Rat Neuron Cells Control New Robot

from the go-go-rat-power dept

Some researchers have built a robot that is controlled by rat neurons. It's not very graceful or useful at this point, but it's a melding of robotics and biology that could lead to many other uses. They say that what's learned from experiments like this could lead to self-healing computers that learn, and solutions to other computing problems where binary computing doesn't do the trick.
