Chapter 202 Basic Operations
"This thing... in a physics and mathematical sense, can it really work?"
Ellie continued to ask.
"Although the data source is a bit meager," Su Hao said with a faint smile.
"But this is not an insurmountable gap, it is far from being impassable."
Seeing Ellie's shattered expression, Su Hao didn't offer any further explanation...
Instead, he simply turned the laptop screen around and pushed it directly in front of her to show her.
"You see, the operational approach is actually very simple."
I will first extract the flashing patterns of the signals from the camera footage, then combine them with historical congestion information and static traffic volume data provided by the transportation bureau, and merge them to complete the merging process.
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Hao's hands were already on the keyboard.
His fingertips moved extremely quickly, and the tapping sound was crisp and clear, like a torrential downpour, with an indescribable rhythm.
"By organizing the traffic light phases at intersections at different times and calculating the average vehicle delay, we can predict the hidden traffic flow in all uncovered road sections without any blind spots, just like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle."
Su Hao pressed Enter, his tone relaxed.
"To put it bluntly, the millions of traffic flows in this world, when put on paper, are nothing more than a system of interconnected equations."
Jason, standing next to him, was completely dumbfounded. After a couple of seconds of stunned silence, he exclaimed and chuckled as if he had witnessed a spectacular magic trick.
"Dude, are we filming a sci-fi movie?"
Jason frantically rubbed his shocked eyes.
"What you just said sounded exactly like the ultimate magic of those legendary archmages whose words become law!"
Ellie bit her lip hard until she tasted a faint hint of blood, which barely suppressed the dizzying sensation that overturned common sense.
"...I see. Judging by the way you're trying to hack the Earth's transportation network, you're up to something big!"
Ellie took a deep breath and slammed her hand on the table.
"Alright, now that we're on your pirate ship, we'll go all out and risk it all!"
Without a doubt, Ellie's competitive spirit was completely ignited by this god-like move that was worthy of being recorded in the school's history!
She absolutely did not want to become a bystander in this incredible team, someone who could only shout "666" and fawn over their teammates!
After hearing Su Hao's seemingly insane yet logically sound plan, the action-oriented Ellie transformed into a human berserker...
With his exceptional popularity and shamelessness, he visited every laboratory on campus.
They managed to swindle and deceive their way into acquiring a whole bunch of random high-precision cameras, drones, and even military-grade scanners.
Jason, in theory, acted like an idiot when facing Su Hao.
Once he encounters the mechanical equipment he is most proficient in, he undergoes a complete transformation, exuding a seasoned and composed demeanor.
He skillfully operated the laser radar that used beam ranging, directly feeding the captured data into the field of view of the thermal imaging camera for extremely rigorous cross-validation, compressing the error to the extreme.
Moreover, he single-handedly handled all the tasks, such as fine-tuning the flight attitude of the drone in mid-air, eliminating complex GPS drift errors, and adjusting the response speed of all microscopic sensors to the limit, just like chopping vegetables!
And so, with the help of two top students who were burning their lives for them, they managed to create a "data goldmine" that far exceeded Su Hao's expectations.
It is massive in scale, with incredibly detailed data and a shockingly high quality.
Finally, after a hellish ordeal, all the data was perfectly collected.
In the cramped laboratory, accompanied by a slight hum of electricity, the huge screen on the wall suddenly lit up.
In the pale blue light, a network of countless points of light suddenly lit up, perfectly recreating the intricate main road network of downtown Boston.
Jason, sporting enormous dark circles under his eyes, tidied up the tangled mess of cables like a seasoned fisherman, speaking with the air of someone completing an epic quest:
"Report! All on-site data has been entered."
Su Hao sat upright in front of the monitor, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he calmly controlled the entire system.
On the screen, there was dense point cloud data from laser radar, aerial images from drones, footage captured by street cameras, and various in-depth parameter information obtained from the transportation bureau...
At this moment, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, they precisely intertwined and converged under Su Hao's command.
Boom!
Although they couldn't hear anything, it was as if a thunderbolt struck Ellie and Jason's minds.
The massive and chaotic dataset of millions of data points was instantly and perfectly arranged into an array under Su Hao's unpredictable and domineering algorithm.
As the Enter key was pressed, a soft "hum" sounded, and the real-time traffic network of the entire city of Boston was displayed nakedly before the three people's eyes.
The entire laboratory fell into a deathly silence.
Ellie's eyes widened suddenly, and she instinctively held her breath, not daring to even exhale.
"This...this is really...the current real-time traffic situation?"
Su Hao nodded slightly with a nonchalant, "basic" expression.
"In the end, this is just a virtual simulation model that is forcibly generated based on incomplete data."
However, after my algorithm converges, the final error should not be too large.
Su Hao glanced at the watch on his wrist.
"There's no time like the present. Now is the start of the evening rush hour, the time when traffic is most likely to be terrible. Let's go and check it out in person and see how it goes."
pat.
As Su Hao casually typed the last line of code, the giant screen seemed to come alive, flashing with ripples like water, instantly responding.
The once lifeless gray road network instantly lit up like flowing blood!
The system is extremely intelligent, displaying a dense array of three colors of light based on the current level of congestion: glaring red, warning yellow, and unobstructed green.
"I... let me check."
Jason swallowed hard, frantically pulled out his phone, and opened the navigation app.
He meticulously compared the real-time traffic red and green lines on his phone's navigation app with the program results displayed on the screen in front of him.
"Holy crap! This is unbelievable! It's almost exactly the same?! Even the brief traffic jams caused by the traffic lights are exactly the same?!"
Jason's eyes widened, feeling as if his entire worldview had been shattered.
