Blind people could regain sight with Neuralink's Blindsight implant, says Elon Musk

"In the next 6-12 months, we'll be doing our first implants for vision, where even if somebody is completely blind, we can write directly to the visual cortex," Musk said.

A new brain implant designed to restore vision to people who are blind could enter its first phase of human implantation within the next year, according to Elon Musk.

The technology aims to restore vision by sending signals directly to the brain, bypassing the eyes Elon Musk says Neuralink plans to begin Blindsight vision implants within 6–12 months.
