How can Neurons move a Robot?


We tend to imagine that a Robots' brain is a computer system full of complex code, or a complex set of gears that work together to provide movement in a Robot.  However, in this case (Cultured Neurons move robot!!) there is no computer code generated by a human to move this small robot.  Interestingly, the small robot moves as a result of neurons adapting and communicating
with their environment. The communication between the neurons and the robot is relayed by 60 electrodes contained within a culture plate.
