Key Neuralink Terminology
Simple terms you must know to be a Neuralink expert
Action Potentials
Rapid electrical discharges from neurons detected as the primary signals in BCIs.
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI)
Tech enabling direct brain-to-device communication via thoughts.
CONVOY Study (Robotic Arm Control)
CONVOY trial using N1 implant for thought-controlled robotic arms.
Custom ASIC
Specialized integrated circuit designed by Neuralink for low-power neural signal processing.
Electrode Threads (or Threads)
Ultra-thin flexible threads with electrodes inserted into the brain.
Electrodes
Sensors on threads capturing electrical signals from neurons.
Hermetic Sealing or Hermetic Packaging
Airtight encapsulation protecting implant electronics from bodily fluids.
Motor Cortex
Brain area for movement intentions targeted by Neuralink.
Neuralink Implant (or The Link)
Coin-sized wireless Neuralink device for thought-controlled interfaces.
Patient Registry
Neuralink's platform for trial applications from those with paralysis or ALS.
Phosphenes
Light perceptions from visual cortex stimulation in Blindsight.
Quadriplegia
Paralysis of all limbs; Neuralink aims to restore control.
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)
Condition causing paralysis; Neuralink bypasses injury for device control.
