Abstract

分析机构德勤的研究显示,元宇宙已在临床手术、医疗机器人、医疗教学、药物及医疗器械研发、AI超级医生等五个方面开始落地。

元宇宙游戏、元宇宙社交、元宇宙电商……自2021年元宇宙元年之后,这个概念就成为继「互联网+」后又一股风潮,哪个行业都恨不得「+」上一下,蹭上所谓的风口,赢得流量的眼球。于是,需要身体力行的养生也来了。

有媒体报道,山东朱氏药业集团发布「元域养生3.0」计划,欲开发「朱氏元宇宙」实现「元养生」,涉及的元素包括数字藏品、虚拟人。不过,细寻详情,该公司的元宇宙计划还处于概念阶段,落地方向存疑。

事实上,包含在元宇宙范畴之内的AR、VR、AI、数字孪生等硬核技术与大健康产业的结合早已有之。分析机构德勤的研究显示,元宇宙已在临床手术、医疗机器人、医疗教学、药物及医疗器械研发、AI超级医生等五个方面开始落地。

这意味着,真正落地有价值的技术哪怕没有元宇宙的包装同样会走向应用,而那些仅用元宇宙概念营销的公司需要警惕。

养生也能元宇宙?

「元宇宙,英文对照名『metaverse』,释义为:人类运用数字技术构建的,有现实世界映射或超越现实世界,可与现实世界交互的虚拟世界。」这是今年9月全国科学技术名词审定委员会经与学界、产业界经研讨后给出的一个释义。

这个概念从2021年底风靡全球,行至2022年,当游戏、社交、电商、房地产甚至农业都在探索与它结合时,更偏门的产业来了——养生。

11月25日,《山城日报》消息,山东朱氏药业集团(以下简称「朱氏药业」)将发布「元域养生3.0」计划,结合虚拟现实、VR技术、5G、区块链、物联网等技术,为元宇宙落地提供思路。

养生也能用上区块链和VR?元宇宙养生怎么养?

报道显示,朱氏药业希望建立一个包含产品体验、社交中心、产品展示、虚拟人格、数字藏品、医疗诊断等多种元素的沉浸式数字空间,通过智能穿戴和健康食品服务,整合数字医院、数字孪生人等技术,将大健康产业与元宇宙结合。报道配图,这个沉浸式数字空间将被命名为「朱氏元宇宙」。

又是虚拟人,又是数字藏品,「元域养生3.0」计划的确覆盖了当下元宇宙的诸多元素。但这个计划到底如何实施?具体有哪些产品?《山城日报》的报道中没有,朱氏药业的官方渠道也找不到。这个元宇宙养生项目似乎还停留在构想层面。

公开资料显示,山东朱氏药业集团有限公司成立于2003年12月,总部位于山东单县。是一家集医疗器械、防疫产品、贴剂贴膏、冷敷凝胶、化妆品等生产与销售、物流配送为一体企业。官网显示,朱氏药业集团服务于大型药企、微商、直销、电商等业态,提供自营产品和贴牌代加工产品,主要产品包括各种冷敷贴、理疗贴和口罩等。

从朱氏药业的主业看,微商、电商是它主要的线上销售渠道,它的业务和产品与需要将虚拟和现实结合的元宇宙并不沾边。读者也无法想象,贴膏药、戴口罩、敷药剂这些需要身体力行才能实现效果的产品,如何虚拟化?一个药业公司发行的数字藏品能以什么为内容,又有何收藏价值?在医疗诊断已经可在线实现的情况下,一个靠微商、直销、电商为销售渠道的公司,是否具备搭建一个供医患沟通病情完成诊断的虚拟医院之能力?

这些答案或许只能等「朱氏元宇宙」上线后才能一睹真容。不过,有元宇宙行业的观察人士分析,所谓的元宇宙养生,或只是建立一个虚拟场景,以便用户可以操纵虚拟人从中选购各种保健品,「至少从目前已经存在的VR、AR、AI等元宇宙产业的技术来看,通过这些技术构建一个虚拟空间然后实现养生,这个场景有点荒唐。」

另一家媒体《财讯界》的报道中,朱氏药业董事长朱坤福称,就当下的技术条件而言,元宇宙更多是一种对现实世界的扩展,利用技术革新建立数字化虚拟空间,通过智能穿戴设备进行交互和体验,作为企业推广理念、产品、服务的一种手段延伸。

从朱氏药业董事长的表态看,汇集了各种技术的「元宇宙」很可能是该公司实现品牌推广的手段。当前,「朱氏元宇宙」见诸媒体但看不到产品,「元宇宙养生」这个概念,营销意义大过实际应用。

元宇宙+大健康早就来了

「元宇宙养生」概念的出现足见传统行业面对风口时的焦急,但事实上,科技与大健康行业的结合早就来了,其中不乏虚拟现实(VR)、增强现实(AR)、数字孪生这些如今才被涵盖进元宇宙概念中的硬核技术。但相比养生、保健这种泛健康产业,元宇宙技术对医疗更见价值力。

以VR为例,这项利用计算机生成的交互式三维动态视景技术,从2018年开始就进入了临床医疗领域。全球知识产权综合信息服务提供商IPRdaily的数据显示,临床医疗领域VR相关专利的申请趋势逐年上涨,其中2019、2020和2018这三年申请的专利数量最多,分别为4463件、4354件和3450件,占分析数据的16.913%、16.5%和13.074%。而中国大陆和美国的专利权人公开的专利数量最多,分别为15556件和5881件,占分析数据的58.951%和22.287%。

这些专利的出现早于2021年的元宇宙元年。到了2022年,VR在医疗行业已经从技术走向落地,甚至走向临床。比如,美国专注于VR医疗的Vicarious Surgical公司,已研发出一种替代外科手术的机器人系统,启用两个机械臂和一个摄像头在一个仅1.5厘米宽的切口上,面向任何方向进行工作,为外科医生提供灵巧性和使用范围的同时,提供腹部表面的立体成像。而医生则可以通过佩戴VR眼镜、操纵手柄,以全景般的逼真感进入患者腹腔,进行外科手术的操作。

Vicarious Surgical开发的手术机器人

在医疗机器人方面,XR Health的VR头显,可让患者在家中进行康复训练,通过人工智能云计算算法和事实数据分析,便于医生实现远程监控和指导。在医疗教学方面,Oculus头盔可在智能手机上模拟如何正确地穿戴和脱卸防护装备。

而广泛运用多媒体、三维建模、传感等多手段将计算机生成的文图、视频、3D模型等虚拟信息模拟仿真后对真实世界增强的AR技术,在大健康产业中形成的产品化趋势更强、应用范围也更广。

早在2020年,就已经有30家初创公司专注于AR医疗应用领域。动脉网蛋壳研究院数据显示,当年有9家初创公司获得融资,总融资额达到5.52亿美元。获投项目的服务对象覆盖了医疗机构、实验室和盲人,其中针对医疗机构的主要是患者的数字信息、血管照明、手术教学、外科手术导航、外科手术模拟训练等。

当年,应用了AR和AI技术的视力导航应用OrCam早已量产,通过可穿戴的眼镜+耳机帮助盲人或视障人士从任何表面阅读文本、识别面孔和颜色。如今,这个产品都已经更新换代甚至衍生出了更多产品,包括像点读笔一样的手持设备,为视障人士用于读取、识别和学习。

随着大数据、5G和移动互联网的发展,到了2022年,中国工业AR应用解决方案供应商已经将AR技术应用于医疗设备制造了,利用该技术实现医疗设备的产线与设备产线巡检、产线数字孪生loT(物联网)可视化;在产线上,巡检员工可使用AR眼镜、手机和平板电脑等多种移动终端,立体透视整体设备的运行状态与参数值,提升巡检效率和准确度。

分析机构德勤近期的研究显示,元宇宙在健康医疗行业主要有五大方面应用,包括临床手术、医疗机器人、医疗教学、药物及医疗器械研发以及AI超级医生领域。

事实上,无论是单向应用于现实,还是结合虚拟与现实,元宇宙的技术在大健康产业的应用早就开始了,如今不过是将早已存在的场景打包进了「元宇宙」这个新概念里,制造出一种新风口的想象。

如果非要将大健康再「元」得高级一点,我们只能想象,未来,VR、AR、AI将借助5G和物联网的升级,构建出虚拟医院空间,打通医生与患者沟通的时空壁垒,减少人们看病、就医、疗养、保健环节中的成本浪费。这或许是元宇宙对健康产业的价值,而这个价值绝不会是某个医药公司发行个数字藏品、打造个虚拟人就能实现的。

What is $BITCOIN

DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): A Comprehensive Analysis Introduction to DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a blockchain-based project operating on the Solana network, which aims to combine the characteristics of traditional precious metals with the innovation of decentralized technologies. While it shares a name with Bitcoin, often referred to as “digital gold” due to its perception as a store of value, DIGITAL GOLD is a separate token designed to create a unique ecosystem within the Web3 landscape. Its goal is to position itself as a viable alternative digital asset, although specifics regarding its applications and functionalities are still developing. What is DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a cryptocurrency token explicitly designed for use on the Solana blockchain. In contrast to Bitcoin, which provides a widely recognized value storage role, this token appears to focus on broader applications and characteristics. Notable aspects include: Blockchain Infrastructure: The token is built on the Solana blockchain, known for its capacity to handle high-speed and low-cost transactions. Supply Dynamics: DIGITAL GOLD has a maximum supply capped at 100 quadrillion tokens (100P $BITCOIN), although details regarding its circulating supply are currently undisclosed. Utility: While precise functionalities are not explicitly outlined, there are indications that the token could be utilized for various applications, potentially involving decentralized applications (dApps) or asset tokenization strategies. Who is the Creator of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? At present, the identity of the creators and development team behind DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) remains unknown. This situation is typical among many innovative projects within the blockchain space, particularly those aligning with decentralized finance and meme coin phenomena. While such anonymity may foster a community-driven culture, it intensifies concerns about governance and accountability. Who are the Investors of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? The available information indicates that DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) does not have any known institutional backers or prominent venture capital investments. The project seems to operate on a peer-to-peer model focused on community support and adoption rather than traditional funding routes. Its activity and liquidity are primarily situated on decentralized exchanges (DEXs), such as PumpSwap, rather than established centralized trading platforms, further highlighting its grassroots approach. How DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) Works The operational mechanics of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) can be elaborated on based on its blockchain design and network attributes: Consensus Mechanism: By leveraging Solana’s unique proof-of-history (PoH) combined with a proof-of-stake (PoS) model, the project ensures efficient transaction validation contributing to the network's high performance. Tokenomics: While specific deflationary mechanisms have not been extensively detailed, the vast maximum token supply implies that it may cater to microtransactions or niche use cases that are still to be defined. Interoperability: There exists the potential for integration with Solana’s broader ecosystem, including various decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. However, the details regarding specific integrations remain unspecified. Timeline of Key Events Here is a timeline that highlights significant milestones concerning DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): 2023: The initial deployment of the token occurs on the Solana blockchain, marked by its contract address. 2024: DIGITAL GOLD gains visibility as it becomes available for trading on decentralized exchanges like PumpSwap, allowing users to trade it against SOL. 2025: The project witnesses sporadic trading activity and potential interest in community-led engagements, although no noteworthy partnerships or technical advancements have been documented as of yet. Critical Analysis Strengths Scalability: The underlying Solana infrastructure supports high transaction volumes, which could enhance the utility of $BITCOIN in various transaction scenarios. Accessibility: The potential low trading price per token could attract retail investors, facilitating wider participation due to fractional ownership opportunities. Risks Lack of Transparency: The absence of publicly known backers, developers, or an audit process may yield skepticism regarding the project's sustainability and trustworthiness. Market Volatility: The trading activity is heavily reliant on speculative behavior, which can result in significant price volatility and uncertainty for investors. Conclusion DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) emerges as an intriguing yet ambiguous project within the rapidly evolving Solana ecosystem. While it attempts to leverage the “digital gold” narrative, its departure from Bitcoin's established role as a store of value underscores the need for a clearer differentiation of its intended utility and governance structure. Future acceptance and adoption will likely depend on addressing the current opacity and defining its operational and economic strategies more explicitly. Note: This report encompasses synthesised information available as of October 2023, and developments may have transpired beyond the research period.
