They need chip designers, software people, product designers and robotics people. The team has 100 people now and eventually, they will have 10,000 people.

The sensors are like little microphones that "listen" for brain spikes. Brain spikes are action potentials in neurons that are the main means of communication in neurons.

The goal is to make it faster, safer, smaller with millions of brain sensors and provide to millions of patients with fully automated implantation.

The first clinical trials will be in people with severe paralysis.

Pigs are great models for research and can prove the robustness of the devices.
The neuralink devices will approach the cost of smartwatches.

They have a full custom ASIC with an analog front end to amplify and sense the microvolt signals. They need to be very energy efficient.
