So we're looking at different needle design for that, as well as the kind of the loop engagement. The other biggest challenges are it's quite opaque optically with white light illumination. So how do you avoid still this biggest advantage that we have of avoiding vasculature? How do you image through that? How do you actually still mediate that?

So there are other imaging techniques that we're looking at to enable that. But our hypothesis is that, and based on some of the early evidence that we have, doing through the dura insertion will cause minimal scarring that causes them to be much easier to extract over time.

And the other thing that we're also looking at, this is going to be a fundamental change in the implant architecture is at the moment, it's a monolithic single implant that comes with a thread that's bonded together.

So you can't actually separate the thing out, but you can imagine having two-part implant, you know, bottom part that is the thread that are inserted that has the chips and maybe a radio and some power source. And then you have another implant that has more of the computational heavy load and the bigger battery.

And then one can be under the dura, one can be above the dura, like, you know, being the plug for the skull. They can talk to each other, but the thing that you want to upgrade, the computer and not the threads, if you want to upgrade that, you just go in there, you know, remove the screws and then put in the next version. And, you know, you're off the, you know, it's a very, very easy surgery too.

Like you do a skin incision, slip this in, screw, probably be able to do this in 10 minutes.

Yeah, that is a priority. So for next versions of the implant, the key metrics that we're looking to improve are number of channels, just recording from more and more neurons. We have a pathway to actually go from currently 1,000 to hopefully 3,000, if not 6,000 by end of this year. And then end of next year, we want to get to even more, 16,000. There's a couple of limitations to that.
