Chapter 147 Famous
Arthur and Matthew had a lot of fun. The rule was to adopt a simple three-game two-win system. In the end, Arthur's skill was slightly inferior, and he was eventually defeated by Matthew. In terms of the game, Matthew seemed to have a talent beyond ordinary people, and Arthur could not be compared with him at all.
In this game, learning from the previous experience of Tetris, Arthur specially added sound effects to it, adding a lot of fun.
The trajectory of table tennis is calculated using mathematical formulas, which is smooth and in line with the rules. When the ball leaps forward out of the boundary, it will send a signal to another calculator to transmit the [luck] movement state and trajectory of the ball to the calculator at that moment, so that the ball can appear in the display screen without blocking. Because the transmission rate is very fast, the smoothness of the whole game is guaranteed. It seems that I can't feel any stagnation in the middle.
After the whole game came out, the playability was more ideal than they had expected, which made Arthur and Matthew overjoyed. When they played the game, they even forgot to tell Lin Hong the good news at the first time.
Because they shouted just now, they attracted the attention of some students around them, and later they played there with two calculators, which aroused the curiosity of many people.
The first student ran over and saw the picture content in the calculator in their hands, and couldn't help shouting, "SO COOLI (so cool!).
A girl behindstood up and immediately shouted, "AMAZINGI (amazing!)"
Soon, everyone was attracted, surrounded by Arthur and Matthew, watching them play calculator table tennis.
Arthur and Matthew couldn't help playing more vigorously, and their movements even began to move with the movement of the ball.
Before, they had never been so eye-catching. They were only in the kind of forgotten crowd in the corner and never received the attention of others. Today, they finally did it. Everyone gathered around them and kept screaming.
This is the scene they have always dreamed of!
After Matthew won, some of his classmates who knew them began to inquire about the specific situation.
Arthur just wanted to explain their calculator cracking plan in detail, but Matthew stopped him.
"Our SAM team is working on a great project." Matthew shouted, "What you just saw is one of the results of our project. Of course, this is just a shooting..."
Matthew's eloquence began to play a role at this time. He took the opportunity to briefly introduce their SAM group to everyone, and then told everyone that they would announce their plans on the spot at the homecoming ball, so that everyone can look forward to it.
In order to let everyone take the initiative to help publicize, Matthew even asked several well-known students to try the "ping-pong game" on the spot. In everyone's shocked and curious eyes, the two of them packed up and quickly left.
At this time, everyone began to focus on the external calculator that they usually didn't pay much attention to. For the first time, they knew that in addition to doing mathematical calculations, they could also play games. Moreover, according to Matthew, there were many interesting functions that could be realized on it. They will turn the calculator into a portable computer!
The calculator can be turned into a computer!
The news soon spread in the Latin school. The students who saw the live demonstration in the computer room were telling others the facts they had seen, and those who had tried the table tennis game in person spared no effort to publicize it to their friends.
Soon, everyone learned the news that a newly formed group or community called "SAM" will announce an important plan at the back-to-school ball, which is related to the math calculator they usually use. Well, it seems to be related to computers.
American schools are like this. As long as one thing is cool and fresh enough, it will usually spread quickly all over the campus. The project carried out by the SAM team meets this standard.
Lin Hong's last class in the morning was "painting". The main reason why Lin Hong chose this course was that he was influenced by Leonardo da Vinci, a great painter. Because of this, he could describe in detail what he saw and thought of with his own brush.
Lin Hong also felt that mastering basic painting skills would be of great help to him. For example, when he drew circuit diagrams and the shape of components before, he felt a little difficult and felt that he should be able to draw better, but what he drew was not satisfactory.
After this class, Lin Hong's emphasis on painting was raised to another level, because the teacher specially put forward a topic called "The relationship between modern industrial aesthetics and painting..." in the classroom for everyone to discuss. The students' speeches were very wonderful, from the various machines that appeared in the steam era. AND EQUIPMENT, WE MENTIONED ABOUT VARIOUS DESIGNS POPULAR IN MODERN SOCIETY, SUCH AS CARS, ARCHITECTURE, ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS, AND EVEN STUDENTS WHO KNOW MORE ABOUT COMPUTERS PROPOSED THE CONCEPT THAT COMPUTERS ARE SUBVERTED TRADITIONAL GRAPHICS DESIGN, BECAUSE ON APPLE'S LATEST COMPUTERS, A GRAPHICS CALLED PHOTOSHOP HAVE APPEARED. Processing software, very powerful cloud.
Through this kind of discussion, the teacher successfully aroused the enthusiasm of many students for painting, and Lin Hong was one of them.
Until many years later, Lin Hong was very glad that he had taken such a course at the beginning. The skill of painting was of great help to him in his later life and work.
When Lin Hong slowly came to his locker, he found that Arthur and Matthew were waiting for him there.
After Matthew saw Lin Hong, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately ran over and said kindly, "STONE, you are finally back..."
"We've been waiting for you for almost an hour." Arthur also looked excited.
"Uh..."
Lin Hong couldn't help but be a little stunned to see their long-lost relatives after three autumns.
"If I remember correctly, it seems that we just met in the morning?" He made an American joke, "Have you been waiting here for an hour? Am I right? Did you two miss class?
"You're right, we all skip class this morning!" Matthew immediately said, "Forget those boring courses! STONE, do you know that our SAM group has become famous in the whole school!"
"STONE, I apologize to you for your perfunctory attitude this morning. The protocol you invented is the best infrared communication protocol ever! God, I can't believe I witnessed the birth of a great communication protocol with my own eyes!" After Arthur finished speaking, he carefully took out Lin Hong's manuscripts from his schoolbag and returned them to Lin Hong.
"Hey, guys, wait a minute.
I'm a little confused now." Lin Hong had no idea what had happened.
He took the manuscript and asked, "Arthur, can this agreement work?"
"Of course! There is nothing better than it!" Arthur immediately replied, "Here you are, we have implemented the table tennis game. The operation is very stable. It's unbelievable!"
"You are so efficient!"
Lin Hong kind of understands why they are so excited. This result is actually something that he had predicted before. After all, he also knows that the communication rate of this protocol has been qualitatively improved because the communication principle used is different from other major manufacturers. It's just that he didn't expect that Arthur would make an example of this agreement in the morning.
Lin Hong took over the calculator, ran the program, and stood directly here to fight against Matthew. During the battle, he consciously took the initiative to test the communication effect. For example, take a few steps back, then test the maximum transmission distance, the angle of rotating the infrared transceiver, see what range can be transmitted... and so on.
The final effect is quite satisfactory. The maximum distance can reach five meters, but at this distance, the two infrared transceiver must be accurately aligned, and there can be no obstruction in the middle, otherwise the connection will be disconnected.
Moreover, the alignment angle of the infrared transceiver must be within a cone angle of 30 degrees, otherwise the connection will be disconnected.
This is due to a hardware defect in the infrared transceiver and has nothing to do with the protocol.
Arthur and Matthew were so excited that they even forgot these basic tests. At this time, when they saw Lin Hong's professional test, they couldn't help showing shame.
Arthur quickly took out a pen and paper to record all these important situations.
"The effect is good. The two-person battle game is basically competent, but unfortunately, the transmission orientation and angle are limited. Otherwise, we can develop some software similar to radio broadcasting and communication, so that the playability of the calculator can be greatly improved." Lin Hong felt that he could only be barely satisfied with such a result.
Hearing his words, Matthew and Arthur suddenly refreshed their spirits.
"Yes!"
"Good idea!"
They didn't come up with cool functions before, but they didn't expect Lin Hong to say it casually.
Originally, their thinking was bound, and they had always been limited to the framework of computers. They wanted to develop games, or they wanted to develop and learn relevant tools and software, and they had not been able to think about problems from a different perspective.
Isn't infrared wireless an electromagnetic wave?
Inspired by Lin Hong's words, the thoughts of the two of them suddenly divergent.
"Infrared wireless wide gun... Wow, it's so cool!"
"I thought of it! THE CALCULATOR JUST EMAIL!"
"Or you can write a calculator SMS system!"
“......”
As if a gap had been opened by the dam, their all kinds of whimsical ideas began to flow out of their minds like a sudden flood.
