Robot with Biological Brain - The future of Computer Hardware

[COMCAM]

---

University of Reading scientists have developed a robot controlled by a biological brain formed from cultured neurons. And this is a world’s premiere. Other research teams have tried to control robots with ‘brains,’ but there was always a computer in the loop. This new project is the first one to examine ‘how memories manifest themselves in the brain, and how a brain stores specific pieces of data.’ As life expectancy is increasing in most countries, this new research could provide insights into how the brain works and help aging people. In fact, the main goal of this project is to understand better the development of diseases and disorders which affect the brain such as Alzheimer or Parkinson diseases. It’s interesting to note that this project is being led by Professor Kevin Warwick, who became famous in 1998 when a silicon chip was implanted in his arm to allow a computer to monitor him in order to assess the latest technology for use with the disabled.

nice post bro....informative..

[AMD_infinium05]

lau na jud ang naabot sa tawo.... I HOPE so that these technologies couldnt be a threat a mankind...

what is making a machine, in the long run, ang imong gihimo ang mohurot ninyo... so this is biological brain, it could absorb right and wrong...

[-shinobi-]

nice post bro. informative jud. maka learn ta.
pero if mao ni, duda ko mahitabo tong sa salida sa terminator

/me wants robocop!

I just hope these developers have seen terminator movies, just imagine a robot with character! If killer nga robot, I shall name him Killbot lol!

basin atong mga PC sa future are cloned brains in a bottle LOLZ LOLZ LOLZ

then butangan dayun ug neoon lights para cute tan awun... the only bad thing is that mu deteriorate lang ang organic materials

this reminds me of transformers. remember the part where those robots hack the pentagon via organic hacking rather than digital hacking? it was fukken awesome.

organic hacking - takes you only seconds to hack the pentagon servers
digital hacking - takes you 10 years to hack the pentagon servers even if you use the world's most powerful supercomputer ever.

this is going to be the future of computing. reach another planets, divide and conquer, die, find another plane, rinse and repeat.

I also believe that this is also the future for cars, a driver that doesn't sleep, smoke and eat!

atot ani oist,... d na jud ni matabang pagka hi tech.... padayon na jud ni ang imposible ma posible...
