A digitized fly brain was connected to a robot

Today, 09:15

An engineer connected the digitized brain of a fruit fly (Drosophila) that died a few years ago to a walking robot. The neural activity of the brain is converted into commands that set the legs in motion.

The dead fly's brain was connected to a robot, and now, in a new body, it can once again move around our world.

The activity of the Drosophila neural model is converted into control commands that set the robot in motion. As a result, the cyberfly "lives" again.

The author made it so that this fly brain can be connected and adapted to virtually any device (even a smart vacuum cleaner).
