3. ABSTRACT
• This paper describes about BLUE BRAIN TECHNOLOGY.
• Human Brain is the most remarkable creation of God.
• The man is intelligent because of the brain.
• Blue Brain is the name of the world’s first virtual brain. This means that the machine
can function as human brain.
• Today scientists are in research to create an artificial brain that can think, response,
take decision, and keep anything in memory.
• The main aim is to upload human brain into machine. So that man can think, take
decision without any effort.
• Even after the death of the person, the virtual brain will act as the man.

4. INTRODUCTION
• This project was started in May 2005 by HENRY MARKRAM at the Ecole Polytechnique
Federale de Lanusanne (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland.
• The goals and objectives of this project are to upload the contents of the natural brain in a
Computer.
• Mind uploading can be done by either of the two methods:
1. Copy and transfer.
2. Slow and steady replacement of neurons.
• When the body is shattered after the demise of man the knowledge of a brain is lost. That
knowledge might have been used for the progress of the human culture.
• The simulations are carried out by BLUE GENE SUPERCOMPUTER built by IBM,
hence the name Blue Brain.

5. WHAT IS BLUE BRAIN?
 “BLUE BRAIN” - The name of the
world’s first virtual brain. That means a
machine that can function as human
brain.
 The idea behind BLUE BRAIN is to
know some aspects of human
identification.
 The IBM is now developing a virtual
brain known as Blue Brain. It would be
the world’s first virtual brain.

6. WHAT IS VIRTUAL BRAIN?
• A Machine that can function as
brain.
• It can take Decision.
• It can Think.
• It can Respond.
• It can keep things in Memory.

7. WHY WE NEED BLUE BRAIN?
 Intelligence of the individual is an inborn quality which is lost after the death.
The virtual brain is a solution to it.
 The intelligence of a person can be used even after their death.
 In this fast moving world it is difficult to remember everything. So by using
virtual brain we can upload them into a computer.
 Virtual Brain, comparatively has more intelligence than the natural brain.

8. WORKING 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.

9. BRAIN SIMULATION
SI.NO NATURAL BRAIN SIMULATED BRAIN
1 INPUT :
Through the natural neurons
INPUT : Through the silicon chip or
artificial neurons
2 INTERPRETATION :
By different states of the
neurons in the brain.
INTERPRETATION :
By a set of bits in the set of register
3 OUTPUT :
Through the natural neurons
OUTPUT :
Through the silicon chip

10. BRAIN SIMULATION(Cont.)
SI.NO NATURAL BRAIN SIMULATED BRAIN
4 PROCESSING :
Through arithmetic and logical
calculations
PROCESSING :
Through arithmetic and logical
calculation and artificial intelligence
5 MEMORY :
Through permanent states of
neurons.
MEMORY :
Through secondary memory

11. 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.

12. UPLOADING HUMAN BRAIN (Cont.)
• They will be able to provide an interface with computer while we still reside in our
biological form.
• 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.

13. HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
REQUIREMENT
 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
 We can remember things without any effort.
 Decision can be made without the presence of a person.
 Even after the death of a man his intelligence can be used.
 The activity of different animals can be understood.
 It would allow the deaf to hear via direct nerve stimulation, and also be helpful for
many psychological diseases.

15. DISADVANTAGES
 We become dependent upon the computer systems.
 Technical knowledge of a person may be stolen.
 There is fear of human cloning.
 Once a person’s neural schema is hacked, the brain could be against the
person.

BRAIN

17. 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 whole over the world.
