Elon Musk while streaming live on Monday YouTube at WisConsin Neuralink will perform the first human implant aimed at restoring the individual’s vision with blind people by the end of 2025.
Musk asked the audience when he conceived “to loosen his blindness and bring it to the public.”
Musk said, “Neuralink used a work device that we called a blind seet in monkey.
Blind The FDA groundbreaking device designation, which was received in September last year, is an implant aimed at restoring the vision of blind individuals.
Blindsight transplantes a microfel electrode array into the visual cortex of a human brain. The array then activates neurons and then provides a visual image to the individual.
Musk said, “I want to have the first device implant for humans this year.”
He wanted to set the expectations properly and explained that the individual’s vision would be “low resolution like” atari graphics. “
Musk said, “This starts at a very low resist, but I think that overtime work will eventually make the implant the same vision as a superhuman.”
Greater trend
Last year, Musk I wrote it on x Even those who have lost their eyes and optic nerves that are not blinded and can see the visual cortex. He said he would be able to see the blind for the first time in his birth.
Visual cortex is part of the brain that receives and processes visual information from the retina.
“After all, it has potential [to] It is better than natural vision and you can see infrared, ultraviolet or radar wavelengths. [Star Trek’s character] Musk wrote Geordi La forge. “
Neuralink submitted an application form In early March, with the US Patent Rights and Trademark Office (USPTO), the term “telepathy”, “square” and “telecinees” are trademarks.
Applications are related to blinds Neuralink’s first product,,, TelepathicA brain-computer interface that users can control the device with their own thoughts. tumultThe term Musk was used interchangeably with telepathy related to controlling the device using the mind.
