3. Introduction…
“Blue brain” –The name of the world’s first virtual brain. That
means a machine that can function as human brain.
The IBM(International Business Machines Corporation)is now
developing a virtual brain known as the BLUE BRAIN.
IBM, in partnership with scientists at Switzerland’s EPFL(Ecole
Polytechnique Federal De Lausanne’s) Brain and Mind Institute
will begin simulating the brain’s biological systems.
It would be the worlds first virtual brain
Expected span of project completion :30 years.
4. Construction ??
How should it possess it work ?
A machine that can function as brain
Indirectly what it has to do is to :
think like brain,
take decisions based on the past experience,
and response as the natural brain can.
How is it possible ?
5. THE BUILD :
It is possible by using a super computer, with a huge
amount of storage capacity, processing power and an
interface between the human brain and this artificial one .
Through this interface the data stored in the natural brain
can be uploaded into the computer .
6. Uploading the database !!..
• The uploading is possible by the use
of small robots known as the
nanobots.
• These robots are small enough to travel
through out our circulatory system,
spine & brain will be able to monitor the
activity and structure of our
central nervous system.
• Nanobots could also carefully scan the structure of our brain, providing a
complete readout of the connection.
• This information, when entered into a computer, could then continue to
function as us.
• Thus the data stored in the entire brain will be uploaded into the
computer.
7. OUTPUT-Through
a silicon chip.
PROCESSING
Through arithmetic and logical calculation
and artificial intelligence;
MEMORY
Through Secondary memory.
8. Advantages..
• Remembering things without any effort.
• Making decision without the presence of a person.
• Using intelligence of a person after the death .
• Understanding the activities of animals
• Allowing the deaf to hear via direct nerve stimulation.
Disadvantages…
Dependency upon the computer,
Others may use technical knowledge against us.
Human cloning.
9. Conclusion
We will be able to transfer ourselves into computers at some point.
It will bring both benefits and harm to human society.
Eventually aim of applying terrific computer power to the simulation of an
entire brain.
Very soon this technology will be highly accepted whole over the world.
