Elon Musk has recently launched his new startup Neuralink. It is a chip that can be planted in your brain. With the help of this chip, our brain can be directly connected to the computer. This will open new avenues for progress in the medical sector. It will help people born blind to see and those who are not able to walk or use their hands.

Will Musk's brain be chipped?

The news is coming that Musk is going to get this chip installed in his brain. Responding to a tweet, this has been confirmed. In this tweet, Ashlee Vance wrote that Elon has just resolved to get a brain implant, to which Musk replied 'Yup'.

Company working on this technology

Musk's new company is working on technology to drop thousands of electrodes thinner than a hair into the outer surface of the human brain. Each electrode is a tiny wire attached to a battery-powered, remotely rechargeable, quarter-size chip package embedded in the spot where the Skull's circle is. This chip, which is being called N1, communicates wirelessly with the outside world.

Human trial will be done in 6 months

Neuralink's clinical human trial is expected to begin in six months. The first target application of this trial is to restore vision. That is, the company is developing a brain chip interface that enables disabled or patients to walk, move and communicate.
