INTRODUCTION

 Neuralink is a neurotechnology company which is enhancing by the


Brain Machine Interfaces(BMI), founded by the ELON MUSK,
launched in the year 2016 at San Francisco

 Neuralink aim initially was to understand and treat brain disorders

 It is building a technology that could be embedded in a person's


brain, where it could both record brain activity and potentially
stimulate it.
BRAIN MACHINE INTERFACE(BMI)

• A brain–machine interface (BMI) is a device that


translates neuronal information into commands
capable of controlling external software or
hardware such as a computer or robotic arm.

• BMIs are often used as assisted living devices for


individuals with motor or sensory impairments.
NEURALINK

• Neuralink is a brain chip, which is specifically called as


Brain Machine Interface(BMI)
• The chip contains long and thin wires with electrodes and
it also fitted correctly to removing the piece of skull. The
threads will detects neural signals and ultimately these
transmitted by the link.
• It is used to communicate with machines and even control
them. It helps to study and cure various medical problems N1CHIP
WORKING OF NEURALINK

Neuralink will work in five major steps-

• Creation of threads
• Stitching of threads into the tissues
• Reading the signals and cleaning them
• Transmission of signals to amplifier Implanted N1 Chip

• Amplification of signals and transmission to the machine.


APPLICATIONS
For Visual Prosthesis: One of the engineers at Neuralink who works in the visual neuroscience
department said that this project has the potential to provide a visual prosthesis for people who have
retinal injury or blindness through eye injury.

For Telepathy: Musk called this communication a 'non-linguistic consent consensual conceptual
telepathy.

An Oscilloscope For Brain: Oscilloscopes provide visual information of printed circuit boards(PCBs).
Similarly, the Neuralink device can shed light on many functions of the brain.

Nostalgia On Demand: Memories fade. They get replaced, edited through narratives. As years pile up,
the original version is no longer there. Though this sounds like straight out of the movie Memento, it is
unfortunately true.
CONCLUSION

The Neuralink implant and its potential for neuroamplification and treatment modalities bring a hopeful
advancements in enhancing the people lives with spinal cord injuries, neurodegenerative disorders, and
also neurobiological deficiencies.

It can be used to operate encephalopathy, creates a well aligned future
