Brain Power

             This representation shows the connectivity of the 10,000 neurons and 30 million connections that make up a single neocortical column. (The different colors correspond to different levels of electrical activity).  Having created a biologically accurate computer model of a neocortical column scientists are now planning to model the entire human brain within just 10 years.

  1. It will be a great treatment for mad.Besides that we can use this technology to develop robot. Then a Robot can be able to work as a human being, play or take care of children,do household chores,and so on.

    Yeah bro... your elaboration about the brain is acceptable. but, i also want to add some of my own points based on my understand concerning to the topic.

    The brain is the most complex organ in the human body, and perhaps the most remarkable part. Actually it functions as a CPU of a computer in order to control all functions of human's body. It’s a gift from Allah s.w.t for his creation in order to learn and understand the greatness and power of their Lords.

    In my point of view, the capacity of human brain is unlimited. As more as we stored data its capacity is increasing. There is an old saying” Brains Builds Ideas And Ideas Can Change the World”. Honestly, all the developments and technological advancements that we see now in this world are all a result of brain and Positive thinkers.

    But, i think, even though the technology is enhancing day to day, still it might be impossible for the human beings (scientists) to compare their tiny knowledge with Allah s.wt and create the entire brain as a real. They might be able to invent an artificial brain set which could function almost the same like usual brain but, for sure the main creator is Allah s.w.t as he mentioned in the holy Al-Quran الله خالق کل شیً Translation: Allah is the creator of All things.

    Brain power, is a greater technology this is because it can make so many people become brilliont brain power, especially the people who have not good memory, so this technology can treat and make humans brain becomes brilliont uatomatically. Basically, this will become popular use by the people in our societies especially, in developed countries. It might be easily for thoes who will use it and they will know about anything in this world. And I beleive that, If the scientists successful building this type of technology our world will become modernized than present world.

    Thanks dears!!!

    I totally agree and support your informative and meaningful points. Even though the organ and mechanism of brain and it's complicated design is needs more pages to explain but, this time again let me breifly explain my understandings about brain and it's functions.


    A brain is the master control for the body; it monitors and regulates the body's actions and reactions. It constantly receives information from the senses about conditions outside and inside our body. The brain however, rapidly analyzes the datas and then sends messages to control the body's action and functions.

    The three main parts of the brain are dedicated to different processes. The brain stem contols breathing, heart rate, and many other vital body processes. The cerebrum is the center of thinking and stores information from past experiences making learning and remembering possible. The cerebellum is responsible for the body's balance, posture, and the coordination of movement.

  5. Thinks Asif for your valuable information . We know that our brain is thousands time powrful than the super computer,so it will not be easy to make humane brain.But if we become able to create it that will be great invention for us.
    Alternately, it may create huge unemployment problem through out the world because all things can be done by the robot.But absolutely this invention has more advantage then disadvantage.

    Well yeah, that's right. It would be a crucial invention if we were able to subtitude human brain for those who have brain damage caused by disease such as alzheimer, stroke, insomnia and the ironic, mad cow disease.

    One time I saw the clip of movie called Crank 2. The protagonis (roled by Jason Statham) was implanted an artificial heart which uses battery to supply power. If by few years we will have had artificial heart, then why not for the brain?

    After reckoning the clip that he use high voltage electric to release the character himself from charging with batteries and pump his heart, I would wonder what kind of power supply can be used to maintain artificial brain to work properly? Since our brains prefer energy from carbohydrates, and hearts prefer energy from fats. This could be a tricky question if the scientist were working on it though...

    Afterall, I may think brain research may get the wished result in the end(if God wishes). Then probably they can develop the "real A.I."
    Artificial Intelligent inside chip where it can help robots to decode better command and perform accurate task in the future. Let's hope the research will help us to undestand how complex is our anatomy and how Great is The Creator of life and us, Glory be to Allah.

    Thanks for your suggestion :)

    There is urguements that human brain is the most vital organ to our body without brain you are nothing, the faction of the brain is well known to all of us, in brief brain is responsible for your walking,replaying,thinking,and mos of your actions, it is free gift to Allh we have to thank allah for this and all his gifts to us.
    on the other han, in my view inventing this artifial brain power would help us in differen ways such as performing many task in short time, also this technology would help more to the coutries wich have non sufficieny lapor.

  9. yes that is brother Silaphone that the brain capacity is unlimited as you can store how long you want. but one thing that i believe is that brain power can not replace how the human being's brain works somehow it may help it to work as the same as the original brain works , it may have artificial brain that looks the original brain works but i will not be the same work . I Can that the people who invented and tired to this kind of technologies they did their best to have a brain can work as the same as the Original one .

    According to the preface or introduction, the researchers began to map the route of brain's complex functions. Thus, perhaps they will do further step with the knowledge they'll gain and harness it as the earlier scientists did to bring the better future.

    Nowadays, there are some scientist developing on brain-commanded robot. They find the reaction that stimulated by the brain and control the robot as the user wish or think. Therefore understanding brain thoroughly can bring benefits to humans lives. However, there is possiblity that this knowledge can be used for erasing bad memory of a person who had painful or sad moments (as the Jim Carrey's "Eternal sunshine of the Spotless Mind" portrayed). May God bless this human race.
