Three Patients With Neuralink Implants, 10 Bps and Study for Robotic Arm Control

Neuralink has been implanted in three patients, communication speed is nearing 10 bits per second and there is new study to integrate Neuralink to control robotic arms.

@ModdedQuad holds the BPS world record of 9.5 bits per second (bps). The challenge now: can this approach scale to 10 bps and beyond for our participants?

We’re excited to announce the approval and launch of a new feasibility trial to extend BCI control using the N1 Implant to an investigational assistive robotic arm.

This is an important first step towards restoring not only digital freedom, but also physical freedom. More info…

The Blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see.

Provided the visual cortex is intact, it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time.

To set expectations correctly, the vision… https://t.co/MYLHNcPrw6 pic.twitter.com/RAenDpd3fx
