Speed and Passion 8 has sparked a global film viewing frenzy. Cuban street racing, New York alleyway racing, and Russian snow racing, all start racing mode with a word of disagreement. It's just that the full screen of black technology has also attracted a small number of melon eating people to roast, which goes against common sense. I have compiled a detailed list of the 8 major technologies in the film, and found that they are all supported by reasonable scientific theories, but only technologically advanced.
1. Antique car: Instantly accelerate to fly
On the streets of Havana, Dominic Toledo accelerated his final journey. Many viewers are struggling with what he has done to make a dilapidated antique car sprint (indeed a burning flame) across the finish line.
Turbocharging and mechanical turbocharging are well-known among common automotive acceleration technologies, while the NOS nitrogen oxide acceleration system is used in the world linear acceleration race. The working principle of the latter is to liquefy nitrogen monoxide (N ₂ O) under high pressure into a steel cylinder, and then mix it with air in the engine to act as a combustion aid and fuel for combustion, thereby increasing the integrity of fuel combustion and instantly increasing the high rate of horsepower. Due to the additional combustion support capability (high oxygen content) provided by NOS, it is necessary to increase fuel injection after installation to further enhance engine power. However, it is recommended not to use the NOS system for more than 10 seconds. Currently, there is no engine capable of withstanding more than 1 minute of NOS injection. So Cuban street racing won the race with Dominica, but the vehicle they drove ended up being scrapped.
Reminder: If you want to achieve the instant acceleration pleasure of the vehicle in an environmentally friendly way, you can try a hybrid vehicle equipped with supercapacitors. The new generation of Mazda cars have been installed.
2. EMP electromagnetic pulse weapon: 60 second charging with astonishing destructive power
The EMP seized by the villain Sever in the film is a sudden, broadband electromagnetic radiation high intensity electromagnetic pulse weapon, powerful enough to instantly destroy a city. The charging time of this weapon is very short, only 60 seconds. In the second half of the film, Dominic Toledo used this weapon.
When electromagnetic pulses occur, any unprotected electrical appliances and anything connected to wires, such as power systems, electronic devices, microchips, etc., will be affected by electromagnetic pulses and cause irreparable damage. Moreover, electromagnetic pulses can cause significant changes in atmospheric charge density, causing interference in various bands below ultra-high frequencies and temporarily blocking communication. Although weapons have almost no direct impact on organisms, approaching the affected electronic devices may result in burns, shock, or even death due to the instantaneous generation of ultra-high voltage.
Reminder: In real life, the practicality of EMP cannot be achieved without energy storage units with fast charging and high-power discharge, and supercapacitors are energy storage devices that meet these characteristics.
3. Tianyan System: Real time tracking and 360 degree observation
When Seif doesn't know any information, he just needs to say the person's name to the Sky Eye system, and the system can search for his facial recognition through the monitoring system and identify his current position by checking the name, and can observe 360 degrees.
Reminder: In real society, there is no global "heavenly eye" system. However, facial recognition technology has been applied in multiple countries, which can help law enforcement personnel continuously improve their decision-making, analysis, and prediction abilities.
4. Zombie vehicle: unmanned automatic start stop
Seif intends to seize the nuclear launch password, hack into the control system, control a car located within a radius of 3 kilometers where Russian officials are located, and use vulnerabilities in the chip to activate autonomous driving mode, staged a zombie siege in the car version.
Reminder: At present, autonomous driving of cars remains in the driver assistance system and semi-automatic driving stage. Google Unmanned Vehicles are positioned for fully autonomous driving, currently traveling over 300000 miles, but can only achieve low-speed driving in specific scenarios.
5. Ice field tracking: low-temperature racing to avoid torpedo bombs
At a Russian military base, family members raced wildly on the ice, torpedoes and bombs chased after the car, and the sound of bombing filled the screen, instantly causing adrenal hormones to surge.
Not to mention ice racing, it is difficult to start a single engine in cold weather at high latitudes. People usually use methods such as preheating in advance or placing the battery in a warm place in advance, and even use the most primitive manual starting method.
Reminder: In high-altitude areas, starting luxury cars, sports cars, and modified cars at low temperatures is not an easy task, let alone racing. The super capacitor low-temperature starting power supply of Jixing Technology SPS can easily handle and start the vehicle engine normally in cold weather.
6. Aircraft: Precise launch of second advance warning aircraft
In the second half of the film, Ian Shaw's flying machine enters the early warning plane and cleverly saves Dominic Toledo's son, which infuriates Sever. From the small and exquisite appearance, the energy supply of the aircraft is not very high, but the ability to catch up with the airborne aircraft in an instant is highly likely due to the role of ground ejection devices.
Reminder: Supercapacitors have characteristics such as high output power density, long lifespan, good safety, and strong environmental adaptability, which can meet the requirements of high-power power supply for aircraft/aircraft ejection devices.
7. Tracker: GPS positioning communication function
Sever initially had doubts about Ian Shaw's ability to track the precise location of Dominic Toledo's son. Knowing that the Cross was a GPS tracker, everything became clear.
Reminder: Using GPS technology for positioning devices is already a very common phenomenon. The combination of GPS technology and communication technology can accurately and timely track the person or object you are looking for. However, the GPS power supply placed inside the cross is a challenge. Firstly, the volume of the positioning object is small, and the space available for energy storage devices is small. Secondly, external charging is difficult, requiring effective utilization of environmental energy. The latest micro energy system technology has emerged to meet these needs, and miniaturized supercapacitors are also suitable for such micro energy systems.
8. Low temperature wireless communication
The plot of the film revolves around Dominic Toledo learning that his son is safe and sound. When the communicator in his hand rang, the cross communicator flashed red. Such wireless communication and low-temperature communication (Dominica is located at a Russian military base) are indeed powerful enough.
Tip: Supercapacitors can be applied to portable devices of this type of wireless technology, such as handheld devices using GSM and GPRS wireless communication. Supercapacitors can provide instantaneous high-power discharge and enhance wireless signal transmission power, especially in low-temperature environments.
There are also many black technologies such as car rain in the film, which have helped the box office of the Super 8 break records against the sky. All of this confirms that black technology is a major guarantee of Hollywood's commercial action blockbuster box office, and the screenwriter does not deny the possibility of a sequel featuring space dramas, which also fills fans with expectations for Speed 9. After all, the drama of space racing is cool enough to think of.
