When Neural Interface Technology was used to fit Comrade Li Gaoliang with titanium alloy prosthetic legs and help him stand again, the information technology experts at the Institute for Advanced Study had once discussed this very topic with him.
It was not merely about helping paraplegic patients with damaged spinal nerves stand again.
If complex visual and auditory signals could also be compiled and simulated like motor signals, allowing devices to connect directly to neural prosthetics or the brain, then perhaps the Neural-Interface Virtual Reality Technology of fantasy—where consciousness entered a digital world—would no longer remain a fantasy.
At the time, Lu Zhou had said that it was indeed an interesting subject worth researching. However, he had a pile of more important matters waiting for him, so he had cast the matter to the back of his mind.
Now that Carbon-Based Chip technology had achieved a revolutionary breakthrough, and he had more points than he knew how to spend, Ye Nan's reminder brought the matter back to Lu Zhou's mind.
Thinking of Vera, who was still lying in the hibernation pod, Lu Zhou felt that if he could not awaken her for the time being, he should at least try to do something for her.
Though he also knew that the chances of this thing working on her were exceedingly slim...
After changing clothes, Lu Zhou sat before his computer and organized what he had written down.
Simply put, the core components of this technology could mainly be divided into three modules.
The first was neural signal acquisition, the second was neural signal processing, and the last was neural signal simulation—the stage where information was ultimately fed back to the brain.
The technical difficulty of these three core components increased in that order.
Acquiring neural signals was very simple. EEG
