Advanced prosthetic devices are currently controlled by electromyography (EMG) signals generated by patient's stump muscles and recorded by surface electrodes attached on the skin. This way of recordings is often unreliable, inconsistent and leading to high prosthetic abandonment rates for individuals with upper limb amputation. The use of implantable electrodes has been long thought as the solution for a more natural control of artificial limbs, as these offer access to long-term stable and physiologically appropriate sources of control, as well as the possibility to elicit appropriate sensory feedback via neurostimulation.
