    Online Chat with Living Neuronal Cultures

Developer(s):



Description:


    We demonstrate a combination of neuroscience experiment and visual interaction over the internet. Activity of cultured neurons is obtained by measurement instrument, transmitted to WebGL visualization in real-time, and broadcasted online as light and sound effects. The system reveals the beauty of the dynamics within a living neural network and enables the audience to interact with the culture by sending stimulation commands via the chat interface.
