Create AI programs. Construct bionic systems. Conduct cognitive science experiments. _ Bionic Visual Programming (BVP) Inspired by the neurological structure of the human brain, NEURO is designed specifically for creating AI-based programs. It features many neuro-inspired modules like Sense, Fear, Knowledge, Imagination, Reward, etc. Plus programming in NEURO is entirely codeless. _ ML Packages With more than 100 Machine Learning packages and modular presets to choose from, you can easily create AI-based programs from simple object recognition to a reward-driven self-aware system. _ Sensors and Behaviors The six sensors resemble the human sensory system - sight, sound, touch, motion, body, and info. The behaviors include a wide way of output such as light, vibration, sound, images, and even smart home controls. _ Virtual Nuclei Nuclei are units for building circuitry based on the reductionist mechanism of neurological pathways, like the reward loop, motivations, fight or flight system, and even emotions. Use them to create a conscious system, enhance your program, or conduct cognitive experimentations. _ Nervous System Hold and drag to synapse a nerve fiber between two modules. There are a handful of neural nodes that can alter neural signals on the way. _ Cyberclean UI NEURO focuses on data and logic, yet still outputs a solid and futuristic UI that maximizes interactivity. Tap on any of the modules to zoom in for configurations. Tap on the top bar to reveal their support documents. _ Biomark and Biocode Your program can be compressed into a single scannable Biocode for instant sharing. You can. also permanently sign your work with Biomark, which can not be altered even after sharing. More features: _6 templates included _Plastic nerve, Hyponerve, Hypernerve _Firing rate control for optimization _Envelope and Nap _UI modeling with Projector _Rename your program _Biomark and Biocode _Autosave * Neural Engine and ML functions may not support on all devices and all OS versions: recommend iOS 14.0 or later, iPhone 7 or later, all Apple supported iPad models, Apple Watch Series 2 or later
