This project develops Biological Animal Robots (BABots) using genetically modified nematodes to perform enhanced behaviors, such as detecting and attacking pathogens in agriculture. The approach combines synthetic biology and swarm intelligence, allowing for environmentally friendly and self-sustaining solutions in pes…
We aim to establish a fundamentally new technology of Biological Animal roBots (BABots), consisting of small animals with a genetically modified nervous system, enabling the execution of a desired repertoire of behaviors beyond their natural abilities.
We will implement the first BABot system in C. elegans, a 1 mm long nematode worm.
These worms will be programmed to act as a collective, and to detect, locate and attack invading pathogens in an agricultural setting.
Being 100% biological, BABots…
