New details have emerged about a secret Pentagon project that aims to directly connect soldiers' brains to military technology, raising concerns about the development of futuristic weapons.
The US agency DARPA has been working on a brain-computer interface that allows drones and other military systems to be controlled solely through thought, without the need for surgical intervention.
The program, known as N3 (Next-Generation Nonsurgical Neurotechnology), aimed to create a portable device that reads brain signals and transmits information in real time between the soldier and military equipment.
A project that disappeared silently
Launched in 2018, the project went through three phases of development, including animal testing and then human testing. However, after the third phase, which included real-world testing, there have been no public updates since 2023.
DARPA has declared the project "completed," but has not provided details on whether the technology is functional or in use.
New weapons and speculation
The revelation comes at a time when the US claims to have used advanced technologies in military operations, including sonic weapons and sophisticated systems for tracking people through their heartbeats.
These developments have increased speculation about a new era of warfare, where technology and biology increasingly intertwine.
From medicine to military use
While similar technologies, such as those developed by private companies, are primarily used for medical treatments, DARPA aimed to apply them to healthy individuals, paving the way for broader uses in the future.
A questionable future
Although the project has been declared completed, the lack of transparency over the results has raised major questions.
Experts warn that such developments could fundamentally change the way conflicts unfold in the future, making the line between man and machine increasingly blurred. /GazetaExpress/
