Neuralink develops brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that facilitate direct communication between the brain and external devices. Its main product, the N1 Implant, is a small, fully implantable device that allows users to control computers or mobile devices through their brain activity. The implant is powered by a wirelessly charged battery and uses custom electronics to process neural signals, which are then sent to the Neuralink Application that translates these signals into commands. What sets Neuralink apart from competitors is its use of a surgical robot that precisely inserts ultra-thin threads into the brain, minimizing damage during the procedure. The company's goal is to restore autonomy to individuals with mobility issues or neurological disorders, while also appealing to those interested in enhancing their cognitive abilities.
