Abstract
A device for anatomic implantation to provide electrical interface to nerves. Included in the device are a pair of electrical leads secured to a coupling formed from a piece of woven sheet material, and having ends connected to spaced apart input terminals disposed adjacent to an inner surface of the coupling. Connected to the opposite ends of the leads are output terminals for interfacing to electrical recording or measuring instruments. The input terminals receive desired nerve signals while other unwanted anatomic signals are rejected by an insulative case that covers the woven coupling.
