[Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] hello everybody so that that video was not shutterstock that was actually your link so that that's actual video from the company so if you want to get a sense for what it's like to work near a link that video is indicative of the atmosphere of your link it's an incredibly talented team and you're gonna hear a lot from from them tonight so we're gonna actually go quite into depth on what we're doing why we're doing how we're doing it and I'm just incredibly impressed with the caliber of of talent at your link and the in fact the the main reason for during this presentation is recruiting and this will be a slow process where we will gradually increase the issues that we solve until ultimately we can do a full brain machine interface yeah those are going to sound pretty weird but achieve a sort of symbiosis with artificial intelligence but I think with a high bandwidth brain machine interface I think we can actually go along for the ride and we can effectively have the option of merging with AI and this is extremely important of nearly 100 billion cells called neurons neurons come in many complex shapes but generally they have a dendritic Arbor a cell body called a Selma and an axon the neurons of your brain connect to form a large network through axon dendrite junctions called synapses but these connection points neurons communicate with each other using chemical signals called neurotransmitters neurotransmitters are released from the end of an axon in response to an electrical spike called an action potential when a cell receives enough of the right kind of neurotransmitter input a chain reaction is triggered that causes an action potential to fire and the neuron to in turn relay messages to its own downstream synapses action potentials produce an electric field that spreads from the neuron and can be detected by placing electrodes nearby allowing recording of the information represented by a neuron a goal is to record from and stimulate spikes in neurons and do so in a way that is orders of magnitude more than anything has been done to date and safe and good enough that you can it's not like a major operation it's sort of equivalent to just sort of a LASIK type of thing so this is in contrast to the the best fda-approved system which is like a Parkinson's deep brain stimulation a thing which would have on the order of 10 electrodes so the system even in version 1 that we're going to unveil today is capable of a thousand times more electrodes than the the best system out there and they're all read and write so this is this is really quite I think I mean for something to be a thousand times more than what is public approved is quite a big difference so that there's there's very tiny threads that are about...
