2, completely independent? Apple purchase foundry in the United States. According to foreign media reports, the company in the north of SAN jose bought a chip production factory, the factory covers an area of 70000 square feet, apple paid $18.2 million. After the chip factory is Maxim semiconductor company Integrated manufacturer of (the letter), according to the chip factory production, suitable for use in a prototype trial production and small batch production. From the perspective of the area of the factory, it is too small, not suitable for large number of chip production. Mation from samsung in 1997 bought the chip factory, but then they withdrew from the consumer electronics market, so there would be shut down the chip production factory.

Second, the virtual reality
1, the NASA space robot with SONY playstation VR technology to assist training. NASA's aeronautics and space administration (American countries) has been working with SONY to use VR technology to help the operator training space robot. NASA Robonaut 2 is a humanoid robot, it has the arms, hands, fingers, movement mode and human beings, but for the space design of flexible robots still failed to fully achieve goals. In order to solve this problem, NASA is trying to use human input instruction humanoid robots. Modern VR (virtual reality) technology may be the best choice, it can let robot remote imitate people's actions. NASA recently released with SONY a is called the Mighty Morphenaut "video, presented their results. They developed a called "Mighty Morphenaut" PlayStation VR virtual reality application, the application can create a big empty tank simulation, make the operator learning control space robot and remote complete space operations.
