The South Korean technology giant has won a major tender to develop and further manufacture innovative fourth-generation chips for Neuralink.<\/p>\n<p>According to South Korean media, the two companies will combine technological efforts. The cooperation promises to be a landmark step in the market of modern commercial biointerfaces, combining Elon Musk\u2019s experience in creating revolutionary systems and the colossal semiconductor production capacity of the Samsung Electronics brand.<\/p>\n<p>Features of the Neuralink O1 chip<\/p>\n<p>The developers report that the fourth-generation Neuralink chip is created using Samsung Foundry\u2019s most advanced 4-nanometer technological process. The internal design codename of the processor is O1. The use of modern energy-efficient 4-nm architecture will increase the speed of processor signal exchange, make it extremely miniature and reduce power consumption. This is a key factor that directly affects the longevity of the biological interface within the cerebral cortex.<\/p>\n<p>Terms of development and release date of new generation implants<\/p>\n<p>According to the sources, practical research and design and research work on the fourth-generation chip began at the end of 2025. To date, companies are focused on the following phased release schedule:<\/p>\n<p>The first pilot batch of processors was released and tested last month;<br \/>\nThe full launch of the program for the supply of finished medical equipment is planned for the first half of 2027;<br \/>\nIf the entire series of clinical medical tests confirms the calculated indicators, the model will move to the phase of mass serial production already in the second half of next year.<\/p>\n<p>Fields of application of the chip: neurocomputer interfaces of the future<\/p>\n<p>Neuralink technical solutions are developed primarily as an innovative tool for digital rehabilitation of people with complex diseases. The powerful chip collects the neural potentials of the patient\u2019s brain and converts them into a digital code for controlling external smart home appliances, laptops, prosthetic limbs and electric cars without using any wires. For example, similar chips of Elon Musk of the previous generation helped a completely paralyzed person fully express his thoughts with the help of a smart software language module.<\/p>\n<p>Experts of the global technology market agree in a unanimous forecast that the alliance of Samsung Electronics and Elon Musk\u2019s promising high-tech enterprises in the field of robotics, transport and medicine will rapidly strengthen in the next few years.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"subscriptions-title\">Don&#8217;t miss interesting news<\/p>\n<p class=\"subscriptions-subtitle\">Subscribe to our channels and read announcements of high-tech news, tes<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Samsung Foundry division, known for the production of silicon wafers for a number of Elon Musk\u2019s companies,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":57120,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[1162,2878,127,276],"class_list":["post-57119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-samsung-electronics","tag-development","tag-health","tag-samsung","tag-samsung-electronics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57119"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57119\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57120"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
