng pressed the shutter.

So he got a set of program documents on how to control the feet while walking, plus a set of program documents on how to control the body to avoid telephone poles.

These seem to be very easy, but in fact it is not that simple to really want to write a program.

First of all, there are so many joints on the human body. How to control these joints so that people do not fall during walking is a difficult problem, otherwise the development of walking robots will not be so difficult.

Similarly, how to ensure that they do not fall during the dynamic process of avoiding the poles is also a problem.

This type of problem always gives people a feeling that it is easy to get used to it, but for engineers, it is a problem of great research value.

Particularly difficult is how people can use the peripheral vision of their eyes to judge that they might hit a telephone pole and when they should avoid it.

Liang Shicheng, who is a software engineer, doesn't know this problem because their drone uses a laser rangefinder to solve this problem.

Humans do not have a laser rangefinder, but they can do this. Just through the 2D graphics of the eyes, they can accurately calculate the position of the telegraph pole and oneself. In the most accurate time, with the most correct posture to avoid, this Behind it is a mysterious program in the brain at work.

Liang Shicheng turned on the computer and understood the operating logic of this program, and immediately wrote a guidance report on the improvement of the company's drone products. He now has an idea to optimize products and reduce costs by imitating biology.

At this moment, when cars roared past the road, he had another idea and took a picture of the drivers.

Then an idea was born, and it was time to prepare to enter the field of driverless cars.

PS includes the question of how people walk and how to avoid obstacles. In fact, it is not simple. I will not write it in the main text. I wrote it in the related work to introduce it in detail. Extended reading 2, if you are interested, you can read it.

In the future, the popular science knowledge will be taken as much as possible in the main text. Except for the story which is very related to the plot, a large section of popular science will be included in the works.

Especially those who find it difficult to walk and avoid obstacles, why do engineers need to study this kind of problem readers recommend it.
