| Monkey Brain Connected with Computer in China |
In a recent ground-breaking experiment, China successfully linked a monkey's brain to a computer, enabling the animal to guide a robotic arm using brain impulses. This accomplishment represents a substantial advance for brain-machine interface technology.
Electrodes were inserted into the monkey's brain during the experiment to record the electrical impulses produced by the neurons. The robotic arm could then understand and respond to these signals thanks to their translation into computer code.
Despite the amazing accomplishment, researchers admit that much more work needs to be done before a similar device can be successfully used on people. Because the human brain is significantly more complicated than a monkey's, technology must be much more sophisticated in order to accommodate the intricacy of human brain signals.
But this study opens up new directions for studying brain-machine interface technologies. If completed, this technology could completely alter the way people with disabilities live their lives by allowing them to carry out difficult jobs and enhance their quality of life.
