At the World Internet Conference and Light of Internet Expo, a giant intelligent "camera" with many high-tech hidden inside attracted the attention of many visitors. This special camera is an interactive experience project specially set up by the organizing committee - "Bring Wuzhen Home with AI (Artificial Intelligence)". The technology provider behind it is ArcSoft, a visual artificial intelligence company from Hangzhou, which participated in the Light of Internet Expo for the first time this year. The on-site staff told Zhejiang Online reporters that this "camera" has a variety of artificial intelligence black technologies such as intelligent portrait background separation technology, 3D expression cloning technology, and intelligent gesture recognition.

Through a few simple steps, the experiencer can get a set of AI photos with the thousand-year-old water town Wuzhen as the background from the giant smart "camera". When the experiencer takes a selfie, the smart "camera" will use artificial intelligence technology to replace the experiencer's real background with the real scene of Wuzhen, allowing the experiencer to blend into the dignified and elegant Jiangnan water town on the large screen. At the same time, the experiencer can use artificial intelligence gesture recognition to control the photo taking and group photo. The smart "camera" uses beauty technology and special makeup technology to perform secondary processing on the image, and the output background includes the Wuzhen scenery from the Majiabang culture period to today's different eras, as well as the corresponding special makeup pictures of each era.

The R&D team of this chip has a total of 1,800 people. It took two years and cost US$1 billion to develop it. It is currently my country's most advanced chip that is closest to the world level.

At present, the storage range of the chip is at the 64G level. "In the future, we will develop in the direction of 128G or even 256G." The staff told the reporter of Zhejiang Online that the chip is mainly used in industrial grade and storage.

Huawei 5G mobile phones may be available in the middle of next year

What changes will 5G bring us?

"All kinds of connected cars and VR products at the Light of Internet Expo are inseparable from 5G." Huawei staff said that VR products, for example, are prohibitive for many people due to price reasons, and some fun VR games are difficult to promote on a large scale. "With 5G, we can put all computing on the cloud and solve terminal problems."

The example given by the staff is the concept of "thin terminal, wide network" of 5G. 5G technology has three characteristics: low latency, as low as 1 millisecond; enhanced speed, download power of 10G per second; massive Internet of Things, 1 million connections per square kilometer. In this way, all home and wearable devices can be connected to the 5G network, truly realizing the interconnection of all things. In addition, all data can be uploaded to the cloud, the terminal will become very light, and all data can be downloaded and transmitted from the cloud, no longer relying on bulky VR equipment.

After the emergence of 5G, Wi-Fi and routers may be "abandoned". The staff said that in scenarios such as home and office, 5G only needs to install modules on existing equipment, "such as installing modules on water meters, electricity meters, and TVs."

Staff revealed that it is expected that everyone will be able to use Huawei 5G mobile phones by the middle of next year.
