Genius Game Planning

Chapter 277 Chapter 280 Two Special Game Console
Liu Neng touched his chin, "This plan is indeed a bit radical. But, Old Chu, how about this design?"

Chu Junlei saw that Liu Neng took out another project plan from the messenger bag he carried as if by magic, and was stunned for a while, and smiled wryly, "Your plan A hasn't been PASS yet, why did you come up with it again?" A plan B?"

But he still took it, and asked before opening it, "Compared with the one just now, which project is more difficult? If this is more difficult, I won't read it."

Liu Neng chuckled, "If you have already started thinking about the design just now, this will definitely be realized, [-]%!"

Only then did Chu Junlei boldly open the new design catalogue.

I just turned to the first page, and I looked at him suspiciously, "Did you draw all the design drawings yourself? You didn't get this kind of treatment in the copy just now. Frankly speaking, your actual purpose Is it this way?"

Liu Neng was noncommittal, but he felt that if the same situation could be achieved, the virtual reality + augmented reality gameplay just now would be the most fun game console to play in the next few years.

"Your game console called... um... Switch, the positioning is very vague. It is said to be a handheld...but why is the screen so big? In comparison, it is not particularly convenient to carry. This is different from ordinary handhelds. The design idea of ​​the machine is completely different!"

"Indeed, the design ideas are different, so the products are naturally different."

"Handheld...host? A hybrid machine? This one feels very special. Isn't it an all-in-one machine?"

Liu Neng shook his head, "The detachable module, the main body of the game is composed of three parts, the screen and the main body of the machine, two joy-con handles, and the charging box. The charging box can serve as a data connection box, but this thing, even if it is It can be directly connected to the screen without a charging box.”

"On the whole, the design is not very difficult. At least in the industrial design of the appearance, there is nothing special. The configuration of the machine is not particularly high, which can reduce the cost; but the design of the two handles, It will feel a little strange, as a detachable module mounted on the game machine, this design has not been seen before."

"But in my design, the design has been carried out relatively clearly, including the coordination of margins. There will be built-in highly sensitive HD vibration. This technology is not available in China now, but there is a relatively mature technology in Japan. Using two signals, transverse and longitudinal waves, to simulate real skin touch..."

"Don't talk nonsense, brother. I know this technology. It was only launched in Japan at the beginning of this year. It is not particularly mature. But it is already commercially available. This is a fact."

Liu Neng was a little surprised, "I didn't expect you, a hardware engineer, to know so much about this kind of relative software technology news?"

Chu Junlei really made a wry smile gesture, "This is a combination of software and hardware. Although I make mobile phones, I must pay attention to these industry information. I have also considered whether to use this technology on mobile phones before. But you know, my overall idea of ​​making mobile phones now is to reduce the cost of mobile phones as much as possible, and use some software and hardware that users need more, and they are relatively mature, so that we can more effectively reduce costs and improve cost performance. "

Liu Neng agreed and nodded, "That's true."

"I see that in terms of the design of the entire machine, the really complicated thing is the design of the handle, which contains dozens of sensors. Moreover, the design of the handle seems to be very odd-shaped. Originally, one handle could be completed, but finally it was placed on two handles. Among them, it is equivalent to multiplying the number of sensors required by two, which will bring an additional increase in cost. It is not a very wise choice."

"Indeed. But in a sense, this is also the biggest difference between this game console and other game consoles. Look back and savor carefully."

"Ah? There are many more in the future?" Chu Junlei was a little incredulous, thinking that seeing this was enough to have a comprehensive understanding of this so-called "epoch-making" game console.But judging from what Liu Neng meant, it wasn't enough.

"Huh? Somatosensory game console? Can this be disassembled into a somatosensory game console?" Chu Junlei was stunned for a moment, then looked down, and his eyes lit up, "The vibration module, the gyroscope in the handle, and the infrared, I'll go , you are interesting!"

To put it simply, there are secrets hidden in the two small handles. Through various sensors, the position, direction, vibration, and pressure of the handles can all be detected, which means that the two handles can obtain enough motion information, and even There are much more sensors than ordinary so-called somatosensory game consoles.

A small example was cited in the project case. When the two handles are connected to a Pilates ring, the pressure element on the handle can detect the bending degree of the Pilates ring and determine whether the player is using the Pilates ring. Doing fitness can have some basic tests, and then design a set of fitness adventure games for this purpose.

"Your plan is very special, but... let me be blunt, how many gamers like to exercise? Your case itself is not very valid?" Chu Junlei said, although it said so in the words, but seeing here , He really thought about it in his heart, after this kind of game comes out, will he also like to go to the gym, instead of going to the gym and asking the fitness trainers eight times a day if he wants to sign up for private training?

"The design of this game console is not entirely for gamers, but to allow more people to enjoy the fun of games." Liu Neng said forcefully.

"Let more people..." Chu Junlei was a little confused, "You mean you want more people to play the game, instead of cutting cakes among the current player group?"

"Right, instead of grabbing cakes with others, it's better to find a way to make the cake bigger. For example, the example I gave, a fitness adventure game, do you think those young girls who like fitness will like it..."

"Not necessarily? They don't go to the gym entirely for fitness, maybe for taking pictures, or for having an affair..."

"This...are you just...a national first-level arrogant athlete?" Liu Neng was speechless, but it seemed that what he said was fine. "This is just a small example, and that's what it means. And in the later stage, more things can be done around this game console. Isn't there an infrared sensor in it? Can it be made into a shooting game? There is a vibration sensor, and it can be made into a somatosensory ping-pong game." Can ball games be used? It’s also a game console itself, because it has a vibration sensor, should we make a little fuss about game interaction...these are all possible..."
