China achieves a milestone in medical technology, performing the first commercial brain chip implant to restore hand function in a spinal cord injury patient.

Coin-sized implant marks a breakthrough in neurotechnology, underscoring China’s bid to lead the global race against Elon Musk’s Neuralink.

The device, called NEO, records neuronal activity and translates it to movements made a metal glove worn by a patient.

Shanghai surgeons implanted Neuracle's NEO, the first commercially approved brain-computer interface. It sits on the brain rather than piercing it.
