1. A prosthetic device comprising:
a moveable digit;
memory storing an operating profile, wherein the operating profile comprises a plurality of sets of ranges, each set of ranges of the plurality of sets of ranges corresponding to a different combination of a respective hand gesture of the moveable digit and a magnitude of an operating parameter for the respective hand gesture; and
at least one processor configured to:
receive a plurality of input control signals from a plurality of electromyography (EMG) sensors;
determine a single input command signal based at least in part on the plurality of input control signals;
concurrently select a particular hand gesture and a particular magnitude of an operating parameter for the particular hand gesture based on a comparison of the single input command signal with the operating profile, wherein the particular hand gesture and the particular magnitude of the operating parameter are selected based on a particular set of ranges of the plurality of sets of ranges that corresponds to the single input command signal; and
instruct the moveable digit to perform a digit movement corresponding to the selected hand gesture at or with the selected magnitude of the operating parameter.
