Elon Musk’s Neuralink is developing vision implants to restore sight for those with blindness caused by retinal or optic nerve damage. These brain-computer interfaces bypass damaged visual pathways by implanting electrode arrays directly into the visual cortex, stimulating neurons to create artificial vision. The technology aims to translate digital images into neural signals, enabling users to perceive shapes, colors, and potentially complex scenes. Beyond restoration, Neuralink’s vision implan

The patient, identified only as Paul, suffers from motor neuron disease. Hours after surgery, he could operate a computer using pure thought. Neuralink engineers say he’s now testing everyday tasks and even playing his favorite strategy games. Founded in 2016, Neuralink is developing what Musk calls a “high-bandwidth brain-computer link” that could allow people with paralysis to regain control—and eventually enable full digital-human integration. | Wienerdog Wifi
