LEGO working with worm brain

in #blog9 years ago

Programmers have described this neuron connection of a bristle to a LEGO with wheels this week. As a result of the experiment, the toy began to 'think' as if it had hair-it shows that we can load our brain on a computer and thus be immortal in the digital environment.

At the present time, studies on artificial intelligence led to various discussions on ethics, and the project named OpenWorm was developed at the end of the work to map the neuron connections (connectome). Within the scope of the project, 302 neuronal connections of worms composed of nervous system simple cell groups were mapped and simulated in a program. No instructions were identified in the robotic that mimics the electric web in the worm's brain. As a result of a study adapted to a Legobot, the nasal neurons of the bristle were placed on the robot with a sonar sensor. Lucy Black, who is part of the team, said that the robot moved forward and backward when the front and rear sensors of the robot were touched by the adaptive motor neurons, that the food sensor was moving the robot forward, and that the nose sensor stopped.

The aim of this study to support the creation of a simulation really can not be distinguished technologically advanced civilization. The founder of the project, Timothy Busbice has released the video of his work.
