Resonator chains have the task to recognize objects. An object
is a combination of signals coming from nerves.
Note that the procedure below is not necessary the exact way how
the brain handles the process chemically. It is just demonstrating
the principles of resonator chains and their ability to recognize
vast amount of data in a split of a second.

The yellow, blue and red groups in the T column are transmitter
molecules in transmitter brain cells. The transmitter brain cells
are connected to nerves coming from the senses.
The columns 1,2 and 3 are the Resonator Chains. Each resonator
chain contains receiver molecules that respond with resonance when
the corresponding transmitter molecule is activated.
Each receiver molecules has the ability to operate a switch. There
are several ways how these switches are implemented, but this is not
so important for the understanding of the process.
The boxes at the top provide a constant recognition signal
and a stronger programming signal when during learning.
Learning
Assume that only the yellow signal arrives from the nerve and we
want a recognition chain to recognize this event.
When the transmitter brain cell connected to the yellow nerve receives
a signal it will force the yellow transmitter molecule to oscillate.
This signal is received by the yellow receiver molecules in the resonator
chains and they close their switches.

Now the programming signal is applied to the first resonator chain.
The yellow switch is closed therefore it passes through to the yellow
switch.
The blue switch is open and the programming signal cannot go further.
Now a simple rule applies. When a switch is open the programming
signal closes the switch permanently and disables the resonator
to activate the switch.
The same happens when the programming signal hits the open red switch.
The programming signal disables this switch as well and arrives at
the object molecule at the bottom of the chain.

The result of the programming is shown above. The disabled switches
are pink and the group at the bottom is marked by a yellow sphere
to indicate that this is an object molecule which we can call YELLOW.

These pictures are the programming results for the objects BLUE-RED
and YELLOW-RED.

This is the result when programming is finished.
- Yellow can be recognized by chain one.
- Blue/Red can be recognized by chain two.
- Yellow red can be recognized by chain three.
You may have already noticed that two objects are recognizing the
yellow/red combination. This is actually not a disadvantage because
it tells the brain that several objects are included in a pattern.
With increasing numbers of resonators this problem is reduced, but
it may be responsible for the fact that we get confused by certain
sound and visual patterns.
Combination of Resonator Chains

The real advantage of resonator chains is that the object molecules
can be used as transmitter molecules to form new objects in other
resonator chains.
Combined objects can come from different senses, eyes, ears, smell
taste or touch and are processed instantly and simultaneously.
Combined objects can be fed into resonator chains attached to nerves
which activate mussels. In this way each mussel has a sort of individual
address.
Event Chains
Event chains are necessary to identify sequential processes like
speech.
In an event chain the recognition signal is not fed through switches,
it is passed on from one resonator to the next and finally reaches
the event transmitter. If the last event is fed back into the first
we have a timer.
A mixture of timer events, sequential events and objects can be
used to control complex movements like the flight of a bumblebee,
not an easy task in real time.
Conclusions
Resonator chains are a simple and very fast method to implement
nearly instant recognition and reaction.
In addition it is a process that requires no boot process, which
is the initial program that every computer must have. Resonator
chains and senses can evolve in life by errors in the copying of
sensors. Errors are not errors any more - they increase the bandwidth
of the sense and therefore its accuracy.
