--Remember!

Holker looked at the aircraft in front of him and smiled with satisfaction.--./--./--Remember!

China has already nodded, and preparations on Holker's side have already begun.

The factory can be built soon.

But before that, Holker already had a product...

Besides the laser sword, what is the most awesome prop in "Star Wars"? Of course it is the lightning-fast one-man flying motorcycle.

This is the product of Holker.

The inspiration for this thing is the suspended aircraft that the Jedi Knights ride in "Star Wars".

This thing is similar to that kind of aircraft. The maximum height in the air is about 4.5 meters. The power for flying comes from two large disc fans below. The rotation of the two fans generates upward airflow to lift the motorcycle into the air. It is natural to be able to fly in the air.

The most popular selling point of this motorcycle, but more importantly, is that it is very easy to drive this "flying motorcycle", "as easy as riding a bicycle", this is Holker's emotion after the experience.

The "flying motorcycle" underwent a series of tests in the Mojave Desert. This motorcycle can reach a speed of 48 kilometers per hour.

There are two handles on this kind of personal aircraft, which can be held by hand to adjust the driving speed and height. At the same time, the flying motorcycle has a built-in sensing device. When a person drives on it, he can use the change in the center of gravity caused by the tilt of the body to change the direction of the flying motorcycle.

.

Research on similar aircraft has been going on for a long time, but all ended in failure. The bottleneck they encountered was that they could not solve the problem of stability, and the driving behavior was very dangerous. The development of this project was successive, but none of them achieved complete success.

success.

Even after the computer was put into use, this was still the case, and even their problems were not solved at all.

But Holker and his colleagues used the simplest method to solve this most difficult problem.

——A new mechanical control system. For this system, in the rotation of three different axes: yaw, roll, and pitch, it seizes the transformation between each pair and uses aerodynamics to offset the driver's movements.

The impact of activities on the stability of the aircraft, this is it. Everything is simple and convenient, and it is safer than a bicycle when you are familiar with it...

Holker is very optimistic about this thing.

Since it is a vehicle that does not come into contact with the ground, it can be used in environments such as rainforests where traditional means of transportation are difficult to pass, especially in the military. Compared with airplanes, "flying motorcycles" are light and agile.

, able to travel through canyons between trees.

Although I originally studied this thing, it was because Holker didn't want to be idle without a factory, and some of these people were unwilling to work in China. Holker simply established a R&D department in the United States. As a result, they concentrated on

So I tinkered with this thing.

Holker is full of confidence in this. He is ready to use this technology to continue development. If he can make this flying motorcycle famous, his company may become famous all of a sudden. Fame is a good thing...

…

…

As for Catherine, she was already lying on the hospital bed at this time, waiting for Jenny to continue the experiment.

"We first need to scan the operation of your brain and study the frequency of your brain waves. In this way, we will be able to meet the operation requirements in the simplest way..."

This is not an RPG where you can travel around the world with just one keyboard. What Catherine needs is perfect and complete control, and she also needs to be immersed in the scene. So this will definitely be very complicated.

"Hmm...what's there to study about my brain?"

I've seen it last time, and there's nothing different about Catherine's brain from ordinary people.

"By the way, another very important point is how we transfer the signals from your brain from your body to the puppet..."

In order to prevent Catherine from believing it, Jenny put a helmet on Catherine's head, and then pointed to a rocker in front: "You can try to control this."

"...?"

Catherine didn't understand.

However, as Catherine thought about it, she discovered that the rocker actually moved!

"this……?!"

Brain control?!

"This is my inspiration for brain-computer interfaces."

Jenny said this.

(Fortunately, you did not understand brain-computer interface as intubation in the back of the head...)

Catherine complained silently in her heart.

"It can obtain bioelectric signals through sensors. Based on these signals, the computer can turn them into instructions and send the corresponding instructions to the electronic wire control system."

Jenny explained this.

"I named this system 'Human Controlled'. What do you think, Kate?"

"The name is very cool, but is that all it is?"

Catherine would like to see better results.--Remember!

Jenny shrugged: "Although we have ways to obtain bioelectric signals, Kate, you have to know that translating these signals is a very difficult task. Unless a supercomputer is used, current computer chips cannot handle such complex thinking at all.

.”

It sounds like science fiction, but it is not, because in the 21st century, humans already have a brain-controlled driving system - of course, it just has no application.

"Moreover, everyone's thinking mode is different. In particular, we found that men and women are very different, and there are many possible results of a command. In addition, for people who speak different languages

, there are also different results..."

So it has to be specially customized for Catherine.

Catherine nodded, understanding.

"Speaking of which, how far has your research progressed?"

Catherine asked again.

"We can basically control it a little... Well, just in time, I'll ask Rebecca to come over and give it a try!"

Jenny called out Rebecca.

Catherine looked at it, and luckily, Rebecca was not intubated from the back of her head.

"Don't look at it, Kate. I have no plans to modify the human body. Modifying the human body is not a simple matter. I have no plans yet."

Jenny said this.

"Oh. That's good."

Although Rebecca has been in many troubles, and although she was a spy in the past, no matter what, Rebecca has known Catherine and the others for so long, and Rebecca has completely lost the consciousness she once had.

So at this time, Catherine still felt that it was good to have Rebecca... Well, in fact, it was like Catherine hoping that her big cat would not be killed by others.

"A functional magnetic resonance imaging machine is very expensive, but this is a good thing we specially customized..."

Jenny had Rebecca lie down on the fmri.

"FMRI can detect Rebecca's brain activity in real time, and then transmit his thoughts to the computer. The computer uses software to translate these thoughts into digital instructions. The instructions are passed to this -" Jenny pointed to the black one placed aside.

The arm, this arm is almost the same as a human arm, except that the skin of this thing is black, and there are many metal wires coming out of it, so it looks artificial at a glance.

"In this way, you can control the movement of the robot arm... Rebecca!"

Jenny shouted, and Rebecca nodded at this time.

Then the fingers moved!

Really in control!

Catherine became excited, which meant that her plan was one step closer!

"This is not a problem for us at all, and although there are difficulties in reception, it can still be done through special tights and electrical signal simulation... I plan to integrate the tights and membrane into one, so that it can be eliminated

Go to the trouble of putting on and taking off.”

Jenny's words made Catherine very happy.

"That's it!"

After thinking about it, Catherine asked again: "Can the membrane still become transparent?"

Although it is good to strengthen the skin film, Catherine does not want to wear black skin every day.

Although it looks very good, it seems a bit too... avant-garde.

"Rebecca's hand recovered?"

Catherine noticed that Rebecca seemed to have a hand again.

"Well, now it's time to experiment with the changes in the legs."

"Legs...?"

Catherine looked at Jenny strangely.

"Yes, unlike ordinary brain-controlled robotic legs, the robotic leg used by Walter does not require any electrodes to be implanted in the brain, just like the robotic arm... Well, this one is the latest. Our previous robotic arms all

electrodes are required, and Rebecca's foot underwent targeted-muscle-re

Innervation), directional muscle nerve transplantation is equivalent to redeploying the nervous system between the prosthetic limb and the body, allowing the mechanical leg to become a part of Rebecca's body very naturally... and at the muscle interface, this mechanical leg also contains blood.

And the muscle layer on the surface, so you can’t tell it’s a prosthetic limb from the outside..."

Catherine looked at Rebecca's legs, but she didn't find out which prosthetic leg it was.

"Both are fake."

Jenny smiled mysteriously, and then placed Rebecca's legs under the scanner.

"Now this thing has been integrated with Rebecca's body... Yeah. But these are indeed prosthetic legs."

Catherine looked at the MRI images and found that the internal structure was indeed very strange!

"It's really not a human leg..."

Catherine murmured.

"Yes, it's false."

Jenny nodded.

"Also, the puppet I gave you is going to use this product. Kate, your hematopoietic stem cells can indeed survive outside their original environment. This gives us a great advantage, at the level of muscles and blood.

, we can completely simulate it.”

"By the way, can we put in a nuclear battery?"

Catherine hasn't given up yet!

"Do you really want a nuclear battery?!"

Jenny rolled her eyes, yes, I learned it from Catherine.

"Nuclear batteries, what an advanced technology this is, why not?"

"I think if you want to develop this technology, you might as well support me in developing a brain-computer interface. If the back of the head is connected to the computer, we can even use the brain to build a supercomputer matrix network. In this case, we will have a

Super, super, super computer, isn’t that great?”

"Don't talk to me about computers! I want energy! Energy! Energy!"

Back then, Catherine was fighting for computers. But as her status changed, Catherine's thoughts also changed.

Computers have changed from the mainstream in Catherine's life to a supplement, and being the mastermind behind the scenes has become Catherine's interest... This world is so unprofessional.

"Kate, you are obsessed."

Jenny's tone was somewhat similar to Elsa's.

Catherine pouted.

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Speaking of which...Kate, I was wondering if I could activate the alternating protein gene in others. Maybe that would be interesting?"

"Can it be activated on others?"

Catherine was curious.

Elsa nodded.

"Perhaps you have heard of double-blind experiments?"

"Double-blind...? No, I mean, double-blind experiment?"

Catherine asked strangely.

"Double-blind testing" originated from the "Pepsi Challenge" between Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola in 1972.

In 1972, a North American soft drink survey showed that 18% of people drank only Coca-Cola and 4% drank only Pepsi. But by the early 1980s, the proportion had changed. Coca-Cola accounted for 12% and Pepsi accounted for 11%. So,

PepsiCo conducted a test called the Pepsi Challenge. The challenge was conducted in the form of a taste test. In stores, shopping malls and other public places, Pepsi staff set up a table.

There are two unlabeled cups, one containing Pepsi and one containing Coca-Cola. Shoppers are invited to try two Cokes and choose which one they prefer. Then, the staff will tell you which cup is Pepsi and which is Coca-Cola.

In this way, the cup testers can know which one they like better. As a result, 57% chose Pepsi and 43% chose Coca-Cola. The blind test results showed that Pepsi tastes better than Coca-Cola. This is a double-blind experiment.

"It's normal that you don't know, because this is a case this year. Well, it's from Coca-Cola and Pepsi."

This is indeed what happened!

Things are ahead of schedule again!

“More people like the taste of Pepsi-Cola, but why do more people choose Coca-Cola than Pepsi?”

"When I learned about this case, I teamed up with some hospitals to conduct such a survey in the past few months."

"Let me just talk about what a double-blind study is. We are in a randomized double-blind study, a placebo-controlled experiment of drug treatment. Some of the participants receive the real treatment, and others receive a placebo treatment, that is, a "placebo."

Before the results come out, neither the researchers nor the participants know who is receiving real treatment and who is receiving sham treatment, that is, they are all 'blind'. Who is arranged to receive real treatment and who is arranged to receive sham treatment is completely random.

It's even determined by tossing a coin..."

"Fake effects are those processes that lead to symptomatic relief through suggestion. In the first month of the study, a serious mistake was made in distinguishing between fake effects - the doctors were confused because the effects were almost similar.

!”

The effect of false treatment can also be called the placebo effect after translation.

"My guess is that, in fact, both doctors and patients are fooled by this false treatment. For example, surgeons often believe that arthroscopic surgery is actually effective in treating arthritis and perform hundreds of it every year.

Thousands of surgeries like this. Then, a double-blind study actually came up with this result: the 'therapeutic effects' produced by sham surgery and real surgery are exactly the same!"

There was some sarcasm on Jenny's face: "In our experiment, the patients who received the fake treatment were so satisfied with the treatment effect that they suggested that other patients also receive this treatment! You know, those who actually had the surgery were actually

It’s not recovering well!”

So strange.

"It's like bloodletting."

Jenny added: "In the Middle Ages when people generally believed that bloodletting was effective, this therapy was very effective. Why? Because this bloodletting treatment method is authoritative enough, it is a placebo effect. But now, people

People generally don’t trust this kind of placebo, so this kind of placebo loses its effect.”

What's going on with this horse?

Catherine was messy in the wind.

"This research cost us more than ten million, but it was not in vain. Kate, I believe you will have a better idea after listening to what I said."

"In our double-blind study of 289 patients with low back pain at another hospital, chiropractic therapy was very effective. But it was not as effective as introducing patients to read an educational brochure about low back pain. In our experiment

, 67% of the patients with buttock pain in the controlled experiment can produce effects through acupuncture treatment. However, this rate of therapeutic effects is not higher than the rate of therapeutic effects in the control group by randomly inserting acupuncture in any part of the body..."

Acupuncture has become very popular in the United States in the past few years, but I didn’t expect that Jenny would still use it for fun.

"Including drugs such as antibiotics. We have all done bad experiments, and the results show that the effects are similar. At least the fake treatment effect does bring real benefits to the patients. Even though there is no effect at all, the fake treatment will also create

Many hallucinations that are indeed curative came out..."

"Even if the fake treatment doesn't actually make any difference in symptoms, people will reinterpret their symptoms or say they are less severe to experience. For example, if I give you a pill to take and I say it will make

Your cough is less severe. You will feel it after taking the medicine. Indeed, your cough is not so severe. Even if the frequency of your cough does not change, you will feel this way. In other words, you will feel that way in a certain way.

Reinterpret the symptoms you are experiencing to see that they are 'really better'."

Jenny thought for a while and said: "This situation should be better called observation bias."

"Observation bias affects doctors most, not patients. If a doctor thinks he is prescribing some "effective medicine" to his patient, when they return to visit the patient, they will observe some improvement, even if it has no effect.

The effect can be seen. A classic example is a new treatment combination that is effective in fighting multiple sclerosis.

A comparison between effectiveness and false treatment. This is a double-blind study, so the doctors responsible for evaluating the results are kept in a state of ignorance about who received the real treatment and who received the false treatment, that is, they are in a "blind" state

.However, some experimenters played some tricks. They deliberately let some doctors know who was receiving treatment, so that they

In the "non-blind" state, the results are a bit surprising. Doctors in the "non-blind" state are more likely to "observe" the treatment effect than doctors in the impartial "blind" state. And those who are

The observed "effective treatment" was actually a false treatment. In other words, the "unblinded" doctors expected it because they saw

Seeing the results creates more illusions of "effective treatment". Because this phenomenon indicates some kind of "professional objectivity", I say it is surprising. This also implies that when we evaluate an execution

When it comes to doctors' treatment effects, compared with the results of double-blind studies, the judgment of doctors is more unreliable."

"Selection bias is also a finding of our study. When conducting research, researchers choose who receives real treatment and who does not receive real treatment. In other words, researchers may subconsciously tend to choose those who can see the expected effect.

Conduct experiments on new medical treatments. For some unknown reason, the evaluation of effective treatments chosen in this way is so huge that it will be 7 times higher than the normal evaluation. Even a completely ineffective treatment will be evaluated as one

A treatment that is clearly useful. This is why double-blind studies must be conducted in a randomized manner."

"There are many diseases that will get better on their own as a "natural process." Therefore, when such a disease first occurs, it seems that any treatment is effective, and the treatment method used by the doctor will also experience a processing illusion.

, that is, to create the feeling that the treatment is effective without thinking about it. A telling example is neck pain and back pain: they may get better on their own over time, regardless of the treatment, in fact any kind of treatment.

Everything seems to be working.”

"Based on these factors, I have reason to believe that this seems to be related to a certain part of our human body's genes. I suspect this part is the same as yours, Kate..."

"It's actually completely different..."

Catherine complained.

She also knows about the placebo effect.

Although miraculous, this placebo effect is indeed puzzling, but this is completely different from Catherine's genes.

"Why can't other people activate this gene?"

Speaking of which, Catherine also wanted to see what would happen in the end if someone else could activate this gene?

She is looking forward to it...

…

Two in one.

In addition, we originally wanted to develop high technology!

Technology that transcends reality is interesting! Otherwise, what would be the point of Kate simply controlling Millikin...

Well, it’s best to read it at 12:10. I’ll revise the next 1k words. It seems like there’s too much water, so I’ll add some more information... (Your support on this website.com is my biggest motivation.)
