Chapter 168: Upgrade
Miao Wei's motivation for inventing the electromechanical mouse came from his creation of product structure drawings. The ordinary mechanical mouse was too low to continue his drawing work because of its low accuracy.
The company has very high requirements for product quality and the product structure diagram must be precise enough so that the parts will meet the precision standards when machining.
Miao Wei is a software engineer in the intelligent control system project department. The company's creative smart products are what they come up with.
It can be said that their brains have become habitually imaginative.
The mouse is not his work scope or a smart product, but when his drawing work is in trouble, he habitually starts to think about how to improve the accuracy of the mouse?
Foreign optoelectronic mice obviously do not meet the company's current situation. Just a photosensitive component is a hurdle that cannot be overcome.
He thought of the inertial navigation gyroscope used on avionics, also known as electronic gyroscopes. Electronic gyroscopes have a distinctive characteristic. No matter how they move, their stator central axis will always point in a direction.
The gyro device with various functions made by people using the mechanical properties of gyros is called gyroscope. It has a wide range of applications in various fields such as science, technology, and military.
There are many types of gyroscopes, and they can be divided into sensor gyroscopes and indicator gyroscopes according to their purpose.
Miao Wei uses its angular sensing characteristics to obtain the displacement data of mouse movement, and then makes the screen of the computer monitor into a high-precision virtual digital map according to the phase points.
It also uses the feature that the central axis of the gyroscope always points in one direction as the starting point of the cursor and uses the dsp digital processing chip for calculation, which obtains a high-precision cursor displacement control capability.
This displacement accuracy is far from comparable to the displacement accuracy of an ordinary mechanical mouse, dpi200, and it is not comparable to the displacement accuracy of a photoelectric mouse, dpi500. It can infinitely improve with the screen's phase accuracy, and is the best and most suitable computer mouse.
After detailed thinking and argumentation, while the company gave them a free time for seven days off, he contacted Dong Bin, a hardware engineer in the same project team. The two were friends and just matched the hardware and software. They spent only three days designing this new mouse that he called the electromechanical mouse.
Huang Yuanhao joined because they asked Huang Yuanhao to help produce the most precise micro gyroscope.
So Miao Wei added the names of Dong Bin and Huang Yuanhao to his research report.
This is how things happened, which is why Miao Wei still submitted research reports to Liu Meijuan during the holiday.
The electromechanical mouse he invented did not fall within the scope of research explained by the company. Moreover, this new electromechanical mouse was not available in later generations and was a brand new invention, so it was highly praised by Liu Meijuan and given a heavy reward.
From this small matter, we can see that Chinese people are not stupid, but we don’t think about problems carefully. Miao Wei and the intelligent control system project engineers, who have as many as 50 people, have become accustomed to thinking about problems. This is the most valuable resource of Dolphin Technology.
From now on, they all created countless genius inventions, which is something that will not be mentioned later.
Liu Meijuan was already very happy at this moment. The growth of her employees was visible to her naked eyes. Not to mention those genius smart products, Miao Wei's unexpected invention is enough to prove that they are growing rapidly and have undergone a qualitative transformation.
This is exactly what she hopes, so she usually only gives general research orders and controls the final review. She doesn't care about everything in between, letting them create freely, even if it's wasting a lot of precious time.
It is her sheep-herding training that engineers of Dolphin Technology have become accustomed to thinking and imagination.
Just like this, Liu Meijuan was still working hard at the chip design project team, and only gave Hu Weiwu a chip design outline and gave them more than two months of class.
She did not say how the technology in the middle should be implemented, nor did she say the real content. This not only gave them tasks and pressure, but also encouraged them to grow.
It sounds very hard. Although Liu Meijuan devoted herself to taking maternity leave at home, the company's technical research report could only be handed over to her for review.
The company is currently moving forward with multiple players, and each project team is not affiliated with each other. Apart from her, the technical director, there is no higher-level technical director.
Liu Meijuan has realized this problem. She is more than six months pregnant now, but she is not good at it, but she can still review the report at home.
But a few months later, she gave birth to a child and could not do this job, so after Miao Wei left, she was considering this issue.
In the company's technical department, only Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong are beginning to emerge, but both of them focus on the software field.
At the same time, they are all natives in the time and space, and their vision and knowledge are naturally not comparable to themselves, which means that each of them alone cannot replace their work.
After careful consideration, Liu Meijuan decided to form a technical committee with Wang Yong as the leader, and all project supervisors were included.
In this way, when you make major technical decisions, you will not easily make wrong decisions.
After deciding on this important thing, Liu Meijuan considered that all project managers have made significant research achievements.
If you have merits, Liu Meijuan decided to formalize the various project teams that are still in the temporary team at this stage and upgrade them to a higher level to keep up with the domestic and international trends.
It is also a reward for their contributions.
Liu Meijuan’s method is to upgrade all the current project teams to professional research institutes, and then upgrade them to research institutes when the time is ripe in the future.
Of course, there are exceptions. Given that the initial tasks of the smart home system project have basically completed, only technical maintenance and product upgrades will be carried out in the future, and the task is not so urgent, so not only will people not be added, but half of the staff will be transferred to form a new R&D project.
There is also Zhu Tao from the access control system project team, who did not deserve any credit and did not meet the conditions for promotion. Liu Meijuan decided to let him still serve as the manager of the smart home system project team after the merger, and retain the original system and will not be upgraded.
Compared with this, Song Qingwei, who is also under the Smart Home System Project Department, did a very beautiful job and successfully completed the task assigned to him by the company.
So Liu Meijuan decided to promote him to the director of the upcoming Office Software Research Institute.
As for Brother Ma, who has outstanding abilities, Liu Meijuan decided to promote him to the director of the extremely important application software research institute after he straightened out the work of the Network Construction Engineering Department.
Zhang Zhidong is still responsible for the research and development of cloud operating systems and is upgraded to the director of the System Software Research Institute on site.
There is also the chip design project department led by Hu Weiwu, which is not suitable for changes. After completing the research and development task of this high-performance server-specific processing chip, it has also been upgraded to the director of the Integrated Circuit Research Institute on the spot with its achievements.
This is a primary organizational structure, which will be differentiated and upgraded in the future, and will also add more research institutes.
Since it is an upgrade, Liu Meijuan has designated him as a senior cadre at the vice president level, and is one level higher than the technical manager.
