Cornell University researchers develop biohybrid robots using mushroom mycelia, opening possibilities in medicine, transportation, and environmental conservation.
Cornell University researchers have developed "mushroom biohybrid robots" using electrical impulses from mushroom mycelia, opening up new possibilities for real-world applications in fields like medicine, transportation, and environmental conservation. The biohybrid robots, which incorporate living cells and synthetic materials, can move, sense, and respond to their environment using electrical signals similar to those in the human nervous system. This advancement in biohybrid robotics showcases the progress being made in integrating advanced technology with living organisms.
