Proteinoids-Polyaniline Interaction with Stimulated Neurons on Living and Plastic Surfaces.

The integration of proteinoid-polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers with neuromorphic architectures shows potential for developing computer systems that are adaptable, energy-efficient, and have the capacity of tolerating faults. This work examines the capacity of proteinoid-PANI nanofibers to imitate different spiking patterns in stimulated Izhikevich neurons. The proteinoid-PANI nanofibers exhibit diverse spiking behaviors on different substrates, showcasing a broad range of control and programmability, as confirmed by experimental characterization and computational modeling.

Kombucha-Proteinoid Crystal Bioelectric Circuits.

We propose "kombucha-proteinoid crystal bioelectric circuits" as a sustainable bio-computing platform. These circuits are hybrid biological-inorganic devices that utilize crystal growth dynamics as the physical substrate to convert information. Microfluidic prototypes couple custom-synthesized thermal proteinoids within kombucha cellulose matrices and metastable calcium carbonate solutions.

Virtual Reality With Eye Tracking for Pediatric Ophthalmology: A Systematic Review.

Virtual reality presents an efficient and engaging approach to ophthalmological diagnosis and treatment in children. This systematic review investigates the current state of eye tracking technology integrated into virtual reality for the spectrum of pediatric ophthalmology. The search encompassed the MEDLINE database via PubMed, without imposing any time restrictions.

Electroactive composite biofilms integrating Kombucha, Chlorella and synthetic proteinoid Proto-Brains.

In this study, we present electroactive biofilms made from a combination of Kombucha zoogleal mats and thermal proteinoids. These biofilms have potential applications in unconventional computing and robotic skin. Proteinoids are synthesized by thermally polymerizing amino acids, resulting in the formation of synthetic protocells that display electrical signalling similar to neurons.

Functionalizing the Electrical Properties of Kombucha Zoogleal Mats for Biosensing Applications.

Kombucha is a type of tea that is fermented using yeast and bacteria. During this process, a film made of cellulose is produced. This film has unique properties such as biodegradability, flexibility, shape conformability, and ability to self-grow as well as be produced across customized scales.
