REGULATORY STAGE

Investigational

Phantom Neuro takes a peripheral route to prosthetic and robotic control, using minimally invasive muscle implants and AI decoding rather than cortical interfaces. This gives it a pragmatic path to market, with lower procedural burden than brain implants and potentially stronger signal fidelity than surface EMG.
