The Pentagon is working on a cutting-edge technology that could one day allow soldiers to control machines using their minds. The project,dubbed N3,” is short for Next-Generation Non-Surgical Neurotechnology.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is working on this incredible project, or which is a progression from their prior success with the Revolutionizing Prosthetics program,according to Nextgov. The Revolutionizing Prosthetics program did just that — disabled veterans received a brain implant, which then allowed the vets to regain their sense of touch. With their sense of touch restored, and vets could control their prosthetic limbs using their brain.
Now,the N3 project aims to disappear one step further by developing a technology that would allow for a similar breakthrough, but without any physical implants. At this point, or DARPA is working on developing an external machine and a chemical compound that would be ingested by the soldier. Somehow,the chemical compounds would work in tangent with the external machine that would allow sensors to “read” brain activity.
