INTRODUCTION
![Page 3: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Human brain is the most valuable creation and The human is called intelligent because of the brain.
The brain translates the information delivered by the impulses, which then enables the person to react.
But we loss the knowledge of a brain when the body is destroyed after the death of person

•Is there any solution for this?

What is BLUE BRAIN
![Page 6: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Blue Brain-The world’s first virtual brain.
• The IBM now developing a machine that can function as human brain.
• Today scientist are in research to create an artificial brain that can think, response, take decision, and keep anything in memory.
![Page 7: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
So, even after the death of a person we will not loose the knowledge, intelligence, personalities, feelings and memories of that person that can be used for the development of the human society.
No one has ever understood the complexity of human brain. It is complex that any circuitry in the world. So, question may arise “Is it really possible to create human brain?”
The answer is “Yes”.
![Page 8: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cont.It is possible by using a supercomputer, 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 up loaded in to the computer. So the brain and the knowledge, intelligence of any one can be kept and used for ever.

WHY Do WE NEED VIRTUAL BRAIN?
![Page 10: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
To upload the 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 .

FUNCTIONING OF BRAIN
![Page 12: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sensory Input :- Receiving input such as sound, image, feeling… 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 .

Now there is no question how the virtual brain will work.
But the question is how the human brain will be up loaded into it.
This is also possible due to the fast growing technology.
![Page 16: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
UPLOADING HUMAN BRAIN
![Page 17: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
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 .
![Page 18: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
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 like us.
Thus the data stored in the entire brain will be uploaded into the computer.

The research involves studying slices of living brain tissue using patch clamp electrodes. Data is collected about all the many different neuron types.

Research WorkThe project was founded in May 2005 by
Henry Markram at the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland
IBM developing the “Blue Brain”
IBM, in partnership with scientist at Switzerland’s École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) Brain and Mind Institute will begin simulating the brain’s biological systems.

The EPFL Blue Gene was the 8th fastest supercomputer in the world
The "Blue Brain" supercomputer in Lausanne, Switzerland.

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE REQUIRMENT
![Page 23: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A Super computer.
8.096 CPUs at 700 MHZ (downloaded to handle massive parallel processing)
256 MB to 512 MB memory per processor.
A very wide network.
Linux and C++ software .
![Page 24: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
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.
![Page 25: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Blue brain is an approach to store and utilize human intelligence and information present in the mind even after human demise.
It is an important move towards self-decision making by the computer or machine that holds a blue brain. It can be used as an interface between human and animal minds.
• It a good remedy towards human disability like a deaf can get the information via direct nerve simulation.
PROS…

CONS… We become dependent upon the computer
systems .
Others may use technical knowledge against us.
Another fear is found with respect to human cloning.
If in future surrogates to humans are developed then, there will be no human interaction and the world will run on computers only
![Page 27: The Blue Brain Technology](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062821/58a624c21a28ab416c8b5015/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
CONCLUSIONWe will be able to transfer ourselves into
computers at some point & this is just the beginning…..!
It will bring both benefits and harm to human society .
Very soon this technology will be highly accepted whole over the world.
