Elon Musk to Implant a Wireless Chip in the Human Brain in 6 Months

Elon Musk said, on Wednesday, that human trials using a wireless device developed by his company, Neuralink, which specializes in making brain chips, are expected to begin within 6 months, adding that one of the first targeted applications is to restore sight.

The Company is developing brain chip interfaces that it says could give disabled patients the ability to move and communicate again.

Neuralink has conducted its experiments on animals in the past few years and is seeking approval from US regulators to begin human trials.

Musk said the first two targeted applications in human trials using the Neuralink tool would be restoring vision and allowing movement of muscles in people with disabilities.

"Even if a person has never seen, such as being born blind, we believe we can still restore sight for him", he added.

In Neuralink's last public presentation more than a year ago, the company demonstrated an experiment on a monkey that succeeded in playing a computer game by thinking on its own with the help of a brain chip.
