Part 2/12:
Neuralink, Musk’s neurotechnology company, announced a significant breakthrough: immediately after implantation, their device can provide real-time visualization of neural activity. A recent video demonstrates this capability, showing the neural activity of a participant waking up post-surgery. The visualization uses a spike raster plot—a method where each row corresponds to a neural channel, and each white pixel indicates a spike. Over 1,000 channels are monitored, showcasing Neuralink’s capacity to capture detailed brain activity.
