Australian researchers teach brain cells to play ‘Doom’

MELBOURNE, Australia — Australian researchers have trained lab-grown brain cells on a silicon computer chip to play the ’90s shooter game “Doom” and say they are just scratching the surface of what ...
Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...
Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) sound like science fiction to most people. But this technology is getting real, quickly.
In 2022, Cortical Labs demonstrated a culture of lab-grown human brain cells playing Pong. Now the company claims it has trained its CL-1 chip, composed of 200,000 neurons, to play Doom. Data from the ...
Researchers at Princeton University have developed a living computing device that combines real biological brain cells with ...
The human brain is remarkably complex, with trillions of connections that control how you move, think and feel.
Artificial neural networks built with biological cells promises massive energy savings.
It's been a long time since Alice Charton got a good look at a human face. There are plenty of people moving through her world, of course—her husband, her friends, her doctors, her neighbors—but ...
For decades, neuroscientists focused almost exclusively on only half of the cells in the brain. Neurons were the main players, they thought, and everything else was made up of uninteresting support ...
Treating brain diseases is extraordinarily challenging, because drugs often work poorly and implants require risky surgery that can jeopardize critical brain functions. A group at MIT has sought a ...
Explore how brain computer interface technology and advanced brain-computer interfaces are transforming digital interaction, potentially replacing traditional keyboards and screens with thought-driven ...
