dendrite Electrolytic ensemble:
In this particular configuration, a PC sends and receives 3D data to a PIC 16f877 microcontroller, which transforms it in to lengths of electrical pulses, which are sent to the anodes in the electrolytic bath. Currents are picked up at the cathodes and converted again to digital form by the microcontroller. In this case the initial form of the dendrites is arbitrary and not ‘learned’.
