Experimental Analysis of Plasmodium’s Computation Properties for Biological Amorphous Robotics.

The Plasmodium of Physarym polycephalum has been studied in the biological and engineering community as a potential biological substrate which is capable of exhibiting properties concerning parallel and concurrent computation .several experiments have shown its capability to optimize graphs and combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we propose the utility of this plasmodium computing, in minimum resistance surface like water, basic tree structures and manipulation of light objects. We further speculate that the results of these experiments can help create biological amorphous robots.
