Biomimetic Humanoid Robots with Human Consciousness

Mohsen Shahinpoor has served as a chaired professor emeritus and researchdirector at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Maine College ofEngineering and Computing, University of Maine, USA. In the university, hehas also served as the Richard C. Hill chaired professor; professor of biomedicalscience and engineering; and director of the Advanced Robotics Laboratory,which focuses on smart materials, artificial muscles, tissue engineering,manufacturing, and advanced biomedical engineering and robotic surgery. He isalso actively involved in research and development in biomimetics, soft and flexible robotics, smartbiomimetic wearable robotic braces, electroactive materials, artificial muscles, and ionic polymermetal composites (IPMCs). He has also been active in promoting biomimetic humanoid robotsequipped with human-like consciousness and digital immortal life of the future.

“This book offers a captivating glimpse into the future of humanity and artificial intelligenceand envisions a compelling ‘non-fiction scenario’ in which humans (the Master) can achieve aform of immortality through the creation of look-alike biomimetic humanoid robots (the Master’sHumanoid), endowed with human consciousness through the process of loading and transferring theconsciousness to the humanoid robot. Perhaps the most striking aspect of this vision is its potentialfor space exploration and interplanetary colonization. The author paints a picture of humanoidrobots, unencumbered by biological limitations, traveling through space using quantum entanglementphenomena, potentially becoming ‘aliens’ that visit other planets. The book’s innovative visionextends beyond individual immortality to preserving humanity’s collective intellectual and culturalheritage. By creating these advanced humanoids, the author proposes to safeguard human knowledgeand experiences that might otherwise be lost due to environmental threats or the Earth’s eventualuninhabitability. Most fascinating is the concept of ‘identity-vita-assigned’ consciousness, which theauthor proposes as a framework for endowing humanoid robots with a sense of self, purpose, andsentience. The book is essential for anyone interested in the future of humanity and its relationshipwith technology. It offers a bold reimagining of human survival and legacy in the face of cosmictimescales and challenges. It envisions a future where the boundaries between human and machineblur and consciousness becomes a transferable, potentially immortal entity. This groundbreakingvision challenges our understanding of identity, consciousness, and the fundamental nature of humanexistence within the universe.”-Prof. Dr Marzieh Memar, University of Texas at San Antonio, USA.
