- April 5 -- Neuroscientist Sheila Nirenberg received a MacArthur Genius Award for figuring out, for the first time ever, how our retinas take images from the outside world and turn them into a neural “code” that the brain can understand. It started as a pure research project, but now she’s building the code into a device that could bring sight to the blind. (Video by Alan Jeffries)

Imagine how happy would blind people be
It would make me happy to see them happy
Yes, and it's been 7 years, and how is it now? Has something happened
Why can't this be on the news. It's so amazing and this is from a person that is partially sighted blind. I hope in the future someone can crack it and help a lot of people. If not the sooner
Because trump bad

Yeaaa sure
I have started developing hearing loss at raw age of 19. Don't know why I am watching nthis but it's a pure blessing. Hope every disabled person be accepted by society in the same way it entertains normal person.
Brings me hope. If I met that researcher I'd thank her and tell her she's one of my heroes.
The way my vision is going... I think I will need this soon!!!
hi dude !
I saw a detailed article on this in (I think) "MIT Tech Review"magazine. This woman is just **amazing!**
I reckon she will have a Nobel Prize in Medicine for this research some time in the next few years.
Please help Tommy Edison see!
perry decosmo lmao! That’s why I even searched for such a video in the first place xD I’d like to see his reaction so much on that whole thing.
Yes
@@FurryDanOriginal same
Actually, i was looking this video because tommy tho.
tommy was born blind and im not sure if there will ever be a way to cure that exactly.
look how popular this video is. for 4 years only 51k views. this shows how much our society cares about scientific breakthroughs n improvements.
if this is true then this is one step closer to true VR as you could feed a virtual world into someone's brain
This is so brilliant! I had this eye accident when I was around 5 years old and now I’m on one side totally blind. I wish something like this would ever work for those who needed it. But I’m glad that they are people like you working on this ❤️ Thank you.
❤❤❤❤❤
Interesting, maybe it has possibilities, but it's too early to get overly excited yet. I'm legally blind. Anything that could make my vision near normal would help, and that's exciting. But the human eye and the nerves that send the images and the brain that processes them? That's hugely complex. The retina has this enormous array of tiny cells to pick up an image finer than any camera or computer screen. How your eyes, nerves, and brain manage that huge amount of information in real-time to create a visual, meaningful image is a tough task to figure out. What are the tricks the eye, nerves, and brain use to gather the raw information from the real world and then send it and then process it? If we can get even a simple, basic idea of how our vision works, that would help towards restoring sight, either biologically (transplants or cell/tissue/organ repair) or with prosthetics (implants and/or external devices like artificial eyes). I would love for something to work. The research looks very early and just a rough approximation, but that is fine. I sure hope the research can continue and will help somehow.
Do you have any thoughts on NeuralLink?
There's a man that sees through the electral nerves on his tongue which send images to his brain its amazing google it come up on CZcams
I wanna study this is my interest in life imagine just restoring peoples visions who have gone blind and get so happy i know so many people who would be grateful to be able to see again
I pray that the blind people will see someday
6:25
As scientists, we all accept that fate. Thank you for your service
Were nearly there folks
So blessed to still be able to somewhat see... rather than so blessed meaning to see perfectly fine?
I pray for this neuroscientist and for her success.🙏
The birth of the MATRIX.
Get it Gurley 💪
Супер! Браво исследователям, бросающим вызов таким трудным проблемам человечества!
interested in what happened with this technology 7 years later
amazing simply love it :) excellent research
Excellent Excellent well done Lady
Then hit that thing up with red, green, and blue in each pixel. Now you can see color too. They need to start working on bioengineered eyes for completely blind and legally blind people too.
I actually hope I can work in that field next time. I'm half deaf and not having all five senses really sucks.
Amazing
Amazing.
Why can't eye hospitals even suggest this? You'd have an inexhaustible supply of willing volunteers 🙋🏾♀️
all we need is science 🙁
+Valii Cuca and semen - lots and lots of semen
Gods will and team work
Wow. Amazing.
I would love to try the trial
Has there been any further developments
Even better is an implantable patch of genetically engineered cells to restore the macula, which is where central vision is performed by the eye. They are using it in England, and UC Berkeley is working on it, but not available for us yet. Anything electronic will always be second best.
Just great, that's the part of humanity which is just great
amazing
I was thinking the same, some sort of vr system that enables one totally blind eye to replicate that of a camera lens or some sort , wireless contact camera lenses , but like wiring , what code and cable from the eye goes where 😞
now all we need is the code for moving body parts and prosthetics can feel real and act real
This is verr interesting , I wonder if they already tested it with two cameras , to other then create diferent images for both eyes , make them have a depth sense , and maybe if it doesnt work integrate it with Li-dar or something.
awesome
Energy conversion, same as all method I've used from the stocks, disruptive tech, to Jarvis..it's all about that..
I had a CRAO three years ago which left me totally blind in one eye. The retina was completely fried and the optic nerve was damaged. I still haven't gotten used to it....
Yes, Argus I and Argus II research is about this
Hey guys you did a tremendous job and I really like it this invention I am also visually impaired and this is it really need for everyone think you
i want to research on this because my brother is blind i wanna do some thing for him .. i wanna start research for my Ms computer science degree Research but i m looking for a professor like you .
Wt happened to your brother sir?
I also had the same idea few years back
Omg I will totally volunteer for human testing on this , please let me know where I can sign up for this 🙏🙏
is there any contact or official email with the Doctor
any updates on this yet? its been 7 years
Still really cool
I saw a show in 2006 in which they used gene therapy to restore a person's vision who had this disease. 14 years later, people are still suffering. I wish there would be a complete overhaul of the medical community. I think they are way too cautious and slow moving.
Whats the latest researh regarding this. Can anybody share links plz
Can we buy it?
I have check my video out 3d Haptic Vest for the Visually Impaired
So what happened with this technology did they test it?
What’s the song in the background 6:37
Will it work for retina detached patients
I have a cousin that has lived with me and my family for 15 years he’s know me my whole life and he lost his vision when I was about 5 or 6 I’m 13 now and he still even see how I look today he can only hear a voice and words😔
😒
Natural encryption. Human Try to decrypt
Anyone know the music in the background of this video?
is this real? if so, that's awesome!
When device available in
Any update?
the cost please
Maybe soon Part of Full Dive VR technology "Nerve gear"
Oh, stop that, that's making me blush..
Will this help someone with Starguardt disease?
absolutely. basically all retina disorders are caused by the same mechanism of oxidative stress. stargardts would be a perfect candidate.. if this ever pans out :)
I subbed
Can my eye glaucoma blind i can't see can they restore my vision bk please answer please
This is so exited, my daughter is blind and is 10 years I wish this would help her, she lost her vision at age 7 years..
Whats your thoughts on NeuralLink?
Hi. Does it work for people without eyeballs ?? Please, I want to know
As it uses implants and external camera, it will only use human brain. Nothing else
this was 7 years ago, so any progress?
5:16 that baby is the avatar
Would you see "a baby's face", or would you see that baby's face? (My girlfriend is blind.)
Was she born blind or did something happen
Can be to ROP retinopathy of prematurely stage5 legally blnd
Wish this could help my vision. . But I'm not that lucky.
Nearly four years ago now. What has become of this?
Clinical trials are ongoing/recruitment stage. Company name is bionic sight.
@@Devork35 is this effective or not?
AMAZINGLYING INSANE I WANT LATE STEVE JOBS TO WORK ON THIS
Jobs didn't even believe in science. He was a fucking moron.
+Sunt Zu He told people what to do by telling Wozniak what the computer should do and then Steve Jobs showed every thing that Apple made to Bill Gates and Gates jacked the idea and made it better. Steve Jobs was sort of useless because he didn't actually contribute anything other than decision making.
+Hagen Torvald what's your problem....
He will be remembered. As an uncharitable, unintelligent, mouth breathing fuckboy.
+Hagen Torvald "mouth breathing fuckboy" what's that even supposed to mean lol
Blind and Deaf US Military Veterans should Demand that the US government release NSA Remote Neural Monitoring technology to Restore Sight and Hearing for American Disabled veterans and humans - 2024
Nuralink. Search it.
Now if only someone can finally move onto conductive hearing loss that be fukn great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
f you are interested in bionic eyes, take a look at this bionic-inspired approach based on fractal patterns: @
This is very interesting, but the music and strange sounds you are playing during the video robs me of hearing the spoken word, Is it necessary?
What her name?
Shes normal when you look.. But very extraordinary intelligence
that is incredible.. can they convert that signal back into an image to show how it works?
I'm not sure I get how this works..
My uncle loose his sight in a attack by the thugs... He is completely blind now... Many doctor is saying he can't see again... Is their way that its possible for him to see again.. He has 2 daughters and he can t see them grow up...
Energy conversion, that's same as my brain enhancer and Elon neuralink
الحمد الله رب العالمين
نعم اخي هذا شيئ جميل جدا. انا ادعو الي الله ان يسمح هذا.
macular degeneration someone is experimenting on a friend in Yorkshire UK injections in the eye f that apart from that she seems 2 b an extremely clever woman best wishes 2 her
do two-letter words really need abbreviating
ope u go blind
@@ytubeanon get a life who gives a crap nerd
@@diameadozen you say it doesn't matter then waste your time replying, hypocrite
@@ytubeanon I'm the hypocrite you know what the person is saying why does it matter how they said it Mr know it all you to get a life idiot.
It seems suited for.Optic Atrophy
What kind of math do i need to understand that job?
Now instead of photons being converted into neura-codes and sent to the brain, lets just artificially create neura-codes and send it to the brain for a Full Dive gaming experience...👍

Pls. Help me to see again i am a visually impaired from the phillipines
Long story short: We are robots.
Science rectifying nature's faults ...
This vision decoding shouldn't be used on humans , it should be used for artificial intelligence , use dna techniques to regain vision
I think they should focus on crispr cas9 and stem cell which cure blindness very much better then this.
Does it work if you got no eye balls? 😂
I find gaming eediots commenting here
You all are doing it wrong
