The disembodied voice of PharmaCoreAsia boomed all over the plaza: "We're designing the first neural implant that will let you control a device anywhere you go. Micron-scale threads are inserted into areas of the brain that control movement. Each thread contains many electrodes and connects them to an implant, the Link. The threads on the Link are so fine and flexible that they can't be inserted by the human hand". Am I daydreaming fifty odd so year from now, or is this happening now?
