The Journey
- Blindsight device: This is a device, which aims to enable the blind to see. For this, Neuralink has received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA. According to Musk.
- The Blind will see : Through this device, even those who have lost both their eyes and optic nerve will be able to see, even those who are blind from birth will be able to see but the visual cortex is necessary.
- The Vision : According to Musk, Blindsight device will start showing Atari graphics type vision to blinds. Musk claims that it will enable people to see like the blind hero Geordi La Forge of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
- The Future Possibility: With time, developing technology will develop Blindsight further, the best thing is that the possibility of great inventions by Musk for other types of disability has also increased.
A just invention
Need is the mother of invention; for example, Stephan Farfle invented a wheelchair for his own need, Miller Reese Hutchinson invented hearing aids for his deaf friend Lyman Gould's need. Musk is not related to any blind person, but he invented such a technology. It is possible that Musk has some selfish motive in this, but whatever it is, his invention is no less than a boon for the blind.
