Overall, the "Utah electrodes" stand above other electrodes when considering its three-dimensional configuration. While other electrodes deal very well with longitudinal acquisition in nerves (such as "LIFE") or even with it transversally (e.g. "TIME"), USEA takes advantage of its slanted array-shaped setup to acquire it in both planes. In our case, however, we will be implanting USEA USEAs  in the cortical area, where we will benefit of its three-dimensionality when acquiring signals from multiple neurons within the same functional area and, simultaneously, sensing different depths of the cortex, which are directly related to signal transmission to other brain structures.
