1. A spinal cord stimulator comprising:
a flexible substrate comprised of a flexible material that is configured to have a Young's modulus of less than 3 MPa, the flexible substrate forming a contiguous structure housing all of:
a power source embedded in the flexible substrate;
a controller embedded in the flexible substrate and connected to the power source; and
an array of electrodes, including an array of stimulation electrodes and an array of sensing electrodes, disposed on a surface of the flexible substrate and connected to the controller,
wherein the controller is configured to direct the array of stimulation electrodes on the surface of the flexible substrate to deliver a stimulation pattern to a spinal cord of a patient, and
wherein the controller is configured to perform machine learning, responsive to the signals received from the array of sensing electrodes, to determine a set of stimulation parameters, and
wherein the controller is configured to adjust the stimulation pattern according to the set of stimulation parameters, and
wherein the controller includes a neuromorphic computing component.
