This funding comes on the heels of two significant designations received by Phantom X from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) - Breakthrough Device Designation and TAP (Targeted Acceleration Pathway) Designation. These designations validate the platform's potential to improve patient outcomes by providing lifelike control of prosthetic limbs and assistive devices, and also help expedite regulatory approvals.
In addition to these achievements, Phantom Neuro's ASCENT study demonstrated that Phantom X achieved an impressive 94% accuracy in decoding real-time gestures across 11 essential hand and wrist movements. This further supports the platform's potential to restore function and independence for individuals with mobility impairments.
With this latest round of funding and support from Ottobock, Phantom Neuro is well-positioned to continue its groundbreaking work in advancing human-machine interfaces and revolutionizing the field of neurotechnology.
