How organic neuromorphic electronics can think and act

Science Daily  December 13, 2021 In living organisms, sensory and motor processes are distributed, locally merged, and capable of forming dynamic sensorimotor associations. An international team of researchers (the Netherlands, Germany, USA – Stanford University, UK, Saudi Arabia, Italy) has developed a simple and efficient organic neuromorphic circuit for local sensorimotor merging and processing on a robot that is placed in a maze. While the robot is exposed to external environmental stimuli, visuomotor associations are formed on the adaptable neuromorphic circuit. With this on-chip sensorimotor integration, the robot learns to follow a path to the exit of a maze, while […]
