RealFeedApp Biohybrid computing uses living neurons to process data
Researchers at the University of Bristol developed biohybrid neural networks capable of reading Braille and controlling robot dogs. The study, published in Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, details the integration of living cells with electronic components.
- Field
- the brain and neuroscience
- What they did
- Researchers created a biohybrid system where living neurons, grown in a lab, are connected to electronics to read Braille and control robot dogs.
- Why it matters
- This could help robots and computers learn from experience by processing information in parallel with low energy consumption, which is an advantage of biological neural networks over traditional systems.
