Players Invade Cyberpunk

There's already an exoskeleton in the game!

However, Mantou quickly reacted, wondering what it had to do with her. She needed to focus on her own work, scratching her head as she spoke.

"I don't know about the neural sensor connection, plus wouldn't that thing be expensive?"

Not to mention her, even her dad doesn't understand it.

Mitch was at a loss for words. He couldn't tell if the person in front of him truly didn't get it or was just messing with him. How could there be an engineer in this world who doesn't understand neural sensor connection?

Since Germany developed the first bionic muscle in 1970, all technology globally has relied on cyber neural connections, from aircraft, combat vehicles, power armor to even a gun, VR, or super dream headbands, all requiring neural connection. Even information storage itself is entirely reliant on Cyberspace.

Otherwise, Bartmos wouldn't have caused the initial net crash, leading to over seventy percent of real-world technology being lost in the old net. Even now, large companies desperately salvage lost technology from the old net, further deepening the reliance on advanced technology neuro connections.

People like Mantou, who completely disregard neural connections, are absolute outliers.

In terms of Power Armor, various countries are competing in the high-end market. Military Science's commando has overturned Huang Ban's Model B, so Huang Ban needs to build Model C to counter the commando. Military Science then strengthens the commando to retaliate. Other companies follow suit, vying for cutting-edge technology.

Overall, the competition has caused costs to skyrocket, and nobody is thinking about creating cheap Power Armor.

Who would build something with a pile of scrap metal like the person in front of me?

It's like the fierce competition between Kretz and Tao for e-commerce market share, only for Xishixi to suddenly capture the entire niche market—who could have foreseen that?

But since Lin Miao entrusted this task, Mitch decided to help out regardless. However shabby it may be, it's not like it's for Adcardo, so he stroked his beard and said,

"You've got a valid point. Price is indeed a concern, and if this thing were connected to nerves for brain control, it might only take a few days to become cyber psychosis. Pure program assistance might be a solution."

"But I think you might learn from the structure of artificial limbs, treating it like a large artificial limb. For instance, using soft joint hinges for fingers could increase flexibility. Although it's a bit troublesome, the materials can be taken from discarded artificial limbs, which shouldn't increase the cost too much..."

"External artificial limb? Can it move without connecting to the brain?"

"Hmm..." Mitch was a bit perplexed as well.

Mantou didn't understand it, but she had a new idea.

"Since it cannot be directly controlled by the brain, could we program a brain-machine interface to directly read and replicate body movement data for real-time mimicry? After all, it's humanoid, right."

If her own brain doesn't work, then adding an external brain might be the solution, even if that brain isn't really intelligent. But she was just speaking casually, whether it would work or not wasn't up to her.

"Hiss..." Mitch was also shocked. He hadn't really thought about this approach before. The technology for replicating nerve data poses little challenge for cybernetically modified humans; it only requires dismantling part of the neural feedback system from the artificial limb.

"This is something we could maybe try, though doing so would mean it's impossible to add intelligent weapon systems...."

The old and the young started an engaging conversation in the studio tent, with Mitch even using computer industrial software to model on site, completely leaving Natural Curl aside.

Natural Curl rolled his eyes; he had expected this, and randomly began to explore the camp named Adcardo. Last time, he had refused their invitation to a party with Pandora, so this time he decided to take a chance to learn about this neutral faction.

The concept image of Power Armor in the early settings of the 2077 game, most are big figures two to three meters tall, with dual-direction neural connections for direct control. The smaller ones are all Adam Hammer type full-body prosthetic modifications.
