Nyob rau 2nd Lub Yim Hli 2024, Elon Musk tshaj tawm tias nws lub tuam txhab Neuralink tau cog rau lub hlwb-lub computer interface (BCI) ntaus ntawv rau tus neeg koom thib ob. Nws hais tias cov txheej txheem tau mus zoo, cov cuab yeej ua haujlwm tau zoo thiab vam tias yuav ua cov txheej txheem kev cog qoob loo BCI rau lwm yim tus neeg koom nrog rau xyoo kawg nyob ntawm kev pom zoo los ntawm kev tswj hwm.
Brain-computer interface (BCI) txiav txim siab xav txav cov cim ntawm lub hlwb ua haujlwm los tswj cov khoom siv sab nraud xws li khoos phis tawj.
Nyob rau 28th Lub Ib Hlis 2024, Noland Arbaugh tau los ua thawj tus neeg koom tes tau txais Neuralink's N1 cog. Cov txheej txheem tau ua tiav. Nws tau qhia lub peev xwm los hais kom lwm tus ntaus ntawv tsis ntev los no. Qhov kev vam meej hauv Neuralink's wireless BCI interface yog suav tias yog ib kauj ruam tseem ceeb ntawm kev txhim kho lub neej zoo (QoL) rau cov neeg uas muaj quadriplegia vim yog Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) lossis txha caj qaum raug mob (SCI).
Ptawg Robotically IMcog Brain-Computer InterfaceE (PRIME) Txoj Kev Kawm, feem ntau hu ua "Neuralink Clinical Trial" yog thawj zaug hauv tib neeg txoj kev tshawb fawb thaum ntxov los ntsuam xyuas qhov kev nyab xeeb thawj zaug thiab kev ua haujlwm ntawm cov cuab yeej siv. Neuralink N1 Implant thiab R1 Robot ntaus ntawv tsim nyob rau hauv cov neeg koom nrog mob hnyav quadriplegia (los yog tetraplegia lossis tuag tes tuag taw nrog rau tag nrho plaub ceg ceg thiab lub cev) vim kev raug mob qaum qaum lossis amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
N1 Implant (los yog Neuralink N1 Implant, los yog N1, los yog Telepathy, los yog Txuas) yog hom implantable hlwb-computer interface. Nws yog pob txha taub hau-mounted, wireless, rechargeable implant txuas nrog electrode threads uas yog cog rau hauv lub hlwb los ntawm R1 Robot.
R1 Neeg Hlau (los yog R1, los yog Neuralink R1 Neeg Hlau) yog ib tug neeg hlau electrode xov inserter uas cog N1 Implant.
Peb lub hauv paus -N1 Implant (BCI implant), R1 Robot (tus neeg hlau phais), thiab N1 Tus Neeg Siv App (BCI software) - pab kom cov neeg tuag tes tuag taw los tswj cov khoom siv sab nraud.
Thaum txoj kev tshawb no, R1 Neeg Hlau yog siv los phais qhov chaw N1 Implant nyob rau hauv ib cheeb tsam ntawm lub hlwb uas tswj kev txav mus los. Cov neeg koom nrog raug nug kom siv N1 Implant thiab N1 Tus Neeg Siv App los tswj lub khoos phis tawj thiab muab cov lus qhia txog lub kaw lus.
