Systems and methods for neuromodulation device coding with trans-species libraries

A system for neuromodulation device coding for stimulation of a patient, comprising:

• (a) a neural code library comprising a plurality of digital representations of neural responses of neural units of at least one normal functioning animal, wherein each of the plurality of digital representations of neural responses corresponds to one of a plurality of digital representations of stimulus;
• (b) a sensory device configured to detect a sensory signal;
• (c) an analyzer in communication with the sensory device, configured to identify one of the digital representations of stimulus in the neural code library in response to the receipt of the sensory signal;
• (d) a processing device in communication with the neural code library and the analyzer, configured, for each identified sensory signal, to
• retrieve the digital representations of neural responses of neural units corresponding to the identified sensory signal from the neural code library;
• and
• select one or more neural units of a patient to be stimulated by a neuromodulation device associated with the patient;
• and
• (e) a transmitting device in communication with the processing device and the neuromodulation device, configured to stimulate the selected one or more neural units of the patient.
