Wow, thats something new:
The Unconventional Computing Laboratory at the University of the West of England has developed a "mushroom motherboard" that utilizes fungi's mycelium as a conductor and substitute for other electronic components. Researchers can utilize the presence or absence of a spike as the basis for zeroes or ones, similar to the binary language conventional computers use. Mushroom computers have enhanced fault tolerance due to their self-generation property and better reconfigurability as they grow and evolve. Although the concept is still in the feasibility stage, it demonstrates the potential for advanced mycelium computers and control devices in the future.
