Neuralink trains paralyzed patient to control robot with power of thought

Neuralink teaches paralyzed patient to control robot with power of thought

Elon Musk's Neuralink company has presented one of the most striking demonstrations of its developments. It showed that paralyzed patients can control robotic arms using only the power of thought. Ixbt.com reports on this.

At the core of Neuralink technology lies an implantable chip that reads neural signals in the brain and translates them into commands for external devices. It is sufficient for the user to simply think about a movement, and the system executes the action instantly without voice, gestures, or controllers.

This demonstration marked a significant milestone for the company. While this technology was previously viewed as a promising concept, Neuralink is now showing real results.

Such interfaces bring closer the time when people with severe injuries can regain their mobility.

Neuralink is an American neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk in 2016. Its primary goal is to create brain-computer interfaces that establish direct communication between the human brain and electronic devices.

Initially, the chips allowed for controlling a computer with the power of thought. Individuals with such a device can move cursors, play video games, and write messages.

Additionally, the "Neuralink Blindsight" chip, designed to restore vision to the blind, is also under development.
