Definitely an interesting take on the "coding" of DNA.
Something that has always interested me is similarities in natural and unnatural mechanisms, like how modern cameras mimic eyes right down to the tiny motors that drive the auto-focus mechanisms.
The long sequence of nucleotides reminds me of a strange sort of Turing machine capable of building humans.
- dekhn 9y agothe big difference between modern cameras and eyes is that a huge amount of neural processing is done in the retina of the eye. There aren't any cameras (that I know of) that compute such sophisticaed levels of processing (edge detecting, contrast detecting, motion detecting) within the sensor package.
- kevin_thibedeau 9y agoThere are CMOS sensors with in-array edge detection. More flexibly, all optical mice have integrated sensors that do motion processing in the same package if not the same die.
