CULTURED RAT BRAIN. "The functional networks of cultured neurons exhibit complex network properties similar to those found in vivo. Starting from random seeding, cultures undergo significant reorganization during the initial period in vitro, yet despite providing an ideal platform for observing developmental changes in neuronal connectivity, little is known about how a complex functional network evolves from isolated neurons. In the present study, evolution of functional connectivity was estimated from correlations of spontaneous activity." https://lnkd.in/ef8-NCB View in LinkedIn

RAT BRAIN CULTURES. "Connecting the cells to electrodes that transmit signals from ultrasonic sensors in the robot has shown how the culture begins to act like the brain of a living organism, learning how to take in information, make decisions and interact with its environment." https://lnkd.in/d7uaGCD View in LinkedIn

CULTURED CELL-ROBOT INTERFACE "Since 2007, the researcher — who once implanted an electronic chip in his arm so he could receive neural signals from a similar chip implanted in his wife — has been using cultures of rat brain cells to control a small, wheeled robot." https://lnkd.in/dD7SVdC View in LinkedIn

IT SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE, BUT. "Instead of having to buy a premanufactured object we would just download the design and with the help claytronics it would form into different things. Claytronical objects will be able to form complex structures and perform elaborate tasks that may seem impossible with today’s technologies." https://lnkd.in/dBvyTjg View in LinkedIn

UNIMAGINABLE OPTIONS. "The driving force behind programmable matter is the actual hardware that is manipulating itself into whatever form is desired." http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claytronics View in LinkedIn

CLAYTRONICS, programmable matter, shape-shifting materials, telepario, and related developments enhance the possibilities of a virtual existence beyond an ether of dissociated electronic information, but rather in some physical manifestation. Immerse yourself in the possibilities. View in LinkedIn

CALLING ET. "Prof. Warwick's own research, which led to him receiving a neural implant linking his nervous system bi-directionally with the internet. With this implant in place, neural signals were transmitted to various technological devices to directly control them, in some cases via the internet, and feedback to the brain was obtained from such stimuli as the fingertips of a robot hand, ultrasonic (extra-) sensory input and neural signals directly from another human's nervous system." https://lnkd.in/epG78N6 View in LinkedIn

"A HYBRID SYSTEM incorporating closed-loop control of a mobile robot by a dissociated culture of neurons has been created. The system is flexible and allows for closed-loop operation, either with hardware robot or its software simulation." https://lnkd.in/eMAs5uD View in LinkedIn
