Cortical Labs uses a live-cell biological computer to control a robot dog's movement
New Scientist Robots
Cortical Labs' biological computer CL1, built from living cells, was trained in a simulated 2D environment and then used to control the movement of a real robot dog. A paper from the company that has not yet been peer-reviewed shows that the neural network improved over time when continuously fed the same data, and Ferrante Neri of the Education University of Hong Kong considers this preliminary evidence of learning from limited experience. Cortical Labs says the biological computer may consume less energy than digital approaches, and its cells come from blood stem cells donated with donor consent.
