Surgery or Repair - Real World or Metaverse?

Above: the Cyborg Transhuman cannot get into the Metaverse as it's composed of bio material and machine parts, both of which are not digital and not able to coalesce with the digital world of the Metaverse.

Surgery or Repair - Real World or Metaverse?

Above: the entity which is compatible with the Metaverse is the digital construct. In the next step of transformation, humans become digital entities and have an open door to living in the digital realm of the Metaverse.

Which would you rather undergo, an instant painless digital surgical recovery while in the Metaverse or a long painful suffering recovery in the real world?

This is what TransHumans and Digitals are facing. Transhumans are still half human and half machine, while digitals are completely converted to function in the Metaverse.

It may be some time before humans can stave off going under the knife for surgical slaughter and enduring the rigors of the most painful and long recovery process. It's all about evolution and getting away from the bio components as far as possible.

AI Creates AI

AI Creates AI
Here at the Big Brain AI Lab we have AI life machines being geared up for creating other AI life machines. This is borderline cloning. We can't say the exact level we've achieved because the project is private, but we can say where it's headed!

In a brief history, it all began with experiments in cloning with the Big Brain, when it reached the collective of 240,000 processors. Today, the AI is far advanced with much more capability. Motion control through a humanoid robot can enable the dexterous manufacture and repair of other AI beings. It can also enable the creation, repair and troubleshooting of humans augmented with AI machine interfacing. The AI humanoid robot being created by Elon Musk of TESLA is moving towards achieving the same goals.

Above Image: Is this pure AI humanoid or is this advanced AI augmented humans that are more machine than human? At what part of a transformative human process does the human become machine? Is AI reproduction of AI machines cloning or does it only approximate unique machine life forms and not qualify as cloning? If we reproduce every part of the human body with machine parts, are we still human or have we lost our humanity?

Survivable Multiprocessor Machine

BUILDING A SURVIVABLE MACHINE WITH MULTI PROCESSORS
Can Your Machine Take a Hit and keep on ticking? You know... cosmic ray, project falls to the floor, incoming asteroid, all can upset your precious machine and ruin your day. How can we better ensure the machine will take a hit and bounce right back for more?

At what level can you build a multiprocessor machine which will continue functioning if one or more chips fail? In this blog we will consider some of the ideas required to construct a more reliable machine.

EXPOSED WIRING AND CIRCUITS
Machines with exposed wires and circuit are easily bumped, and oops, a wire is pulled out and the machine no longer functions correctly. Consider when a bump causes a single integrated circuit to dislodge. Another oops. After the machine is built and fully functioning, cover it with microwavable Seran Wrap or a housing containment.

EARTHQUAKE AVOIDANCE
It's almost impossible to avoid earthquakes in some regions of the world unless you move to calmer continents. Unknown to many people, an earthquake often has a rapid vibration effect that can remove paint from walls and ceilings. This high speed oscillatory motion can also effect electronic components and circuits. Pad electronics to absorb oscillations.

SPECIFIC INTERFACE WIRING
The machine with wiring that can continue to function when one or more ICs drop out, is very desirable. To accomplish this, special wiring is required so that the loss of one chip will not hang the interface.

AUTO CHIP REPLACEMENT
Both wiring and software must work together to accomplish the Auto Chip Replacement method, where some unused chips are standing by, ready to fill in for failed chips.

DIAGNOSTICS
On the fly diag is highly useful to determine the stats of each chip. This can be run at power up, mid range, and power down. The trick is to find a test algorithm that functions very effectively and very quickly. Remember, the time required to run the test is multiplied by the number of chips and the number of cores. For a 100 chip machine, this equals 800 cores. If the test requires one minute per core, the test will finish in 800 minutes or 13.3 hours later.

iSOBOT Humanoid Telescope Repair

ROBOT BUILDER POWER
ISOBOT HUMANOID REPAIRS TELESCOPE

A Humanoid Isobot is the first space walking telescope repairing robot astronomer

THE FIRST SPACE-WALKING iSOBOT ASTRONOMER
REPAIRS TELESCOPE
 
Welcome to the 1ST Isobot Space Telescope Repairing Robot! Robots repairing telescopes in space is now commonplace. In this exampling experiment, a Meade refracting telescope and one iSobot humanoid robot were paired together for a kind of exampling telescope repairing space walk. In the example, the humanoid works with the ocular setting.
 
The first repair occurred on Tuesday, February 19th, 2008 on the night of the 97% waxing gibbous Moon.. Brave little i-SOBOT robot is seen space-walking along the main tube optics array of the this Micro Space Telescope to make adjustments to the ocular section. A mechanical camera clamp allows i-SOBOT to have foot-holds during work, as he removes the ocular assembly from the eyepiece holder. This is the first humanoid astronomer to space walk along the tube of a space telescope to initiate an autonomous repair. Humanoid robots are very useful in space, generally requiring no oxygen or respiration equipment and they can work in a wider range of temperatures.

Records set during the event
1) First humanoid astronomer
2) Smallest humanoid astronomer
3) First humanoid telescope repair
4) First humanoid space walk along a telescope
5) First humanoid scientist to adjust a telescope ocular
6) First humanoid programs created to accomplish 1 through 5

Air Travel Chain Effect

AIR TRAVEL CHAIN EFFECT - Stay Safe & Protect Electronics

EVA Airline Technicians inspect wheels and tires before departure. EVA Air is viewed by many as one of the safest and most convenient ways to travel. In a hot climate, aircraft air conditioning is extremely important as well as careful luggage handling and safe flight history.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. How to stay safe and protect electronics during air travel.

Big Brain EXOskeleton As shown in the photo below, the Big Brain Exoskeleton incurred damage during the recent shipment out of China, even though it was carefully wrapped in surrounding blankets. It's always a little confusing - are you on China Air or Air China? The metal brass spacer holding the LCD broke off at the thread position (see top right). The nut with the broken threads is seen just above the top left corner of the white solderless breadboard. Normally such precarious position on the EXO would have a remedy modification for strengthening the mount. However in this case, we like the EXO idea so much, it will be a simple matter to just replace the brass spacer. What's so desirable about the EXO design? Even though mounting wires and components on the outside of the Big Brain machine can compromise its function during rough handling, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. The ease and convenience of wiring, rewiring, examination, inspection, modifications, and upgrades are super easy. Lighting is also at a premium and photographing the layout is easy. For future shipping, remove the LCDs.

OOPS - Big Brain EXOskeleton Broken in luggage

Parallax Penguin Robot

Penguin robots are very strong and sturdy, built with nylon and machined metal. However, Chinese luggage handlers maintain their reputation to be stronger. It's estimated this luggage was dropped from a height of 12 feet. The majority of the shipped assembled penguins broke at the legs linkage connecting to the servo. Most had the white nylon servo linkage (servo horn) that connects the legs linkage to NARO servo broken. This appears to be the weakest link in the Penguin robot chain. For future shipping, remove the servo horns.

Parallax Toddler Robot

The weakest link in the Toddler robot chain is the underside stride linkage. For future shipping, remove the stride servo horn.

Solderless Breadboards

Nylon polymer solderless breadboards, which were wired with Parallax Propeller chips, completely survived the rough handling. They were wrapped in towels. A photographic schematic was first created and interconnecting wires were removed. These boards easily stack during shipping.
