Today, the US military’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) announced a program that aims to build an implantable neural device that would allow the human brain to communicate directly with a computer. Roughly the size of a sugar cube, this device would attempt to achieve real-time communication between the brain and computer by using binary code. The program, dubbed Neural Engineering System Design (NESD), would dramatically improve research capability in neurotechnology as well as providing for new advanced therapies aimed at improving deficits in sight or hearing. NESD would feed digital auditory or visual information to the brain in a…
