A technical deep dive into integrating the adult fly connectome, connectome-constrained brain models, and neuromechanical body simulations to build the first virtual embodied fly.
We took the FlyWire connectome of the fruit fly brain, applied a simple neuron model and used it to control a MuJoCo physics-simulated body, closing the loop from neural activation to action.
Eon Systems demonstrates what we believe is the world's first embodiment of a whole-brain emulation that produces multiple behaviors.
