Hardware is our body itself
Processor & Memory -> the place of decision making, usually the head
Sensors & Actuators -> muscles and low-level receptors
Communication & I/O -> eyes, ears, throat, arms
Power Supply -> heart, lungs, stomach

Software is the logic that drives our body:
Main program -> our thoughts and decisions
User Interface -> our senses and tongue
Hardware drivers -> our subconscious which drives the body
