Blindsight is one of the ambitious projects by Neuralink, the neurotechnology company co-founded by Elon Musk

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, neuroscience

The concept behind Blindsight involves leveraging brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) to restore or even enhance sensory perception in individuals who have lost their sight. The goal is to bypass damaged or non-functional parts of the visual system by directly interfacing with the brain’s visual cortex, allowing users to see using digital inputs processed by the Neuralink implant.

The idea is that the implant could take visual information from cameras or other sensors and transmit it directly to the brain, potentially allowing users to perceive images or their surroundings without relying on their natural eyes.
