In biological circuits, sequential neural activity evolves along dynamic, low-dimensional manifolds to enable flexible behavior. Spiking network models link aspects of this sequential activity to features of manifold geometry through specific circuit mechanisms, making dynamic neural manifolds parameterizable, and thereby offering an explainable framework for neural computation. Extending this framework to neuromorphic engineering, we present an implementation on the SpiNNaker 2 chip for real-time, closed-loop control. By allowing sensory inputs to modulate heterogeneous inhibition, gain, and transient currents, our architecture drives rapid subspace rotations to switch between behaviors, as well as fine-grained trajectory control within them. We validate this via a robotic simulation where an agent uses sensory feedback to dynamically reconfigure its manifold geometry to navigate through a maze. Our results establish dynamic manifolds as a feasible approach for explainable neuromorphic architectures and a substrate for investigating biological neural dynamics.
