This presentation is about a new emerging technology BLUE BRAIN . It is a machine or we can say a virtual brain that will act like a human brain and can retain information of human brain in it . If scientists will know clearly about how human brain functions then development of blue brain will surely lead to the new generation of super computers. Blue brain helps in storing the information of human brain. After the death of any person we can store his/her intelligence in blue brains . It is a kind of small chip . It will also helpful in treatment of Parkinssion Disease.

3. INTRODUCTION
 Human brain , the most valuable creation of god . The man is
called intelligent because of brain but we loss the knowledge of
brain when the body is destroyed after death .
 “BLUE BRAIN” – the name of the world’s first virtual brain
that means a machine which can function as a human brain .

4. WHAT IS BLUE BRAIN
 Is it really possible to create a human brain?
 “YES”, The IBM is now developing a virtual brain known as
the BLUE BRAIN.
 It would be the world’s first virtual brain. Within 30 years, we
will be able to scan ourselves into the computers.

5. WHAT IS VIRTUAL BRAIN
 A machine that can function as brain.
 It can take decision.
 It can think.
 It can response.
 It can keep things in memory.

6. NEED OF VIRTUAL BRAIN
 To upload contents of the natural brain into it .
 To keep the intelligence , knowledge and skill of any person for
ever .
 To remember things without any effort .

7. FUNCTIONING OF HUMAN BRAIN
 Sensory Input :- Receiving input such as sound ,image, etc
through sensory cell .
 Interpretation:- Interpretation of the received input by the
brain by defining states of neurons in the brain.
 Motor Output:- Receiving of electric responses from the
brain to perform any action .

8. UPLOADING HUMAN BRAIN
 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.
 Traveling into the spine and brain, they will be able to monitor
the activity and structure of our central nervous system.
 They will be able to provide an interface with computer while
we still reside in our biological form .

9. CONTD.
 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

10. EXAMPLES OF BLUE BRAIN
 A very good example of utilization of blue brain is the
case "short term memory".
 A another situation is that when a person gets older, then
he starts forgetting or takes a bit more time to recognize to
a person.
 For the above reason we can use blue brain. It is a simple
chip that can be installed into the human brain for which
the short term memory at the old age can be avoided.

11. BLUE BRAIN PROJECT OBJECTIVES
 The project will search for insights into how human beings
think and remember.
 Scientists think that blue brain could also help to cure the
Parkinson's disease.
 If the scientists can crack open the secret of how and why the
brain does it, the knowledge could lead to new breed of
supercomputers.

12. CURRENT RESEARCH WORK
 IBM is developing the “Blue brain” .
 IBM, in partnership with scientists at Switzerland’s Ecole
Polytechnique Federal De Lausanne’s(EPFL) Brain and Mind
Institute will begin simulating the brain’s biological systems.

13. REQUIREMENTS
 A Super computer.
 Memory with a very large storing capacity.
 Processor with a very high processing power.
 A very wide network.
 A program to convert the electric impulses from the brain to
input signal, which is to be received by the computer and vice
versa.
 very powerful Nanobots to act as the interface between the
natural brain and the computer.

14. 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.

15. DISADVANTAGES
 We become dependent upon the computer .
 Others may use technical knowledge against us.
 Another fear is found with respect to human cloning.
 A very costly procedure of regaining the memory back.
4/19/2018 15

16. CONCLUSION
 We will be able to transfer ourselves into computers at some
point.
 It will bring both benefits and harm to human society .
 Very soon this technology will be highly accepted all over the
world.
