fruit-fly

A curated list of fruit fly connectome projects: MaleCNS, FlyWire, brain simulations, embodied models, games, and research tools.

A fruit fly connectome as a drone pilot. Camera -> fly eyes -> spiking brain -> descending neurons -> drone. Live 3D demo in your browser.

NeuroCraft Fly by Evan Sinclair Smith: an interactive fruit-fly connectome model in Minecraft. Public project home and release roadmap.

Five fruit flies pinned to electric pins. A sixth fly, wired into a reward-punishment loop, decides which two get current, gets dopamine when one maxes out, and burns when the others go cold. Six copies of the MaleCNS connectome, 166,700 neurons each, bit-identical until something is done to them. [Look at the bottom of the README]

A fruit fly in a tiny tank helmet plays Claude of Tanks. Live spiking neurons, a miniature 3D cockpit, and autonomous battles with 171 vehicles and 30 maps. Built with Three.js and TypeScript. Play in your browser.

Kick-the-buddy game where the buddy is a live 166,700-neuron fruit fly connectome

166,700 fruit fly neurons trying to center a div using the MaleCNS connectome.

A real fruit fly nervous system (MaleCNS connectome, 165k neurons) plays rock-paper-scissors chess with zero training, deciding by its own approach vs escape circuits.

🪰⚖️ A real fruit fly connectome sits as juror and rules on X posts. 165,122 neurons, 25,563,197 synaptic connections, zero reading comprehension. Also: proof that the descending-neuron readout every viral fly-brain demo uses carries no information at all.
