Elon Musk’s Neuralink Successfully Implants Wireless Chip in Human Brain
Elon Musk, the American billionaire behind companies like SpaceX and Tesla, announced a major breakthrough for his company Neuralink on his own social network X. Neuralink has successfully implanted a wireless chip into the human brain for the first time.
The chip is designed to serve as a link between the human brain and a computer. It is a receiver capsule that is attached behind the ear, similar to a hearing aid, and contains filamentous electrodes that go into the brain. The device is capable of transmitting brain signals via Bluetooth, with over a thousand electrodes implanted in the brain.
Developers believe that the chip will be instrumental in the fight against both physical problems and mental disorders. Initial results from the device have shown promising detection of nerve impulses.
According to Musk, the first person to receive an implant from Neuralink is recovering well. This marks a significant milestone for the company, which began recruiting volunteers to test the implantation of implants in September of last year. The focus at the initial stage was on evaluating the safety of the chip and the surgical robot used for implantation.
The project was launched in 2016, following previous studies that were conducted only on animals. This latest development represents a significant step forward for Neuralink and the integration of technology with the human brain.
The potential applications for this type of technology are vast and could have far-reaching implications for the treatment of a wide range of medical conditions.
The successful implantation of the wireless chip is seen as a significant achievement not only for Neuralink, but for the field of neurotechnology as a whole. The development opens the door to new possibilities for treating and understanding the human brain.
