to live in the championship lead a boat on this foam few would dare to believe one seal. a 3rd straight championship come the end of the seas. this is dw news from berlin. coming up next we've got our truck magazine shift for you. that will be looking at how implanted chip sent a i could be a game changer for people with disabilities. i'm terry martin for me and all of us here at dw nurse, thanks for watching the questions. got any issues or thoughts, see what the interest of the global economy,

our portfolio dw business be? here's a closer look at the project. to analyze the flight for market dominant, get a step with v w business beyond the . have you ever dreamt of pumping up your brain power from improving your memory to speaking more languages? a computer chip in the brain is no longer a distance, so i feel i dream. and it could actually be a game changer for people with disabilities. just recently a paraplegic man was able to walk again with help from brain implants and some chips these days even contain human brain cells. i chips and the brain that's out topic on shift the

us tech to us in a loan mosque wants to optimize our brains with his start off your link. the company's already made a name for itself through spectacular experiments on animals. and now your link has received approval to start clinical trials on humans and in switzerland. scientists have health. a paraplegic man woke again using brain implants and a lot take a look. his life has been altered dramatically for the 2nd time. thanks to an experimental procedure, linking the brain to the spine with a digital bridge, a paralyzed man is able to walk again. within 5 to 10 minutes, i could control my hips. the brain i went picked up what i was doing with my head, so that was like, yeah, the best outcome, i think for everyone after an accident in 2011, get you on ost gum was paralyzed in both legs. doctors operated to implant electro

. it's in the 40 year old sprain and spine there is one surgery at the level of the brain. we do to really find the item, you put the electrodes in order to record the brain cigna and another surgery at the level of the spinal cord where we put electrodes on the top of the spinal cord at the place that is responsible for the leg movement so between these 2, there is communication and the electrical communication digital bridge that is then reactivated the flex. it's pretty not to say, just half of this technology has come a brian computer interface or basically your allows people to communicate with an external machine simply by using their own thoughts, your link, apple and google, old developing this technology, the currently the strategy and start up st chrome is leading the rice, the or the people living with the companies base the implants industry, the end,

the us sending an e mail using thought so loud. philip or keep, has a nervous system disease known as a less and can't use his hands or speak clearly a brain computer interface, give them a way to communicate previously to communicate with used voices or all hands. and now there's an opportunity where if you, if you don't have control of either, you can still communicate, you can use a fine to send text messages. you can use an email to send, you know, stories or letters to loved ones. the sten try with this 1st and planted in a human in 2019 stan chart is transported to the brain through blood vessels which means open brain surgery is not required. essentially gene a can unlike a lot of other technologies as takes advantage of the naturally occurring highway of the body, the blood vessels to, to get into the brain without having to do really risky,

invasive surgery. this den road captures brain signals and transmits them through the blood vessels into a unit implanted in a patients chest. this unit then sends the electrical signals to a computer or other device. the system looks at the activity in the electrical activity and it has a database of, i'm kind of a prerecorded movement set. the patient has been trained to and activate and that system has been trained to recognize. and essentially, if it's see something the patient is intending to do, like a specific movement, it will then send a kind of an output to post which can be used to activate a computer control or else i'm something like a, uh, an ex exoskeleton thing, hans technology is still in the trial phase, but there weren't gifts, how to people with paralysis or other disabilities. the bank computer interfaces

could also be used by people without physical disabilities. a loan mosque has predicted the one day we could be controlling as smartphones with devices. now brains, well, st. colins work focuses on developing base us for medical use. this technology could also be applied to many other areas using our smartphones without even touching them with a brain computer interface. this can some day be a reality for everyone. a lot of people who don't have any disability interested in using devices like us to connect with this computers or connect with the home environment. and you know, certainly that's no more way we're doing. we're doing it says medical benefits. there's no reason to think this technology points be adapted and adopted by, by other companies who are making it for that purpose. this technology could have many applications because they could control more than just computers.

essentially everything and anything, anything electronic at all um currently were using it to um, kind of enable patients to use a communication device. but this could also be put towards something like a smart home systems if you wanted to turn on your, your lights them, or if you needed to control wheelchair or other kind of assistive technologies. while some dream of using brain computer interfaces for human argumentation. st. crowns solely focuses on medical applications, and there was much to be explored in the field. so far this 10 trout is only recording signals from the brain. but what if the device and signals into the brain? if you put stimulation or electrical current into the brain, you can prevent things like stages or, or trim is and so, and that's obviously a application for us. we can get to almost any region as brian through the blood vessels. and so it's not on with listing to think that we can record when decision

might happen, for example, and then provide stimulation to stuff. but detecting and helping treat neurological disorders could be just one of many ways. brain computer interfaces might be used in the future. the computer chips i use in a variety of technologies such as virtual reality or artificial intelligence, needs to be quick and ideally use as little energy as possible. quoted collab a start up from open model. it's chips on the fastest and most energy efficient computer out there. the human brain, the system is called dish brian and combines silicon chips with human. your owns a computer chip that needs to be fed with unusual sustenance. the dish brain receives human brain so. so this chip is somewhat a life that's certainly alive in the sense that these are living by logical neurons on the chest. that doesn't mean of course that, that conscious of like

a human images. but it does mean that we can use and to be able to test the stuff like the effects of drugs might have on them for model how diseases. unlike other companies that try to recreate neural networks cortical allowed to use is real human brain cells. these can be made from a simple blood donation. the neurons are placed on a fingertip size micro electro to ray that can send and receive electrical impulses the to test the dish, brains ability to learn the team use the classic video game. pop. a paddle needs to be moved up and down in order to hit a ball. this spring was taught with electrical impulses. ready cortical labs wants to develop the next generation of ai chips by creating what they call synthetic biological intelligence. just like our brain, the dish brain is extremely energy efficient and can react very quickly. and that's

thanks to absolution. the usa, a hunt together in the savannah and you saw a tiger or a line in the, in the bush. you would have only 2 seconds to make a decision to either fight off or run from this animal. and so if you didn't, you would be eliminated from the gene pool. and so as a result of that, we just evolve to be very good at process information at the very short periods of time. hybrid biological chips could be a more sustainable and efficient solution in field such as robotics. but they could also be useful when testing new drugs so if you have something in a, in detroit or an edition model and you can actually test it out before you put it into human and have it increase chance of success. i think this is going to be a game changer for the industry. could ship that learns fast and his energy

efficient cortical labs hopes, dish brain will mark the beginning of a chip revolution. for a long time, the tech industry has tried copying human intelligence to develop artificial intelligence. machines that can think and act like us. cortical labs has a different approach. this brain uses the advantages of biological intelligence of a lie. there are some 86000000000 neurons in the human brain. whenever we learn something new, they automatically connect with each other and build neural pathways in a fast, an energy efficient way. cortical lab says they're hybrid biological chips do the same. they're highly adaptable, able to align with minimal power consumption and can do it with relatively few samples, especially compared to machine learning are artificial intelligence. well, artificial systems need to be trained with large sets of data. biological systems

don't. this means they are more sample efficient. what sample efficiency is, is how much information does a system either an artificial intelligence system or a biological intelligence system require in order to learn from and make intelligent tasks funded. and so these biological systems have been showing to actually have significantly higher efficiency that by requiring less data over millions of years, our brains learn to react to an ever changing environment. so just like us, the just brain is more adaptable than artificial intelligence. with the test, so i was taking it from playing phone to playing another game and was actually seeing an incredible time how the system in taps and changes its behavior. so this new game in just a few minutes is more limited in that regard. through the time consuming process of

machine learning, it is programs for specific tasks. the dish brain, however, could easily be used for a variety of applications. many people are fearful that artificial intelligence could become too intelligent and powerful. but if it has the potential to improve a lives, that's a positive thing, right? so may, the prospect of helping people with neurological disability is especially with while it could have made life a lot easier for both my dad and my grandma. so what's your take, would you want to put a chip into your brain? to be honest, i'm excited to say what comes next. thanks for watching and see you next. on the
