Interaction and Intelligence in Living Neuronal Networks Connected to Moving Robot

Abstract

The temporal patterns of spontaneous action potentials are analyzed, using the multi-site recording system for extracellular potentials of neurons and the living neuronal networks cultured on a 2-dimensional electrode arrays. We carried out the system integration for Khepera II robot and living neuronal network. We call the system as "biomodeling system". Our goal is reconstruction of the neuronal network, which can process "thinking" in the dissociated culture system.
