Connectome Fly Lab

A custom 2D environment driven by the public FlyWire FAFB v783 connectome. No keyboard control. Food, light and collision signals stimulate real connectome groups; network activity drives locomotion.

Scientific caveat
The wiring and synaptic weights come from the real public connectome. The LIF dynamics and game-world sensor/motor interface are an experimental model. Food direction and attack direction are supplied by the 2D environment, while locomotion is gated by propagated network activity. “Attack” means a modeled mechanosensory/danger stimulus; it does not establish that the simulation experiences pain or consciousness.

Data source: public FlyWire-derived connectome.bin.gz from the open-source FlyBrain project. The app fetches only that data file; this page contains its own renderer, world logic and simulation worker.
