Updates ABout Blindsight As Of 17th September:
Elon Musk announced via Twitter on 17th September that Neuralink’s Blindsight device has finally received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administrator, which is the major milestone of the landmark technology in its tread toward restoring vision for even completely blinded individuals with both eyes or the optic nerve missing.
Musk made the point that, while the initial resolution might look like the poor graphics of the early Atari systems, it is a foundation or device upon which future developments could allow resolution beyond human eyesight to encompass infrared and ultraviolet spectrums.
Musk added that he was “grateful to the FDA for allowing Neuralink to take this life-changing technology to the next level, which has the potential to restore vision to someone who has been blind since birth.” Neuralink now sits in a great position to ramp up human trials and further fine-tune the capabilities of the Blindsight device. This development strengthens hopes that, in the near future, those affected by blindness will regain or experience vision in ways once thought impossible.
Nuralink also shared that interested persons can join its Patient Registry or apply for openings on their career page as they continue their quest to restore sight to those who have lost it.
Lately Elon Musk’s company, Neuralink, showed off two incredible inventions on back in March 2024. These game-changers are going to make a big difference in people’s lives and shake up the way things are done in the future!
Talk about Telepathy, this cool thing from Neuralink. Instead of a clicker, you have a brain implant called the “Link.” With it, you can control things just by thinking about them. Imagine checking emails or playing games without using your hands. It’s really awesome!
Initially created for helping people move easier, Telepathy has various useful uses. It makes daily tasks easier and lets you do many things at once, like a superhero. This new idea could change how we communicate. Recent news says Neuralink has used Telepathy on a person, blending mind and tech.
Explore Blindsight, Neuralink’s latest technology, which focuses on enhancing vision, a significant obstacle. By transmitting images directly to the brain, this innovative approach bypasses eye-related issues. This remarkable scientific advancement paves the way for a plethora of new possibilities. Individuals who have experienced blindness from birth can now embark on a journey of exploration.
In a world where monkeys have better vision, they offer hope. It’s similar to viewing old video game graphics, not high definition, but enhancing human eyesight.
These cool inventions have some drawbacks. Surgery raises ethical questions. Your privacy and freedom are at stake. Altering human nature is risky. Strict government rules are crucial for regulating advancements.
Elon Musk is hopeful. Stay positive, but be cautious. To make Neuralink succeed, research well, communicate clearly, think ethically. Brain-computer interfaces are advancing tech and humanity amazingly.
