Blue Brain Technology

The document discusses Blue Brain technology, which aims to create a virtual brain by uploading the contents of a natural brain into a machine. It would allow intelligence, knowledge, and skills to be preserved after death. The process would involve nanobots scanning a brain's neurons and connections and inputting that data into a supercomputer simulation. While this could allow immortality of a person's mind, it would also mean relying on computers and risk others misusing uploaded knowledge. The goal of Blue Brain is to generate a fully functioning virtual human brain through continued advances in supercomputing and brain simulation software and hardware.

Introduction

The man is called intelligent because of the brain,but we loss the knowledge
of a brain when body is destroyed after the death.
“Blue Brain”-the name of the first world’s virtual brain. That means a
machine that can function as human brain.
Main aim: To upload human brain into machine.
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.
Why we need virtual brain

To upload contents of natural brain into it.


To keep the intelligence, knowledge and skill of any person for ever.
To remember things without any effect.
Human brain

The brain is made up of billion neurons.


Each neuron about 1000 connections
with other neurons.
The brain’s memory storage capacity
closer to around 2.5 petabytes(or a
million gigabytes).
Working of nanobots
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.

Travelling into the spine and brain, they will


be able to monitor the activity and structure of
our central nervous system.
Cont….

Nanobots will carefully scan the structure of


our brain, providing a complete readout of the
connections between each neuron.

They will be able to provide an interface with


computer that is as close as our mind can be
while we still reside in our biological form.
Blue brain simulation using
microprocessor
The blue brain simulation uses one
microprocessor for each of the 10,000
neurons in the cortical column of a cerebral
cortex.

It helps to built a brain microcircuit, in


order to scale it in human brain.
Blue brain model visualisation

The representation shows the part of the


brain which has been modelled using a
supercomputer.

The visualization is part of an ambitious


project to create a biologically accurate,
functional model of the brain using IBM’s
Blue Gene supercomputer.
Hardware and software requirements

A Super computer.
Processor with a very high processing power.
Micro circuit.
A program to convert electrical impulses from the brain to input signal, which is to
be received by the computer and vice versa.
Very power to nanobots to acts as the interface between the natural brain and
computer.
Advantages of blue brain

 It acts as a supercomputer.
Things could be remembered without any effort.
 Use the intelligence of the person after the death.
It can make decisions entirely of its own.
Disadvantages of blue brain

We become dependent upon the computers.


A very costly procedure of regaining the memory back.
Others may use technical knowledge against us.
conclusion

We will able to transfer ourselves into computers at some point.


Blue brain will allow us to challenge the foundations of our understanding of
intelligence and generate new theories of consciousness.
Eventually aim of applying terrific computer power to the simulation entire
brain.
