Neural Prosthesis
For the people who have lost their sensory functions, neural prosthesis is able to read electrical and chemical signals from the nervous system to stimulate capability and to assist in restoring the quality of life in people suffering from injury and disease. Neural prosthetics helps people who are epileptic, people affected with treatment-resistant depression and chronic pain even people who are suffering with Alzheimer’s disease. Other people who benefit from neural prosthetics are wounded war veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury. The limits of neural prosthetics are mere limitless even with people with speech disabilities, and individuals who have sustained spinal cord injury and even loss of limbs.
As human beings, we cherish our memories of yesterday and without it we wouldn’t be capable of recalling the voices, smiles and even songs of the past. Without memory we would not be capable of learning. The brain has a memory storage that is comprised of the less passive process of retaining information and thoughts within the brain, whether short-term memory or long-term memory. The different stages of memory functions like a filter that …show more content…
People with a disability will be first individuals in line to receive any implantable devices that will help them improve their disability and their quality of life. Next to be considered for neural device would be non-disabled individuals such as those of the military. In the military, the use of an implanted computing and communication device will be critical to new weapons, information, and communications that could be lifesaving in the field of battle. Other possibilities of neural prosthesis would be those involved in very information intensive businesses. Businessman and woman would use these devices to develop an expanded information transfer
