Obama in 8 three great contribution to the world of technology-IT information
Barack Hussein Obama is ending his 8-year term. The breaking of "United States refer to technical terms than any other President in history" records President in 8 years to the field of science and technology has made great contributions, especially his "two pushes a reform", two big investment boom is leading today's scientific and technological circles.
Which two push?
Implementation of 1.VR
VR heat today that a Word can have, to a large extent derived from the implementation of the Obama. This dates back to the year 2013. Then Obama made such a speech, titled "Technology will save the country" (technology will save the country). In the speech, proved a long length of VR technology. Special mention of him in 2012, an interview with a pan-VR, he said "Wow! This is too cool! ”
In July 2015, Obama visited Kenya. Obama's visit in addition to publishing about Kenya and his own speeches, also asked the Nantucket project group and the Azimyth Studio the speech into the VR version.
Stephanie Riggs, founder of Azimyth Studio says:
"In an environment of total immersion, President (of a VR shooting) public speaking this is a historic moment, in which we have not experienced before. VR has a lot of potential and it can expand the journalistic way. ”
Addition to other speeches, Obama also has Obama elementary school of science and technology. This is a school specializing in talent from an early age, high-tech industries, according to United States local reports, the elementary school will be month and quarter to organize innovation competition. While this school will also set the course, in which curriculum is the most VR. Of course content from the content to the device. Pupils in # VR#
As a public figure in the absolute sense, to speak in their own image is the best way. Picture of Obama wearing a VR have become almost routine, but from a product perspective, see Obama experienced all products with higher technology content. Following is August 2016 is a very popular figure in the VR world, Obama was wearing VR glasses, watching himself recently in the United States in a speech at the National Park.
Of course, this picture is by PS around, said foreigners will only play.
One HTC VIVE Marketing Manager said:
"In the beginning when we receive orders from the White House thought it was a prank until later received a letter from the White House to send messages. They made it clear in a message to the White House needs the consumer version, it is obvious they want to play. ”
If the VR industry head shot was United States 2012 "Electronic Entertainment Expo" (also known as E3) on display at the Oculus prototype, so Obama can be considered as the VR industry leaders, and even said he was a "geek".
Thanks to implementation of Obama from the inside out, thanks to VR industry from 1.54 billion yuan in 2015 to 2016 had been completed nearly 500% increase, reaching 5.65 billion yuan. According to the Upload VR analysis, industry before landing at least half of this growth comes from the United States Government strongly supports. #Obama is a VR player #
Someone likes someone, and Obama indulged in VR technology for the network of journalists Will Mason published a long article "How Virtual Reality Will Influence the 2016 Presidential Election" (VR how United States presidential elections in 2016)
2. implementation of the unmanned
Tiger sniff the net translated before Obama in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's article on the unmanned, Yes, the same security. The following is an excerpt from the article:
In the article, Obama announced, driverless cars on the road the White House launched a new set of policies, and handed over to the State as a guiding rule. In addition, Obama also called on the Government and businesses come together to address the issue of drone technology in the application of. Published this article in the Pittsburgh Post is because Obama will be in October in this city for a seminar on the forefront of White House (White House Frontiers Conference).
United States major business and technology media have responded to this, have pointed out that Obama's move to release a signal, which is legislation for the driverless cars, this technology in the future is likely to be legal.
And VR is similar to Obama drone industry implementation is from the beginning. But in the follow-up process, nothing is linked with education, but opted for the implementation of related policies. In accordance with the United States at that time around the road traffic safety law, management of unmanned vehicles in favor of public transportation and logistics industry.
Then problem came, nobody wants to hit the road, testing is inevitable. But public transport and logistics vehicles of both industry test environment does not meet the real needs. Here add that the first unmanned vehicles are deemed disabled and drunk drivers, transport, today to ADAS, V2X applications, Tire 1 technology of unmanned cars there is a big difference.
So Obama as early as possible in order to make technical ground, specially delegated regulations, allowing unmanned vehicles in certain sections of the test. And United States security sector-related data sharing with the unmanned vehicle industry giants such as Google, technology was born.
Is Obama himself and come with unmanned vehicles to drive, this implementation is the same as VR. Borrowed the influence of public figures to call for enterprises and citizens of this technology. Youtube also has a 46-second video on the Obama test drive. You can see in the video, Obama says he's a bit like "Knight Rider" (Knight Rider).
Obama said in an interview after the test drive:
"As a father of a daughter who just turned 16 years old, of any make driving safer technology is important to me. Moreover, this efficient driving techniques can also bring about economic growth. ”
Obama to these practices, for not only is the development of unmanned areas. Industry officials said unmanned will be completed because of more new technology into a revolutionary transformation. From simple light transport to a public transportation facility. Analysts forecast that the unmanned landing in addition to encouraging outside the auto industry, will greatly increase the efficiency of the civil, and insurance. Total is likely to reach quadrillion dollars.
What changed?
Broadband communication infrastructure
Obama in Office pushing the country's progress in social networks, Twitter, FaceBook, Reddit, in today's point is obvious to all.
At the site level, Obama is to provide some basic data, as well as some policy support. But most important, also came from Obama for United States communications infrastructure renovations.
First, the reform to strengthen the community, schools, hospitals and other public areas of communication. In the United States, in addition to full bars everywhere, speed has reached a very high level. According to a United States student revealed that speeds achieved were already 10m/s.
This massive network also makes electronic medical records implementation of rectification. So, patients can save a huge amount of examination fees, reducing health care costs.
In addition, modification of the infrastructure are also United States there is a high level of public safety. In front of the corrective action, United States lines were laid in the 1970 of the 20th century the old away, interoperable public safety network in the 1980 of the 20th century has been born.
Infrastructure improvement of the end-beneficiaries will always be citizens, no doubt. Obama's approach drew many who gather round, this is the White House would like to see.
The construction of the channel is actually shorter folks from your Terminal to another Terminal, or the distance between the clouds. When closed, then, in personal communication costs are also reduced. This contributed to another even larger than the above two industries put together industry was born, IOT.
Of course, such a rapid development of IOT domain without infrastructure, but ultimately rely on Qualcomm, Intel, led by the underlying technology giants. They are seen as a reduction in communication costs and makes consumers more closely connected with the end, only the field of IOT today the March roll speed.
It appears from the present trend, field of IOT for milliseconds and the growing demand for real-time communications. If Obama, or that the White House no longer continues to strengthen the construction of network infrastructure, the field of IOT development focus will be biased by SK, KT and the LGU leading Korea.
Beside the point, said it had to hand it to Qualcomm wise tactics. 5G have a say in this area of the enterprise, Qualcomm and the relationship of these carriers are the best. Korea local conglomerate Samsung just in time "accident" can be said to be the right time and and a little bit of luck.
Closer to home, Obama no matter from what perspective, his contribution in the field of science and technology compared to semiconductor implementation of Bush has surpassed. Then the United States excellent underlying technologies for the high-tech industry, and coupled with the inherent favourable innovation environment, and finally through the implementation of policies to encourage, directly lead to the point where today three new industry in the field of science and technology, as well as Obama wrote himself a "technology fan" feat.
奥巴马在任8年对科技界的三大贡献 - IT资讯
Barack Hussein Obama即将结束他长达8年的任期。这位打破“美国历史上提及科技名词最多的总统”记录的总统，在8年间对科技领域做出了无比巨大的贡献，尤其是他的“两推一改”，更是引领了当今科技圈两大投资热潮。
哪两推？
1.VR的推行
VR一词能有今天的热度，很大程度上源自Obama的推行。这事要追溯到2013年。当时Obama发表了这样一段演讲，名为“Technology will save the country”（科技会拯救国家）。在该演讲中，VR技术占据了很长的篇幅。特别提到了他在2012年接受的一次泛VR式采访，他表示“哇哦！这真的太酷了！”
2015年7月，Obama访问了肯尼亚。Obama此行除了发布一段关于肯尼亚和他个人关系的演讲外，还特地请了Nantucket项目组以及Azimyth创作工作室将这次演讲制作成了VR版。
Azimyth创作工作室的创始人Stephanie Riggs说到：
“总统在完全沉浸的环境下（指VR拍摄）公开演讲这是一个历史性的时刻，在这之前我们完全没有经验。VR有很大的潜力，它能够扩展新闻报导的方式。”
除了演讲以外，Obama还开办了Obama科技小学。这是一所专门负责从小培养高新技术产业人才的学校，根据美国当地的报导，这所小学会以月和季度为单位举办各类的创新大赛。同时这所学校还会设置相关课程，其中课程安排最多的就是VR。课程涵盖的内容从内容到设备。#小学生造VR#
作为一个绝对意义上的公众人物，用自己的形象来代言是最好的办法。Obama佩戴VR的照片已经屡见不鲜了，而且从产品角度来看，看得出来Obama体验过了当今所有技术含量较高的产品。下面是一张2016年8月份在VR界很火爆的图，Obama戴着一个VR眼镜，观看自己最近在美国国家公园的一次演讲。
当然，这张照片也是受到了来自各地的PS，只能说还是老外会玩。
一位HTC VIVE市场负责人这样说到：
“一开始我们收到来自白宫的订单时以为是恶作剧，直到后来收到一封白宫寄来的邮件。在邮件中他们明确表示白宫需要的是消费者版，很明显他们就是想拿来玩。”
如果说VR产业头一枪是美国2012年“Electronic Entertainment Expo”（又称E3）上展出的Oculus原型机，那么Obama绝对可以算得上是VR产业的领军人物，甚至可以说他是一个“极客”。
拜Obama从里到外的推行所赐，VR产业规模从2015年的15.4亿元到2016年已经完成将近500%的上涨，达到56.5亿元。根据Upload VR的分析，产业在落地前的这种增长至少超过一半是来自于美国政府的大力支持。#Obama是VR功臣#
有人喜就有人忧，沉迷VR技术的Obama让该网的记者Will Mason发表了一篇长文“How Virtual Reality Will Influence the 2016 Presidential Election”（VR是如何影响美国2016年总统选举的）
2.无人驾驶的推行
虎嗅网之前就翻译过Obama在《匹兹堡邮报》上的文章《无人驾驶，没错，同样安全》。以下摘自该文章：
奥巴马在该文章中宣布，白宫针对无人驾驶汽车上路推出了一套新的政策，并交给各州政府作为指导规则。此外，奥巴马还呼吁政府和企业一同来处理无人驾驶技术在应用中的问题。而之所以《匹兹堡邮报》发布了这篇文章是因为奥巴马将于10月在这个城市参加白宫的前沿问题讨论会 (White House Frontiers Conference)。
美国各大商业和科技媒体纷纷对此做出响应，有文章指出奥巴马此举释放了一个信号，那就是针对无人驾驶汽车进行立法，这项技术未来很可能会合法化。
和VR类似，Obama关于无人驾驶产业的推行也是先从演讲开始。只不过在后续的进程上，没有与教育相挂钩，而是选择了相关政策的实行。按照美国当时围绕交通道路安全的法律来说，无人车的管理更偏向于公共交通和物流产业。
这时候问题就来了，无人车想要上路，测试是在所难免的。可是公共交通和物流这两个产业的载具测试环境并不能满足无人车真正对应的需求。这里稍微补充一点，最早无人车是被当作残疾人、酒醉司机的代步工具，跟今天以ADAS、V2X、Tire 1等技术应用的无人车存在很大的差别。
因此Obama为了让技术尽早落地，特地下放了相关法令，允许无人车在一些特定路段进行测试。并且将美国安全部门相关数据资料与谷歌等无人车领域巨头进行共享，促进技术的诞生。
随之而来的就是Obama本人的无人车试驾，这点跟VR的推行是一样的。借用公众人物的影响力去号召企业以及民众认可这项技术。Youtube上还有关于Obama试驾的一段46秒的视频。可以在视频中看到，Obama说自己有点像“Knight Rider”（霹雳游侠）。
Obama在试驾后接受采访时这么说：
“作为一个女儿刚满16岁的父亲来说，任何一项使驾驶更安全的技术都对我很重要。而且，这种高效的驾驶技术还可以带来经济上的增长。”
Obama这些做法，换来的不仅是无人驾驶领域的发展。行业人士表示，无人驾驶将会因为更多新技术的融入从而完成一次革命性的转型。将从单纯的轻型代步工具变成一种公共交通设施。分析师预测，无人驾驶的落地除了能激励汽车产业外，还将会大幅度增加公民的工作效率，以及保险。总规模有可能达到千万亿美元。
哪一改？
宽带通信基础设施
Obama在任期间层大力推进国家的社交网络进展，Twitter、FaceBook、Reddit在今天的地步是有目共睹的。
在网站层面上，Obama主要是提供了一些基础数据，以及一些政策上的支持。但是最主要的，还是来自于Obama对美国通信业务基础设施的整改。
首先来说，此次整改加强了社区、学校、医院等公众区域的通信连接。在美国，除了随处可见的满格信号以外，网速也达到了一个很高的级别。据一位美国留学生透露，网速达到10m/s的地方已经随处可见了。
这种大规模的网络整改同时也让电子病历得以实施。正是如此，病患可以省去很大一笔检查费用，从而降低了医疗成本。
除此之外，基础设施的整改也让美国有了更高级别的公共安全。在整改前，美国的线路都是20世纪70年代铺设的陈旧路程，而20世纪80年代可互操作的公共安全网络通信就已经诞生了。
基础设施整改的最终受益者永远是公民，这点毋庸置疑。Obama的做法引来了无数的拥簇者，这也是白宫希望看到的。
这种通道方面的建设实际上就是缩短老百姓们从终端到另一个终端，或者到云端之间的距离。当距离缩短以后，以个人为单位的通信成本也就降低了。这就促进了另一个比上面两个产业加一块还要大的产业诞生，IOT。
当然，IOT领域能有如此飞速的发展虽然离不开基础建设，但是归根结底还是依靠高通英特尔为首的底层技术巨头。他们在看到了因为降低通信成本而使得消费者与端更加紧密的连接后，才有了IOT领域如今铁蹄滚滚的发展速度。
从目前的趋势看来，IOT领域对于毫秒级实时通讯的需求日益增大。如果Obama，或者说白宫不再继续加强网络设施建设，那么IOT领域的发展重心将会偏向由SK、KT、LGU领军的韩国。
题外话，说到这不得不佩服高通英明的战术。在这几家5G领域拥有发言权的企业中，高通和这些电信运营商的关系是最好的。而且韩国本土的大财团三星正好赶上“车祸”，可以说是天时地利人和外加一点点运气。
言归正传，Obama无论从何种角度来说，他在科技领域的贡献跟半导体推行者Bush比起来都是有过之而无不及。先是以美国高新产业优秀的底层技术为铺垫，再加上先天适宜的创新环境，最后再通过政策的鼓励，直接造就了三大科技领域新产业今天的地步，也为Obama自己谱写了一段颇有“科技范”的丰功伟业。
