Programming and Metaprogramming in the Human Biocomputer: Theory and Experiments is a 1968 book by John C. Lilly. In the book, "the doctor imagines the brain as a piece of computer technology." [1] More specifically, he uses "the analogy of brain being the hardware, the mind being the software and consciousness being beyond both." [2]
Gesture recognition offers a path for computers to begin to better understand and interpret human body language, previously not possible through text or unenhanced graphical (GUI) user interfaces. Gestures can originate from any bodily motion or state, but commonly originate from the face or hand.
The science is still in its infancy, and human trials are limited. Some critics cite the privacy concerns inherent in machines capable of scanning signals from a person's brain.
In relation to computers and body language, research is being done with the use of mathematics in order to teach computers to interpret human movements, hand gestures and even facial expressions. This is different from the normal way people generally communicate with computers for example with the click of the mouse, keyboard, or any physical ...
Machine hearing, also known as machine listening or computer audition is the ability of a computer or machine to take in and process sound data such as speech or music. [8] [9] This area has a wide range of application including music recording and compression, speech synthesis and speech recognition. [10]
Articulated body pose estimation in computer vision is the study of algorithms and systems that recover the pose of an articulated body, which consists of joints and rigid parts using image-based observations. It is one of the longest-lasting problems in computer vision because of the complexity of the models that relate observation with pose ...
Next time you pick up a “smart” device, like a book or a phone, pause mid-use to reflect on your body posture. You are watching a video or writing an email perhaps.
An artificial brain (or artificial mind) is software and hardware with cognitive abilities similar to those of the animal or human brain. [1] Research investigating "artificial brains" and brain emulation plays three important roles in science: An ongoing attempt by neuroscientists to understand how the human brain works, known as cognitive ...
