Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely:  report for the first time on finding shortest path solutions for the travelling salesman problem (TSP) using hybrid "in materio" computation: a technique that uses search algorithms to configure materials for computation. A single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) / polymer composite material de- posited on a micro-electrode array is configured using static voltages so that volt- age output readings determine the path order in which to visit cities in a TSP. Our initial results suggest that the hybrid computation with the SWCNT material is able to solve small instances of the TSP as efficiently as a comparable evolution- ary search algorithm performing the same computation in software. Interestingly the results indicate that the hybrid system's search performance on TSPs scales linearly rather than exponentially on these smaller instances. This exploratory work represents the first step towards building SWCNT-based electrode arrays in parallel so that they can solve much larger problems.
