CYBERBIKE

Оглавление

.Fred pastes the motorcycle with pieces of a flexible LCD monitor, and solders the wires. The trim covers the entire motorcycle. The wheels are almost completely covered with a fairing.

The contour drawing of a motorcycle is visible on the monitor of the working computer. Fred, looking at the monitor, draws the outlines of the future borders of color. He “fills” the contours in different colors, tries different color options. All his actions are visible on the body of the motorcycle. Fred keeps coloring options in computer memory.

Fred takes out Leo’s processor from the system unit standing on the table.

He sets the Leo processor inside the bike. Fred connects the processor with the control unit, with video cameras and electrical equipment.

– Well? Let’s try? – Hurries to see the result of Fred.


Leo, already as a cybernetic motorcycle, standing on a stand, turns the lenses of the front video cameras, located in the front direction indicators.

– The room is turning! What’s happening? Can I turn the room around? This is for sure I turn on, turn, turn off, stop turning.

– This is not a room turning, it is you who control the rotation of video cameras.

– This is the turn of the camcorder. – Repeats Leo, and stores this data in his memory.

Leo starts turning the rear camcorder.

– What’s up with the room? Now I saw one wall, and now I see another.

– You probably switched to the rear camera. Before that, you saw what is in front of you, and now you see what is behind you.

– Switch from front to rear camcorders – Leo repeats again and stores in memory.

Leo turns the rear camera lenses.

– The room just does not move?

– No, this is the turn of the rear video cameras.

– This is a rear camera. – Repeats Leo, and stores this data in his memory.

Leo switches to the front camera, and includes an approximation (zoom) of lenses.

– The wall is moving towards me!

– This is not a wall moving towards you, apparently you increase the focal length of the lenses.

– These are video cameras, lenses, focal length. – Repeats and stores in his memory Leo.

Leo turns on another switch. The front electromagnetic shock absorbers are compressed and the front of the bike is reduced.

– The room goes up!

– The room stands still.

– I did not move the camcorder! Is this an additional camera control?

“No, you lower your front, squeezing the front suspension.”

– Why is it needed?

– Front shock absorbers raise and lower the front of the motorcycle. Dampers are needed for a smooth ride, so that not the whole motorcycle and the person sitting on it, but only one of the wheels, shakes on uneven roads.

– Not understood. Easier to make roads smooth. That nothing was shaking.

Leo returns his front end to the normal position and turns on the next switch. Compressed rear shock absorber. The back of the bike goes down almost to the floor.

– And what’s that? Now the room goes down.

Further rises above the normal position, then returns to its original position.

– This is apparently the rear suspension. – Makes a conclusion Leo, and includes another switch. – And what’s that?

– A bright spot appears on the wall! I turn on, and the wall becomes lighter! This is for sure I turn on! Can I make part of the wall brighter?!

– You do not turn on the spot on the wall, but your spotlight. This is a headlight. A bright spot on the wall is the light from your headlamp.

Leo turns on, off and switches the headlamp light.

– And now the bright spot jumps lower, the suspenders do not move, the room stands still?

– This is a dipped beam. – Lists Fred.

– What is it for?

– To see in the dark, and so that we can be seen in the dark. Dipped in order not to blind oncoming drivers.

– I can see in the dark in the infrared, I do not need this light.

– I need this light.

“Can’t you see in the infrared?”

– No, I do not see, and other people do not see.

– So, what’s this?


The turn indicators start flashing – the LEDs around the lenses of the video cameras.

– Why is nothing happening?

– These are direction indicators. You do not see them, they are too weak to light the wall. – He gets the answer to Fred. And without waiting for the question “for what?”, Fred continues. – In order to show other road users your intentions to turn aside, or to indicate an emergency stop.
