Biomimetics and Bionic Applications with Clinical Applications

Abstract

Noise is considered an artefact, in the practical use it is overcome by cool down the system in general at 77 K. We consider three biological examples which overcome noise by filtering the ratio between the signals and noise by using a distribution system. Noise is considered here in statistical terms poison, where the incident photon or otherwise in a detector and the detector has not influence and cannot increase.
