According to British media reports, paralyzed patients may one day be able to move freely, except that they need a brain chip and a prosthesis controlled by it.
British scientists are currently developing a chip that is only one centimeter wide. When a human wants to make a certain action, the electrodes on the chip will quickly receive nerve impulse signals, analyze the brain nerve motion through data processing technology, and decipher people's ideas. The final wireless transmitter will pass the information out of the brain and send it to the prosthesis that matches the chip.
Scientists have explained that patients who suffer from bone marrow damage are only unable to move their limbs, but their brains are no problem. "They know what they want to see and what they want to do, but the damaged spinal tissue destroys the spread of brain signals. If we can collect these signals and decipher them, then the patient only needs another prosthetic to move. â€
Similar chip technology has been experimented with monkeys, but at that time wired transmission was used to drill a hole in the monkey's skull. Obviously this technique is not suitable for humans and is neither aesthetically pleasing nor risky to infect. Scientists believe that this wireless human brain chip can be successfully developed within five years. At that time, patients who are paralyzed due to damaged spinal cord tissue are expected to resume normal exercise.
