Noland Arbaugh , 30 , was paralysed below the shoulders in a diving accident in 2016 .
He was the first person to get a mind-reading chip implanted in his brain.
The chip works by detecting electrical impulses generated when humans think about moving.
It translates these impulses into digital commands, such as moving a cursor on a screen.
Noland says he is now able to play chess and video games with the chip.
Neuralink is one of many companies exploring how to digitally tap into our brain power.
Synchron says its Stentrode device requires less invasive surgery to implant.
It is installed into a person's jugular vein in their neck, then moved up to their brain through a blood vessel.
