INTRODUCTION

The Blue Brain Project is an

attempt to create a virtual mammalian brain.

Simply modeling of Mammalian Brain is

nothing but Modeling of Neural Networks.

FUNCTION OF HUMAN BRAIN

Receiving input such as sound, image etc

through sensor cell. Interpretation of the received input by the

brain .

Receiving of electric response from the brainto perform any action.

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.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO MODEL A

HUMAN BRAIN?

YES,IBM is now developing a

virtual brain known as BLUE BRAIN. IBMs Blue Gene supercomputer allows a

quantum leap in the level of detail at which

the brain can be modeled.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE HUMAN

BRAIN

It would be worlds first virtual brain

In 2030,we will be able to scan ourselves intocomputers

On 1 July , the Brain Mind

Institute(BMI) and

International Business

Machines(IBM) launched the Blue Brain.

The aims of this ambitious initiative are

simulate the brains of mammals with highlevel of biological accuracy.

HOW IT IS POSSIBLE

The first phase: Make a software replica of a

column of the neocortex.

The neocortex constitutes about 85% of the

human brain.

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE

REQUIREMENT FOR MODELLING THEBRAIN

Memory with a very large storing capacity.

Processor with very high processing power.

A very wide network

A program to convert e electric impulse fromthe brain to input signal, which is received bya computer and vice versa.

Very power full Nanobots to interfacebetween brain and computer.

Finally it is a

SUPERCOMPUTER

UPLOADING HUMAN BRAINS

The uploading is possible by the use

of small robots known as the

NANOBOTS.

These robots are small enough to travel

through our circulatory system.

UPLOADING HUMAN BRAIN

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 function asus.

ADVANTAGES

Intelligence of a person is not lost even after

his death. Things can be remembered easily without

much effort.

Allowing deaf to hear via nerve simulation. Making decisions

DISADVANTAGES

We become dependent upon the computer.

Others may use technical knowledge against

us.

Another fears found today with to humancloning.

CONCLUSION

We will be able to transfer ourselves into

computer at some point. It will bring both benefits and harm to human

society.

Very soon this technology will be highlyaccepted whole over the world.
