Neuro-robotic systems can be used to study the ability to behave in a goal-oriented way in a natural situation. Here we applied this experimental paradigm for exploring the potential of populations of dissociated cultured neurons as model systems to investigate neural computation. Our results suggest that the induction of minimal morphological organization can improve the computational capabilities...
We report on an experiment in which a population of rat cortical neurons, cultured on a micro-electrode array, was connected bi-directionally to a mobile robot. Bi-directional communication between a neural population and an external device requires to translate time-varying signals into spatio-temporal patterns of neural activity, and back. Here, we describe the experimental setup and the computational...
In vitro cultured neurons form a bi-dimensional physical model of the brain. In spite of their simplified level of organization, they provide a useful framework to study information processing in the nervous system. NeuroBIT is an EU-funded project, aimed at developing algorithms and techniques that allow for establishing a bi-directional connection between cultured neurons and external devices (e...
