Technology advances in an amazing way, and although it usually brings bad news, on this occasion we can see something very positive. As you probably already know, the first implementation of the Neuralink chip in a person happened some time ago. To demonstrate its benefits, A video has been shared where we can see a person playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with your brain.
Nolan Urbaugh is a 29-year-old man who unfortunately, suffered an accident that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Fortunately, he was selected for the Neuralink operation, which implanted a chip in his brain that enabled him to control various electronic devices. To demonstrate the rapid progress and benefits this technology offers, Elon Musk’s company shared where we can see Arbaugh performs various activities including sports Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Neuralink was kind enough to open their doors for a tour of their headquarters a few weeks ago. It was an amazing experience and a day I will never forget. It was a company wide meeting at the end of the day. Thanks to those who made it possible. Hope you all enjoy!… pic.twitter.com/YNa2Jtjhnk

In the video we see Arbaugh competing with his father by choosing Bowser. Although the Neuralink user did not win the race, He did a great performance using the item and nearly won, all using your brain chip. beside Mario Kart 8 DeluxeArbaugh experimented with titles like Civilization VI and Chess, and all tests yielded positive results.
Neuralink’s limits are currently unknown, but perhaps some companies will take this demonstration into account. Let’s remember that Microsoft has made a great effort so that people with disabilities can enjoy their games. Although the implementation of this technology can be somewhat expensive, It allows us to see that there is room for people with severe disabilities to enjoy all that this medium has to offer us..
Perhaps in the future we’ll see NeuraLink and the Xbox Adaptive Controller working together. On a related note, Neuralink user shows us how he plays chess. Similarly, Elon Musk showed off his Neuralink technology.
Editor’s note:
This is a great technological advancement that, I hope, many companies will take advantage of in the future While its implementation will certainly be high, the important thing is to offer an option for those who have suffered an accident but want to continue enjoying the games.
