What is Mind Uploading..??

3

Mind uploading or whole brain emulation

(sometimes called mind transfer) is the

hypothetical process of scanning and mapping a biological brain in detail

and copying its state into a computer system or

another computational device.

Black box signal processing model

Understands the functioning and interaction of neurons and synapses and how the neurons respond to nerve impulses…

7

A sufficiently complex and accurate model of the neurons is required which should include :

SYNAPTIC ADAPTAPTATION

METABOLISM

NEUROMODULATORS

NEUROTRANSMITTERS

ION CHANNELS

patient's brain is made solid.

Next, the brain is cut into very thin slices.

Each slice is scanned. The computer uses this data to reconstruct the patient's brain circuitry.

The simulation is activated.

MORAVEC PROCEDURE

11

HANS MORAVEC proposed a robot surgeon having billions of nanometer-scale sensitive fingers. The tiny fingers on the manipulator start peeling away cells, exposing the brain. With electrical and chemical sensors on the fingertips.

12

• It monitors the activity of

all the exposed brain cells.

• Then it configures a

simulation to reproduce

their activity.

• It then removes those

cells, and connects the

remaining brain tissue to

the simulation.

• Layer by layer, it

proceeds in this manner

until the patient's head is

empty.

NANOREPLACEMENT PROCEDURE

13

Billions of microscopic machines are injected into the brain.

They take up residence in or near the neurons and learn from them.

The neurons of the brain are replaced with nanomachine actuators.

Here H is the brainRed dots are the brain cells.Blue dots are the nanomachine actuators.

Brain is being replaced, bit by bit on a microscopic level.

HARDWARE FOR UPLOADING

17

The speed and storage capacity

required are simply too vast.

18

In the brain, every molecule is a powerful computer .

Literally computers are needed that are trillions of times bigger and faster than anything existing today.
