Abstract
A variety of cognitive variables can be decoded from neural activity and used for neural prosthetic control by subjects. These higher-level signals are complementary to motor variables that describe the details of movement. In the future, combining cognitive-based and motor-based approaches in a single prosthetic system could lead to the greatest benefits for patients.
