Losing Money to Be a Tycoon Chapter 1065 - The Heat-Dissipation Plan

Chapter 1065: The Heat-Dissipation Plan

“Eh? Now that you mention it, it does seem to fit…”

Lin Wan, w.a.n.g Xiaobin, and Cai Jiadong immediately understood what Ye Zhizhou meant.

‘Fitness Battle’ was a fitness game. When designing this game, the reason why there were so many unique characters in the game that players could develop their characters through fitness was to increase the stickiness of the game.

Players would only enjoy playing the game for a long time if the game was more sticky. The effect of working out would then be achieved.

On the other hand, VR’s characteristic was that it was extremely immersive. If he changed ‘Fitness Battle’ to a VR game, then the characters that could only be seen in the small tablet computer could appear in the players’ vision extremely realistically in the VR.

The subtle changes in the figures of these characters, the effect of each costume change would be more obvious in the eyes of players, and their interaction with players would be more immersive.

There was no doubt that this would greatly increase the stickiness of the game. Players would have a higher pa.s.sion to train their characters in the game through fitness, obtain calories, or directly charge the game’s props.

After all, seeing a dress on a cell phone was completely different from seeing it in a VR.

On the other hand, Fitness Battle was more suitable for VR equipment at this stage.

That was because it was a mobile game. The configurations required would not be very high, and it would not occupy a lot of s.p.a.ce. This meant that this game did not need a computer. It could directly use a cell phone to string VR gla.s.ses. It could even be directly installed in VR gla.s.ses to escape the restrictions of the main computer.

What’s more, it was just like the planned “Animal Island”. It was in a cuter style.

This would be more conducive to avoiding the shortcomings of the current VR equipment’s resolution. It would make the grille effect seen by players less obvious and ensure that players would obtain a good gaming experience.

What’s more, the smart fitness drying rack was very well-matched with the Fitness Battle. There was no need to make any changes to the operating mode for the VR version of the Fitness Battle. Professional players could just follow the instructions and use the smart fitness drying rack after entering the game.

Of course, some very basic operations in the game, such as choosing some options in the game’s t.i.tle page, adjusting the interface settings, drawing props, and so on, still had to be done with a controller.

These were the characteristics of the fitness battle and VR game.

If they could perfectly transplant this game into VR, the cute girls in the game would be able to walk out of the narrow tablet computer and come to the players very realistically, giving them an unprecedented experience.

However, Cai Jiadong could not help but frown as he listened to their discussion. He said, “Indeed, the VR version of Fitness Battle can improve the performance of the entire game by more than one level.”

“However… I thought of a problem.”

“At the moment, the VR helmets on the market would do their best to prevent the VR gla.s.ses from leaking in order to enhance the immersion and immersion in the game. Therefore, manufacturers would choose to completely cover the players’ eyes with a mask. That would bring a better immersion.”

“The problem with that is that it’s very warm and covered.

“In order to improve this problem, the VR gla.s.ses overseas have used high-performance breathable cotton and lightweight composite support structure to make masks. That has increased the comfort of wearing them. However, it has only improved slightly for now. It still cannot solve this problem perfectly.”

“If we do fitness-related VR games, the problem of ‘heat’ might be even more obvious. It would be very difficult to guarantee that it would give players the best fitness experience.”

After Cai Jiadong finished speaking, the other three fell into deep thought.

Obviously, what he said made sense.

In fact, heat was only one aspect of the problem. If it was just a little sweat, many people could still endure half an hour of training to complete it.

The more serious problem was that the interior of the VR gla.s.ses was too sealed, so much so that the water around the eyes could not naturally dissipate after sweating. The water vapor would condense on the lenses, causing the entire field of vision to become blurry, seriously interfering with the normal game process.

Normally, VR games would be games with lesser exercise and would not have such problems. However, the intensity of the exercise in Fitness Battle was a serious match for professional gyms. This problem was definitely more serious than other VR games.

Lin Wan pondered for a moment and suddenly thought of something. She went to the pile of abandoned proposals and searched.

Soon, she took out one of the proposals and flipped to one of the pages.

“Do you think this problem would improve with the heat dissipation design?”

Ye Zhizhou, w.a.n.g Xiaobin, and Cai Jiadong read it.

This was a plan that had been abandoned previously. It used the latest generation of flags.h.i.+p chips in the cell phone. However, because the new generation of flags.h.i.+p chips was too hot and consumed too much power, it would severely shorten the use time of the VR gla.s.ses. Furthermore, it would cause the front board to overheat, so it was abandoned.

Old Song had spent a lot of effort on the heat dissipation system of the VR gla.s.ses in order to suppress the flags.h.i.+p chip even though it had been abandoned.

First of all, the VR gla.s.ses dissipate heat. Apart from adding large amounts of graphite heat dissipation materials into the gla.s.ses like a cell phone, it also left a very thin long heat dissipation area on the front of the VR gla.s.ses. The heat inside the machine was emitted through the fan.

The second was the heat dissipation of the facial area after the VR gla.s.ses were worn. The solution was to install a horizontal bar that would not touch the player’s forehead in the area above the two lenses of the VR gla.s.ses. This horizontal bar would go through the two sides of the VR gla.s.ses and leave two ventilation holes in the areas covered by the straps.

The horizontal strip would also be filled with holes, forming airflow with the sealed s.p.a.ce inside the gla.s.ses. Then, the fresh airflow from the fan would cause the sweat around the eyes to quickly dissipate.

That way, the problem of the blurry lens caused by the sweat around the eyes could be solved.

What’s more, the vents on both sides were blocked by the two straps on the left and right. The vents on the horizontal windway were very small. Even if a small amount of light leaked through the vents, it would not cause obvious leakage and would not affect players’ gaming experience.

What’s more, at the beginning of the design, Old Song proposed a very interesting idea: When there was no need to dissipate heat, this design could also simulate natural wind. Coupled with the gameplay in the game, it would create a “breeze blowing” feeling.

Cai Jiadong nodded slightly. “Yes… this plan can greatly reduce the problem of heat dissipation inside the gla.s.ses.”

“However, the heat dissipation from the VR spectacles still cannot be resolved.”

“What’s more, our VR gla.s.ses weigh 340g. Because we have batteries, they are slightly heavier in the mainstream VR gla.s.ses. Would it be tiring to wear them for exercise? That’s a problem.”

The VR gla.s.ses were fitted with high-performance cotton, so it was impossible to heat up the places that were close to the skin. One would still perspire.

The weight of the VR gla.s.ses was also a problem. The current design plan was a battery back-up and the weight of the entire VR gla.s.ses would be balanced so that the bridge of the nose would not be “pressed”, but training with the weight of two apples would definitely be tiring over time.

Ye Zhizhou thought for a moment and said, “I heard that overseas companies seem to be developing ultra-light VR gla.s.ses that are less than 200g. They don’t look very different from ordinary sungla.s.ses. If we can do this…”

Lin Wan immediately shook her head. “No.”

“It’s not impossible to achieve less than 200g, but you have to cut the battery, and you can’t keep the chip. You have to cut the camera, positioning system, and so on. In the end, it will only be a toy with a short sustainability and no other advantages apart from being light.”

“We want to give gamers the richest gameplay, not toys.

She looked at Cai Jiadong again. “I think your way of thinking is too limited. This might be the way of thinking that you formed in your previous company, but you have to change it as soon as possible here.”

Cai Jiadong was stunned. “Limited thinking?”

Lin Wan nodded. “Yes, but that’s not your problem. It’s a common problem for other companies apart from Tengda.”

“Typical performance is that you can’t grasp the main point and don’t understand the priorities. You can only see the problems and risks but not the opportunities behind the risks.”

Looking at Cai Jiadong’s confused expression, Lin Wan explained, “Everything is flawed. Any attempt would be risky.”

“As an emerging industry, VR definitely has many flaws with its current development level. That’s unavoidable.”

“However, if we only see risks and problems and do not propose a solution, we can only give up. Giving up means losing an opportunity.”

“The reason why Tengda could develop so quickly was because Boss Pei does not hate risks. Instead, he is very pa.s.sionate about finding risks.”

“Of course, looking for risks is not to stupidly take meaningless risky actions. Instead, you have to accurately see the opportunities behind the risks.”

“Think about it carefully. What is the core purpose of the VR version of ‘Fitness Battle’? Is it really to provide players with a comfortable and long-term fitness solution?”

“Of course not!”

“Its core goal is to show players a possibility of the future.

“Players are not paying for a comfortable fitness plan, but for a future possibility.”

“Whether it is comfortable to use is indeed a problem that we have to work hard to solve and improve. However, even if this problem cannot be completely resolved, we don’t have to worry at all because it is not our core goal.”

Cai Jiadong nodded.

“So that was it!

“It looks like my way of thinking is a little rigid. I can’t keep up with the latest trends…”

Lin Wan’s meaning was very clear. The VR version of the Fitness Battle was just a supplement to show players a possibility of the future.

It was impossible for a game or product to be perfect and to please everyone. They would succeed if they could achieve their main goal.
