Chapter 86: no commercial value

Apart from caring about the safety of his relatives and friends, Peter can almost be said to have no selfishness.

And, because Peter didn't know that intracranial nerve signal sensing technology had fatal flaws.

Therefore, in his opinion, the neural arm project can actually make money.

Therefore, Peter did not understand why Mr. Erwin, who has always been very generous, was reluctant to invest in the neural arm project.

So Peter asked suspiciously:

"why?"

"This project has no commercial value, really, Peter, I won't lie to you.

I'm not a philanthropist, I'm a businessman, I have a big company to take care of, everyone in the company needs to eat, and everything needs to be spent.

So, I can't do this loss-making business.

And, Peter, I also don't recommend that you continue to spend your precious time and energy on this project, which is really hard to succeed. "

Naturally, such subjective reasons could not convince Peter.

He put a lot of effort into this project. To convince him to give up this project, he still needs more solid evidence from Leo.

Of course Leo knew this too, so he explained patiently:

"I said that this project has no commercial value, and it is not empty words.

The motives of this project are kind and correct, and the envisaged project goals are even more amazing.

But just because the project goal is too amazing, this project has two fatal shortcomings, both of which are reducing the commercial value of the project. "

Peter's attention was attracted by Leo's words, and even Otto raised his ears unconsciously, obviously wanting to hear what Leo had to say.

"The first disadvantage, so far, the neural arm has not been designed with a suitable energy source.

According to Dr. Octavius' original project goals, the neural arm needed to be able to perform very complex movements with speed and precision.

This requires that there must be enough powerful energy to support the nerve arm to complete these actions.

But right now, I can't think of any cheap portable energy sources that fit this bill.

We can't equip every nerve arm with a miniature nuclear reactor, so the cost of each nerve arm will be very expensive, and it can't be mass-produced at all, and few people can afford it.

And products that cannot be mass-produced have no commercial value to me at all! "

Both Peter and Otto nodded subconsciously, thinking that what Leo said made sense.

"The second disadvantage is even more fatal."

Leo walked to the workbench, picked up the sensor helmet, and said,

"There is something wrong with this helmet. There is a big problem. If ordinary people use this helmet for a long time, their personality will change greatly, and at worst, they will have amnesia and dementia!"

This time, Peter and Otto disagreed with Leo's point of view.

Especially Otto, he felt that Leo was questioning his research results, and said a little angrily:

"Mr. Erwin, the correctness of what you said is still open to question, and you may even say something.

I have done many experimental tests with this helmet, how come I don't feel any abnormality? "

"Is there really nothing unusual?"

Leo put the sensor helmet in his hand back on the workbench and said quietly,

"You might as well think about it carefully. Are you more easily out of control now than before? You are prone to anger, resentment, and even want to fight and kill?

In fact, your character has already begun to be sensed by the helmet...

To be precise, it was influenced by your invention of intracranial nerve signal sensing technology. "

"It's all because of a lot of upsets I've been through lately, and it's all because of that **** Norman Osborn."

Otto did realize that his emotions were easily out of control recently, but he did not think it was caused by the sensor helmet.

"As long as I think of that bastard, I think of all the injustices and grievances I have suffered in the past and now, which makes it easy to get angry.

This has nothing to do with sensor helmets. "

Peter was obviously more inclined to believe Otto's statement and interjected:

"Mr. Erwin, your reason just now was too far-fetched.

Just based on your subjective guess, not only Dr. Octavius, but even I can't believe your statement.

How on earth did you find out that the sensor helmet is so flawed? Do you have any objective evidence? "

Facing Otto and Peter's questioning at the same time, Leo didn't panic and remained calm.

"Peter, have you never used this intracranial nerve signal sensing helmet?"

Leo suddenly asked Peter a question, then picked up the helmet and handed it to Peter,

"Then why don't you put it on your head and experience it yourself. Once you experience it, you should understand why I came to the conclusion that there is a problem with the sensing helmet."

For various reasons, Peter did not personally use the sensor helmet. Every test was conducted by Otto himself with the helmet.

Leo knew from the annotations on the sensing helmet drawings that the stronger the mental power, the easier it is to discover the fatal problems of the sensing helmet.

Peter's mental power is naturally not weak, and at least he will have a mental resistance specialty above the primary level.

Therefore, Leo felt that if Peter personally used this sensor helmet, he should be able to feel something wrong from the sensor helmet.

seeing is believing.

As long as Peter discovered this himself, I believe he would naturally agree with Leo's statement.

Peter put the sensor helmet on his head suspiciously, and then experienced a wonderful feeling like "water and milk blending".

Peter experienced this feeling for the first time, and he was so immersed in a wonderful feeling that he couldn't even speak.

At the same time, under his command, the nerve arm was rapidly doing various movements with incredible precision.

Moreover, after a full five minutes, there was no distortion in the movements, and it was obvious that the transmission of nerve signals was still very stable.

After another minute or so, suddenly, Peter slammed the button beside his neck, and the sensor helmet automatically fell off and hung on Peter's neck.

woohoo...

Peter didn't know what was going on. He bent down and panted heavily, and even retched twice.

Otto quickly supported Peter, patted Peter's back lightly, trying to make Peter feel more comfortable, and asked with concern:

"Peter, are you okay? What happened?"

"Huh...huh...

There's something really wrong with this sensor helmet. "

Peter took off the helmet from his neck and threw it on the workbench with an unbelievable expression on his face.

"When I first put it on, I felt everything was normal, even better than usual.

But after a while, all kinds of bold ideas that I would never normally have come into my mind.

As if, as if it were trying to control my mind.

Mr. Erwin is right This 'intracranial nerve signal transmission technology' really has fatal problems. "

Otto can doubt Leo, but he will not doubt Peter, who has been his assistant for so long.

Otto couldn't be more clear about Peter's character, he wouldn't lie at all.

However, Otto did not feel any emotional abnormality while using the sensor helmet.

So Otto asked suspiciously:

"Really? But, I don't really feel anything when I put on the helmet?! Why does such a strange thing happen?!"

No one at the scene understood why better than Leo.

Because with the help of the system, Leo has long understood the working principle of "intracranial nerve signal sensing technology", even better than Otto, the inventor of this technology.

However, Leo could not explain all the technical principles to Otto and Peter.

Because according to common sense, Leo should not know so many theoretical details about sensing technology. Saying too much will expose Leo's biggest secret.

So, Leo could only simply say:

"That's because your mental power level is too weak to feel the subtle cognitive disturbances at the mental level.

Peter and I have relatively strong mental powers, so we can feel the slight distortion in our mental cognition before and after wearing the helmet. "

"Mr. Erwin, you mean mental power?! Are you serious? We are not writing novels, where does mental power come from!

You say that you are young, strong, energetic, and I can understand better than I can stay up late!

But can something like spirit really be so different that it can be divided into levels? "
