25,000 neurons growing on a multi-electrode array form a living “brain,” which is hooked up to a flight simulator on a desktop computer. Information on the aircraft’s movements is processed by stimulating neurons with electrodes. The neurons then fire in patterns that control the aircraft’s flight path.

    Sorry, didn’t mean to sound whiny.

    I think since this time there has been announcement of growing tiny brains with layers, from human stem cells.

    I don’t know if they’ve been connected to X-plane flight sim.
