Scientists at Cornell University have developed a “biohybrid” robot that moves in response to signals from the nervous system of fungi. These robots incorporate mycelium, the root system of fungi, which senses and communicates through electrical signals. Researchers grew mycelium directly into the robot's electronics, allowing it to drive the machine by processing these natural signals. The team built two versions: one with wheels and another spider-shaped with soft legs. Both versions respond t
