Description

At Neuralink's "Show and Tell" event, DJ Seo walks the audience through a demonstration of the R1 robot conducting surgical insertion of the neural threads. It should take the robot about 15 minutes to insert 64 threads for their first product. N1 and R1 aims to "help people with paralysis, from complete spinal cord injury, to regain their digital freedom by enabling them to use their devices as good as, if not better than they could before their injury". They hope to launch their first human clinical trial within the next 6 months.
