Digital Life (Absolut01) - Chapter 77

[seventy – seven.]

During the May Day holiday, even if the work is busy, Digital Totem still gives all employees a full seven-day holiday except for the necessary left-behind personnel.

While everyone was discussing where to go to corruption, the people who were selected to participate in the spider lite test during the May Day were very excited.

A total of 6 further modified Spider lites were produced at the Jinqiao factory after the decision to go on an outdoor test and vacation.

After the six spider lites were off the assembly line, Lu Zhenyu announced that if there were no problems in the test, the improved version of this spider lite would be finalized and produced as a search and rescue model for mountain expeditions.

The improved version of this spider lite is called spider walker.

The Walker model uses a slightly more powerful motor than the lite model, but the motor is smaller.

This type of motor is taken directly from the military factory, and it has obvious advantages compared with the best civilian-level motor used by the original lite.

The walker model has an improved cockpit, changing the original single cockpit to a double cockpit, adding off-road spotlights and a winch in the front of the cockpit, and a luggage rack at the rear.

On the basis of the original head-up display, a GPS positioning system and a car radio are added, and a set of programs is added to the main control program of the walker. This set of programs is very similar to the military data link, but the performance is much simpler. , and there is no strong confidentiality. It is purely an auxiliary method for sharing data between several walkers and maintaining contact with each other.

A small diesel generator is also installed in the spacious power compartment. After the fuel cell is exhausted After that, you can rely on this motor to run.

Although the capacity of the fuel tank is only 40 liters, it is absolutely no problem to run for a few hours.

After such a period of modification, the whole spider waiker looks very lively, more like a vehicle that can run on the road, rather than a future weapon made in the laboratory.

They sprayed the six walkers with black matt paint, and installed the blue dragon logo representing the digital totem laboratory made of titanium alloy scraps on the head, tail and side, and even had a lot of leisure in these logos. The surface is made of metal wire drawing process.

In this way, it seems that the entire spider walker is quite artistic and futuristic.

After carrying two people weighing 80 kg, the spider walker still has a load carrying capacity of 100 kg, and it is more than enough to bring a full set of field equipment and maintenance toolboxes.

Although the walker passed a series of tests such as dust blowing and mud soaking in the factory, the walker passed relatively smoothly, but I don’t know if there will be any problems in the field.

They are looking forward to the upcoming May Day holiday.

Because we have to take into account the vacation at the same time, the personnel arrangement this time is also very interesting.

In addition to Lu Zhenyu, Chen Ning naturally wanted to go, and Yang Zong and Ji Rong could only go with them, otherwise it would be unkind to leave them at home these days.

The director of the security department, Pang Hai, and two other security guards are responsible for the safety of the holiday.

The two security guards, in addition to their extremely strong combat effectiveness, are also experts in mechanical and electrical fields. If they are repairing in the field, they can also help.

The laboratory, led by Liu Yuanxia, took over the remaining 5 places. In addition to field supplies and maintenance toolboxes, they also brought a series of test tools. They will collect as much data as possible as a reference for future research and development. .

Except for Yang Zong, everyone was quite excited when they were preparing in an orderly manner.

On the other hand, Yang Zong was a little nervous in addition to his excitement.

Because the destination of this vacation and test trip

is the Meili Snow Mountain, which has a lofty status in the hearts of Tibetans.

They will directly airlift the six walkers and related equipment to Zhongdian.

Then take the route of Zhongdian-Deqin-Feilai Temple into the mountain.

This route has several advantages. The first is that the geological and landform environments that pass along the way are relatively rich, and the performance of the spider walker can be accumulated in various situations.

Secondly, as a classic vacation route, the scenery along the way is naturally no problem.

In Zhongdian, in the relatively prosperous places such as Deqin, they will send a working group to replace the spare fuel cell pack.

Although the on-board fuel cell stack can work for 60 hours at full load, that’s not necessarily enough.

And there is another purpose, that is, during the May Day holiday, many people will go out to travel, and there should be many outdoor sports enthusiasts who take this route.

Through these outdoor enthusiasts, the spider walker can be regarded as an advertisement.

Their advertising purpose is easily achieved.

At the airport in Zhongdian, when they drove six spider walkers from the back of the transport plane, they filed out in a row, and then began to check the mechanical performance of the spider walkers in all aspects, as well as field equipment and various testing equipment in full view.

Then they set off along the usual tourist route.

The silver Digital Totem Lab’s blue dragon logo gleams in the sun.

This logo appeared on the first batch of Zongheng home portable editions, and also appeared on the pet dog Bobo who caused a huge sensation at the cebit exhibition that just ended.

This logo represents the products in the research and development and testing stages of the digital totem laboratory. Once the product is officially finalized and produced, it will immediately be replaced by the Suzaku logo, which represents the expansion of the digital totem marketing market.

Because of this, the Qinglong logo has become one of the symbols representing China’s technological leadership in it in just one year.

The first few batches, the Zongheng home portable version with the Qinglong logo, now even have players specializing in high-priced collections.

And now, the Digital Totem Lab seems to surprise people again, and in a completely different field.

There is always a difference between insiders and outsiders.

To the uninitiated, the digital totem may feel that it has entered a field that seems completely different from it – manufacturing.

The insider can see how complex and advanced programs are needed to balance and control the six-legged vehicle in the form of hexapod stepping.

The absolute speed of the spider walker is not very high, at best 35 kilometers per hour, but from Zhongdian to Deqin, the road conditions are not very good, even if it is an ordinary car, it is very good to drive to a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. , most of which are up and down at 35 or 40 kilometers per hour.

This time, in order to observe these wonderful machines of digital totems up close, some tourists even deliberately slowed down the speed of their cars. Following the team of digital totems, some people continued to take out cameras and DVs to take pictures.

From Zhongdian to Deqin, the total distance is less than 200 kilometers. They started at 9:00 in the morning, stopped briefly on the side of the road for lunch at noon, and did not arrive at Deqin until 4:00 in the afternoon.

Although the journey is more difficult, the spider walker is much more comfortable than taking a car.

The smooth running characteristics of the spider platform are fully demonstrated on the road less than 200 kilometers.

What’s even more exciting is that Lu Zhenyu turned on the shadow follow function of this internal data link, so that the one led by all six spider walkers will follow the same route unless there is an emergency situation that needs to be avoided.

In this way, except for Liu Yuanxia, who was sitting on the first walker, it was more difficult, everyone was relaxed and could chat freely over the radio.

Some technicians even proposed that the internal data link be integrated with the online game function…

After arriving in Deqin, they did not stay in the hotel, but found an open space to camp.

This day’s journey was not a hard one. Since I had been traveling on the road, I did not test the spider walker’s performance on the mountain.

To everyone’s satisfaction, reliability issues seem to have been resolved on this simpler model, with all six spiders running for six hours without any issues.

After camping, Liu Yuanxia set off alone with a security guard and mechanic driving their spider.

They are going to run the route from Deqin to Yubeng Village to prepare for going into the mountains tomorrow.

This not-so-difficult mountain trail is also an opportunity for a good introductory test of the Spider’s mountain capabilities.

What would have been a 5 to 6 hour hike up the mountain, the spider did an excellent job of getting back and forth in less than an hour and a half.

Spider walkers are walking on the mountain road like walking on the ground, maintaining a speed of more than 25 kilometers per hour, and they don’t need to take the road that others have opened up, but turn over directly from the mountain.

When Liu Yuanxia drove a muddy spider walker back to the camp, he was already followed by a lot of envious outdoor sports enthusiasts.

“It seems… I overestimated the difficulty of making spiders. I didn’t expect to perform so well.” Lu Zhenyu said cheerfully during dinner.

If there is no problem with the spider walker in the past few days, then go back and directly finalize the production.

Just a little bit of enlargement can meet the minimum requirements of General Bai Qiang.

Even if this walker model is now equipped with some weapons, it will definitely have a very strong combat capability. At least in the mountains and jungles, those infantrymen who run on two legs are well-trained, and no matter the ace troops, it is impossible to run. Got the spider.

“Well, it’s just too stable, I can’t feel the ground, and I feel a little uneasy.” Liu Yuanxia said.

When driving a car, it is very important to feel the feedback from the road, but when operating a spider, this feeling is suddenly lost.

Smooth travel is more like playing a computer game.

“Okay, let’s go back and install the force feedback joystick… Just ask Logitech to order it, Mr. Lu.” A technician teased at the side.

In an empty camp, the Spider’s off-road spotlights provided ample lighting.

In this bright light, they set out the grill, and feasted on beer from the small refrigerator installed in the spider.

Lu Zhenyu flipped over the skewers on the barbecue while looking at Chen Ning, who was illuminated by the fire.

“Don’t look at me, that little beauty in Tokyo is waiting for you at home, don’t let them down.” Chen Ning gave him a sideways look.

After Lu Zhenyu came back from Tokyo, although Chen Ning didn’t show any signs of anger, but from time to time he brought this matter out to stimulate Lu Zhenyu, which really made Lu Zhenyu a little depressed.

Now, he and Chen Ning have basically figured out the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. Although the last step has not been exceeded, the relationship between the two is still close. It is really uncomfortable to be so stimulated.

Just when Lu Zhenyu was about to say something, Pang Hai suddenly stood up, stretched his hand into his arms, and pressed it on the pistol.

“Who is it?” Pang Hai shouted towards the darkness on one side.

“I haven’t seen each other for several years, and my alertness is still so high.” A slightly hoarse middle-aged voice came over.

From the darkness, a tall soldier came out wearing the latest domestic jungle camouflage training uniform that was just sent to the army this year, and gradually walked from the shadows to the large space illuminated by the spider’s spotlights.

“Captain!” Pang Hai shouted in surprise.

“Hehe, it’s me. I didn’t expect you to be here too. I transferred you away back then, but I really didn’t expect to meet again.” The person who came here is the strongest in China who is now conducting jungle and mountain combat training in the Yarlung Zangbo River Valley all the year round. The commander of the mountain division, the former captain of Pang Hai when he was in the special forces, Fei Ting.

Pang Hai happily introduced Lu Zhenyu and Chen Ning to Fei Ting.

Fei Ting took a few more glances at Lu Zhenyu, and then his attention was irresistibly focused on the spider walker parked beside him.

“I was in Kunming this morning for a meeting, and someone told me that there were a few strange machines here, which seemed to be very suitable for mountain operations. I just came to see if there was nothing in the army recently. I didn’t expect that it would still be here. I ran into you.” Fei Ting said to Pang Hai in a sigh.

“Captain, there is no way to do this. The tasks are connected one by one, so I don’t care to see you.” Pang Hai said a little embarrassedly.

“Mr. Lu… How is the performance of this thing?” Fei Ting asked Lu Zhenyu straight to the point after chatting with Pang Hai for a while.

“I don’t know, this time we are here to test this thing. But it took an hour and a half to travel to and from Yubeng Village. If the road is familiar, it should be faster.” Fei Ting was moved by the time Lu Zhenyu said. , No matter how powerful the special forces under his command are, they can’t go back and forth in 3 hours, after all, the distance is there.

Fei Ting observed the spider walker’s joints and power system with interest, reaching out to touch it from time to time.

He asked again: “This thing should run relatively quietly, I have seen the motor inside, it should be a military model, how did you get it?”

“This… Naturally, there is strong support from the military.” Lu Zhenyu said with a laugh.

Fei Ting nodded and said, “That is to say, there should be a military model? How much does this thing cost?”

“It has not yet been finalized. These are all engineering prototypes, but the cost is not low. The average cost is 550,000 yuan.”

Fei Ting’s division was originally one of the best equipped divisions in China, and there was even a battalion of troops that was used as a sample against foreign troops. UU Kanshu www.sonicmtl.com All Equipped with the most advanced weapons introduced.

The cost of 550,000 didn’t make Fei Ting feel too expensive, mainly because he, as a veteran special forces soldier and an excellent commander, can see the huge role that spider walkers can play in jungle and mountain warfare.

Soldiers who can only carry limited weapons in the jungle have higher mobility and better terrain adaptability if they are equipped with spider walkers, while spider walkers have considerable load capacity to carry heavier weapons and More ammunition, these will give soldiers more advantages and greater combat effectiveness.

“It’s a good thing, then I’ll have to wait for you to finalize the production. At that time, I’ll directly ask the above for funds and ask you to buy it.” Fei Ting said cheerfully.

“So you’re satisfied? Are we still testing?” Lu Zhenyu suddenly said with a change of heart.

“Oh?” Fei Ting was puzzled.

“I mean, this time we came out for testing and tourism. How about leaving two spider walkers for you when we go back? Go back, I’ll send another maintenance technical team here. These two things are considered gifts. You, but you are a local snake here, you have to help me give me the data of performance in various terrains. How about it? It won’t hurt you, right?”

“Okay, that’s it.” Fei As soon as the court heard that there was such a good thing, he immediately agreed.
