Virtual Full Dive Technology
I agree that some people are not taking this seriously. But, I myself have seen the anime “Sword Art Online”; my knowledge of the human brain and the virtual technology we have today is NOT professional. However from what I have learned from the world and SAO this could be possible in the next few years to somehow create a virtual full dive server.
If we start out with the headgear for the system; my thinking, like many others (and the anime) is that it would be something like a helmet. But if you take notice of the NerveGear and AmuShere(2) they both have an eye protecter or a screen over their eyes. This could be for practical reasons, like keeping objects and people from touching the wearer’s eyes, keeping out sunlight, or even just to somehow keep the gear on the wearer’s head. But the opposite side of the gear ( that is near the base of the neck and spine) intercepts the signals the body (muscles, nerves, cells, ect.) send to the brain and vice versa. The brain sends signals to the muscles and nerves, and we move our bodies as the result. The gear could intercepted these signals and use the electricity our bodies give off to control the avatar like it is an actual body. Like in the movie “Avatar”, Jake Sully goes into something of a full dive machine. In the movie, the machine probably used some type of device to intercept the signals the body sends to the neurotransmitters in the brain. Also sending the conscious of the user into an avatar made with the the user’s Genetic data or DNA. But let’s get back to the virtual world.
Obviously the dive system wouldn’t be exactly like a normal mmorpg interface, where you sit at a computer. The full dive system could have a console were you would insert the CD or drive into it (like a “PlayStation” product, or an X-Box, or another type of console) henceforth the data of the game downloads into the console and records the progress of the player when they start the game. There would most likely be a large server and satellite used to connect the players to the interface of the game, so the system and console has to be connected to internet by a cord/plug, or most commonly a wireless connection (Wi-Fi). The server and satellite would have to be conected in order to send all the players’ data into the interface of the map of the game. All the while the player’s data would be sent to the console and hard drive, saving the user’s data.
There is more I could go on and on about but I just want to get a basic idea. Comment if if there is false information that used. I would like to know. I do NOT own any of the name brands of the products. Contact me if you have a question or idea I would love to see what others think of my version of all of this.
