Austin -based startup Phantom Neuro is building a thin, flexible muscle implant to allow amputees a wider, more natural range of movement just by thinking about the gestures they want to make.
In a study conducted by the company, 10 participants in a study used a wearable version of the company’s sensors to control a robotic arm already on the market, achieving an average accuracy of 93.8 percent across 11 hand and wrist gestures.
Phantom plans to begin a clinical trial for its implanted version of its prosthetic prosthetic in 2025 .
Some companies are developing brain implants that would allow paralyzed people to control prosthetic limbs with their thoughts.
Phantom believes its implant could be inserted during an outpatient procedure without the need for a specialized surgeon.
