Fly VNC Walking Simulation

Sadiq Khan (@sadiqkhzn)

Drives a NeuroMechFly body in MuJoCo from the male ventral nerve cord alone: 24,115 neurons and 1.77M edges pulled from male-cns:v1.0 over neuPrint, split by neurotransmitter into 1,026,234 excitatory and 693,369 inhibitory edges. Only a thin command interface is learned; the wiring is never touched. The validation table reports what fails: a moonwalker drive raises the motor pool 349-fold, but DNp09 suppresses walking by only 16 percent and tripod anti-phase never appears, which the author puts down to the missing proprioceptive loop.
