Business highlights

1

Neuralink's technology builds on decades of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BMI) research in academic labs, including several ongoing studies with human participants.

2

BMIs use electrodes attached to the neurons of the brain, which are implanted in the brain. These electrodes are connected to a recording device, which captures electrical activity from the neurons. Then this activity can be decoded into a readable pattern that is inputted into a computer or other electronic device. The information contained in these patterns can then be used to move a cursor or control the movements of an artificial limb, for example.

3

The company is solving issues regarding connecting electrodes threads, creation of a chip - The Link with a possibility to read neuron signals, hermetic packaging for The Link, neurosurgical robots for the implantation and neural decoding.
