1. A method to control spatial positioning of a prosthetic device, the prosthetic device able to assume multiple spatial positions upon input from a subject, the method comprising:

  • recording an eye position of the subject to produce an eye position signal;

    recording a neural activity of the subject to produce a neural activity signal;

    combining the eye position signal and the neural activity signal to provide a recorded behavioral pattern;

    comparing the recorded behavioral pattern with at least one predetermined behavioral pattern to identify a matching predetermined behavioral pattern, the at least one predetermined behavioral pattern associated with at least one predetermined spatial position of the prosthetic device; and

    positioning the prosthetic device in the spatial position associated with the matching predetermined behavioral pattern.
