Elon Musk claims Neuralink will implant its first vision devices in the next 6 to 12 months, writing directly to the visual cortex — including for people 100% blind from birth. He further claims a long-term roadmap of ultra-HD resolution and "superpowers" like infrared, ultraviolet, and even radar vision.
Note these are Musk's own claims without peer-reviewed data, and his timelines have historically been optimistic.
