Hi Guys, RoboPhil from Robot Philosophy, where we explore the cutting edge of robotics and automation.
And to today we are looking in to a fascinating and slightly unnerving development, scientists in China have created a robot with a brain grown from human stem cells. We’ve officially entered the age where robots might start outsmarting us.
This brain-on-chip technology allows the robot to perform tasks like moving its limbs, avoiding obstacles, and grasping objects, all while demonstrating basic human intelligence. Developed by a team from Tianjin University and the Southern University of Science and Technology, the brain is connected to the robot via a brain-computer interface, enabling communication with the outside world.
Ming Dong, an executive director at the Haihe Laboratory, explains, “The brain-computer interface on a chip uses an in vitro cultured ‘brain’ coupled with an electrode chip to interact with the outside world.” It’s essentially a very smart babysitting gig.
To keep these brain organoids functional, they need conditions similar to a human brain—fluid, nutrients, temperature control, and protection. Researchers believe this technology will revolutionize hybrid intelligence, merging biological and artificial systems.
This breakthrough follows another recent advancement where Japanese scientists grafted living human skin onto a humanoid robot’s face, allowing it to smile and exhibit human-like emotions.
As human stem cells form brain organoids, the fusion of biology and technology is pushing the boundaries of what robots can achieve.
