Ma ka 2nd ʻAukake 2024, ua hoʻolaha ʻo Elon Musk i kāna ʻoihana Neuralink ua hoʻokomo ʻo Brain-computer interface (BCI) i kahi mea komo ʻelua. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua holo maikaʻi ke kaʻina hana, ua hana maikaʻi ka hāmeʻa a manaʻolana e hana i nā kaʻina hana implantation device BCI ma luna o ʻewalu mau mea komo i ka hopena o ka makahiki ma muli o ka ʻae ʻana o ke kānāwai.
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻo Brain-computer interface (BCI) i nā hōʻailona neʻe i manaʻo ʻia mai ka hana o ka lolo e hoʻomalu i nā mea waho e like me nā kamepiula.
Ma ka 28th Ianuali 2024, ua lilo ʻo Noland Arbaugh i mea komo mua i loaʻa iā Neuralink's N1 implant. Ua holomua ke kaʻina hana. Ua hōʻike ʻo ia i ka hiki ke kauoha i kahi hāmeʻa waho i kēia manawa. Ua manaʻo ʻia kēia holomua ʻana i ka interface BCI uea ʻole o Neuralink i mea koʻikoʻi i ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka maikaʻi o ke ola (QoL) no ka poʻe me quadriplegia ma muli o ka Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) a i ʻole. ʻeha ʻōiwi (SCI).
Pʻoki ʻia Robotically IMkanu ʻia ʻo Brain-Computer InterfaceE (PRIME) Haʻawina, i kapa pinepine ʻia ʻo "Neuralink Clinical Trial" kahi noiʻi hiki mua i loko o ke kanaka e nānā i ka palekana mua o ka lāʻau lapaʻau a me ka hana o ka mīkini. Neuralink N1 Hoʻokomo a R1 mea lopako nā hoʻolālā i nā poʻe i komo me ka quadriplegia koʻikoʻi (a i ʻole tetraplegia a i ʻole ka maʻi lolo e pili ana i nā lālā ʻehā a me ka ʻūhā) ma muli o ka ʻeha o ke kuamoʻo a i ʻole amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
ʻO ka N1 Implant (a i ʻole Neuralink N1 Implant, a i ʻole N1, a i ʻole Telepathy, a i ʻole Link) kahi ʻano o ka lolo-kamepiula implantable. Hoʻopili ʻia i ka iwi poʻo, uea, rechargeable implant i pili i nā kaula electrode i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka lolo e ka R1 Robot.
ʻO ka R1 Robot (a i ʻole R1, a i ʻole Neuralink R1 Robot) he robotic electrode thread inserter e hoʻokomo i ka N1 Implant.
ʻO nā ʻāpana ʻekolu -N1 Implant (he BCI implant), ka R1 Robot (he lopako ʻokiʻoki), a me ka N1 User App (BCI software) - hiki i nā poʻe me ka lolo ke hoʻomalu i nā mea o waho.
I ka wā o ke aʻo ʻana, hoʻohana ʻia ka R1 Robot e kau i ka N1 Implant ma kahi ʻāpana o ka lolo e hoʻomalu i ka manaʻo neʻe. Noi ʻia ka poʻe i komo e hoʻohana i ka N1 Implant a me N1 User App e hoʻokele i kahi kamepiula a hāʻawi i nā manaʻo e pili ana i ka ʻōnaehana.

 Study, commonly refered as “Neuralink Clinical Trial” is a first-in-human early feasibility study to assess the initial clinical safety and device functionality of the Neuralink N1 Implant and R1 Robot device designs in participants with severe quadriplegia (or tetraplegia or paralysis involving all four limbs and torso) due to spinal cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).){kind=link}
