Neuralink

According to Musk, the device could allow individuals without functioning eyes or optic nerves to see again, with future potential to enhance vision by detecting wavelengths like infrared and ultraviolet.

Despite a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed, Alex has swiftly mastered controlling a computer cursor and navigating and engaging in the fast-paced world of video gaming.

Neuralink aims to enhance the implant's control accuracy to match that of able-bodied users fully, including expanding its capabilities to allow text input and the control of robotic devices such as prosthetic arms and motorized wheelchairs.

Blindsight is currently undergoing testing in monkeys, promising a future where its resolution, initially similar to early Nintendo graphics, could surpass that of natural human vision.

Neuralink's pioneering approach involves surgically implanting a chip into a region of the brain that controls the intention to move, enabling direct communication between the brain and external devices.

The implant, named Telepathy, is designed to establish a seamless connection between the human brain and external devices, allowing individuals to control computers or smartphones with mere thoughts.

The first volunteers for the trials will be patients suffering from limb mobility issues. Neuralink obtained the necessary regulatory approval from authorities in the United States last month to conduct brain implant surgeries.
