This month, Musk said the next human tests would be using an “upgraded Neuralink device.” The company is also still developing the surgical robot, called R1, that’s used to implant the device.

As such, Neuralink uses a surgical robot – the R1 – to insert threads into the cortex near "neurons of interest." ...

The threads are so fine that they have to be implanted using a surgical robot. News of the CONVOY has come just a few days after Neuralink reported ... the N1 implant and R1 robotic implantation ...

The "early feasibility" open-label study will also test the safety and efficacy of Neuralink's R1 robot that is used to implant the thread-like electrodes used in the BCI into the brain.

Elon Musk co-founded Neuralink in 2016 to develop brain ... like electrodes are inserted by a surgeon guided by a robot—called the “R1 Robot”—into targeted areas of the brain to record ...

"The Miami Project and the University of Miami are renowned for their pioneering research in neural interfaces for the ...

The Precise Robotically Implanted Brain-Computer Interface (PRIME) study aims to evaluate the safety of Neuralink’s implant (N1) and surgical robot (R1), as well as assess the initial ...
