Claim 10:
11. A prosthetic device comprising:
a moveable digit;
memory storing an operating profile, wherein the operating profile comprises a plurality of ranges, each range of the plurality of ranges corresponding to a different combination of a particular hand gesture of the moveable digit of the prosthetic device and a magnitude of an operating parameter of the particular hand gesture; and
at least one processor configured to:
receive a first input control signal from a first EMG sensor,
receive a second input control signal from a second EMG sensor,
identify a range of the plurality of ranges of the operating profile that corresponds to both the first input control signal and the second input control signal,
determine a selected hand gesture from at least three hand gestures based on the identified range of the operating profile,
determine a selected magnitude of the operating parameter based on the identified range of the operating profile, and
cause the moveable digit to transition directly from a current hand gesture to the selected hand gesture of the at least three hand gestures at or with the selected magnitude of the operating parameter.
