Robots that can sense and respond to the world like humans may soon be a reality as scientists have created an artificial neuron capable of mimicking different parts of the brain. Subscribe to our ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

UMass Amherst engineers have built an artificial neuron powered by bacterial protein nanowires that functions like a real one, but at extremely low voltage. This allows for seamless communication with ...

Built of low-powered protein nanowires, made from bacteria, these neurons open the door to vastly more efficient, bio-inspired computers. (Nanowerk News) A team of engineers at the University of ...

For decades, scientists have tried to build electronics that behave like the brain. The idea is called neuromorphic computing in which chips are designed to copy the way our brain’s neurons fire and ...
