I Am the President of the University

Latest website: "The battery life of smart glasses is also a problem. "

"If traditional lithium-ion batteries are used to supply MR smart glasses, the battery life will even be shorter than Microsoft's HoloLens..." Zhu Chen looked embarrassed.

Microsoft's HoloLens is a head-mounted display, and the usable space is quite large, but even so, the battery life is only about three hours.

The electronic components of smart glasses are all concentrated on the two temples, and the usable space is far inferior to that of a head-mounted display. Otherwise, why Microsoft chose a head-mounted display instead of glasses in developing MR technology, this is naturally considered.

The smaller the space, the higher the difficulty.

Moreover, unlike headsets, glasses have more daily attributes, which puts higher requirements on battery life.

It needs at least 8 hours of battery life, which would be better if it could be charged once a day, but the narrow space simply cannot meet this condition.

Chen Hao understood what Zhu Chen meant and what he was worried about.

He patted Zhu Chen on the shoulder and affirmed: "Don't worry about the lithium-air battery. I believe in Professor Bunir's ability, and you should believe it too."

If lithium-air batteries cannot be miniaturized and used in MR smart glasses, even if they realize other functions perfectly, they will become a useless electronic product.

Who would accept smart glasses that only last about an hour?

Isn’t this nonsense… Some office workers’ commutes take much longer than an hour.

Traditional lithium-ion batteries simply cannot meet the requirements of smart glasses. Only the excellent performance of lithium-air batteries can solve the battery life problem.

Zhu Chen glanced at Chen Hao and hesitated to speak.

Principal, this is a lithium-air battery!

Who gave you such confidence?

Zhu Chen and Jin Zhihui looked at each other and had the same idea.

What else can we do? We can only hope that Professor Bunier can conquer lithium-air battery technology as soon as possible.

This topic could only be skipped, and Zhu Chen asked the next question: "By the way, there is also the chip problem of smart glasses..."

“The chip is easy!”

Chen Hao said easily: "The localization of optical cores is progressing well. It will be almost completed in two to three months. At that time, I will arrange a team to develop optical cores suitable for smart glasses."

What Zhu Chen wants to develop are real smart glasses, not those "toys" developed under the guise of smart glasses.

Since it is not a toy, the computing requirements are quite high. 5g technology + optical core can perfectly solve this problem. Fortunately, it is relatively stable.

"The other problem is the sound."

"Sound problem? What should I say?"

"For example, system prompts, listening to music, answering calls, etc., all require sound. There are currently two sounds in the laboratory. One is based on Microsoft's HoloLens, using external speakers + Bluetooth headsets; the other is in A bone conduction earphone module is added to the temples.”

"In this regard, the laboratory has not yet reached a consensus." Zhu Chen said with a headache.

The former does not take up much space and does not pose high technical difficulties, but it is troublesome. In addition to wearing smart glasses, users must also add a wireless headset;

The latter takes up volume and also involves bone conduction technology and sound effects. The advantage is that you don’t need to wear an extra headset.

As for bone conduction technology, it has emerged in recent years and is mainly used in sports headphones.

Bone conduction is a sound conduction method that converts sound into mechanical vibrations of different frequencies, and transmits sound waves through the human skull, bony labyrinth, inner ear lymph, spiral organ, auditory nerve, and auditory center.

Here we can also take the famous musician Beethoven as an example.

As a famous musician, Beethoven became deaf the day after tomorrow, but even so, it did not affect his creation of great works.

When Beethoven was playing, he bit a stick in his mouth and touched the piano body, which transmitted the vibration to the brain and heard the music.

This actually uses the principle of bone conduction.

It’s just that bone conduction technology does not want in-ear headphones and headphones to be mature. There are two major problems: sound leakage and sound quality.

Many of these problems have gradually been solved with the development of the times.

"Which one do you two support?"

"Bone conduction."

"I also agree with bone conduction."

Jin Zhihui and Zhu Chen have the same opinion.

Chen Hao smiled and said, "Then what are you still struggling with? Let's add bone conduction technology."

"There are two good companies in China for bone conduction headphones: Nanka and Shaoyin. Then we can choose to cooperate with each other to solve the sound effect problem." After receiving Chen Hao's approval, Zhu Chen felt much happier.

After all, he and Jin Zhihui were too young and not qualified enough to suppress the different voices of the institute and Guanghua Research Institute (USA).

"What is the market value of these two companies?" Chen Hao suddenly asked.

"Market value?"

Zhu Chen was confused and replied uncertainly: "It seems that these two companies have not been listed on the market. I don't know the specific valuation."

A researcher nearby shouted.

"Principal, the latest valuation of Shaoyin Technology exceeds 500 million." (The specific valuation cannot be found, fictional)

"500 million?"

Chen Hao looked at a young researcher and smiled warmly, "Is the unit Dr. Xu mentioned in RMB or US dollars?"

Hearing Chen Hao call his last name, the young researcher was shocked. After realizing it, he was very excited. The boss actually remembered his name.

There are so many people in the Intelligent Industry Research Institute, so Chen Hao certainly won't remember them all. He just used his insight skill to check them temporarily.

Unexpectedly, the effect was not bad.

"It's RMB!"

After hearing that the unit was RMB, Chen Hao smiled.

Turning around to face Zhu Chen and Jin Zhihui, he smiled faintly: "RMB 500 million is quite cheap. There is no need to cooperate, just buy it directly."

Bone conduction headphones are a good development direction. Even if it is acquired at a premium, it will not exceed 1 billion yuan.

It’s only six to seven billion, not expensive.

But all the researchers present were stunned.

What the hell kind of talk is this!

500 million yuan is quite... cheap...

These are five small goals. How many people will never earn 10 million in their lifetime, let alone 500 million.

Even Zhu Chen was shocked. As expected of the principal, he was still so domineering.

500 million yuan = 97.578 billion won.

He can easily throw away 500 million. Which private university president in the world has this kind of capital...

For a moment, Professor Jin felt very pleased that he had chosen to join Guanghua University.

As for the latter question, it’s not a big problem.

Except for the two major problems of MR smart glasses, chip and battery life, which cannot be solved for the time being, other software and hardware problems are okay.

As for optical display technology, interactive technology, etc., they can all be solved slowly. \b

Chen Hao stayed at the Intelligent Industry Research Institute until lunch time, and went to the cafeteria with Zhu Chen and Jin Zhihui to eat.

It was because of Chen Hao's appearance in the morning that it caused an uproar among the researchers.

MR smart glasses technology is not a simple technological product. It is undoubtedly difficult to develop this with the technical reserves and environment of Guanghua University.

Especially as time goes by, the laboratory has made few breakthroughs, many people have become shaken, and they have begun to think about quitting.

But things are different now.

On the edge of Qiuzhen Lake.

Two doctors with worrying hairlines were arguing about something.

Both of them are researchers in the MR smart glasses laboratory.

ps: Try to stabilize the latest updates. The data is really bad. It would be great if the big guys can give me some free recommendation votes!
