[QUOTE=Maximum7;2284554Basically I’m workshopping science and tech and I would like an opinion on whether these things are doable in the Star Wars galaxy based on existing tech that we already know of in Legends or Canon. Write yes (which means it can easily be done) or write no (meaning it would take scientists some effort to create). You can write a little explanation as to why if you wish. I will provide some info for each. Some are self explanatory.
1.) Optical neurons- Optical computing with the creation of a computer that has artificial neurons.
[/QUOTE]
That actually might be how droids actually work. They have very humanlike intelligence.

2.) Virtual offspring- Creating a sentient being that grows and lives in a computer program
|
Probably not. Artificial personhood seems to be the product of having a mobile body in Star Wars.

3.) Droid-Human hybrid- Created in vitro
|
No.

4.) Dream linking- Linking sentients dreams
|
Probably not without some brain surgery to implant some electrodes.

5.) Hyperneurons- Artificial neurons with billions time the processing power of regular neurons. Help to increase memory due to enhanced longevity.
|
No.

6.) Gel computing- Computing with a gel substance medium
|
It's the kind of thing I could see in an isolated culture like Kamino with divergent technology.
Trivia note. That was Lucas's concept for what the Whills were.

8.) Universal snakebite antidote- Can cure any snake bite from the trillions of snake species in the galaxy.
|
No. A single antidote isn't going to cover all hemotoxic and neurotoxic venoms

9.) Being able to see photons
|
Don't we all do that anyway?
Already standard.

11.) Gene splicing human consciousness into plants
|
What would be the point? Star Wars would already have plants with human consciousness as aliens.

12.) Computer that displays thoughts
|
With brain surgery, sure.

13.) Guided reciprocating deflector shield- Shield that bounces laser blasts back.
|
Doesn't sound unreasonable.

14.) Synthetic life kit - A DIY life creation kit
|
Wildly beyond any biological technology we've ever seen in Star Wars.

15.) An entire Artificial continent grown by genetically modified coral

Doesn't seem like a problem.
