Sal-Meter System Overview
A rapid overview of the Sal-Meter as a CAIS-aligned molecular–electrochemical measurement architecture: what it measures, how the stack is organized, how it differs from proxy benchmark systems, where researchers, engineers, PIs, and builders can enter, and which canonical records control designation, boundary, and interpretation.
What this page does
This page gives a fast structural answer to four questions: What does the Sal-Meter measure? How is the stack organized? Where do researchers and engineers enter? and how does the Sal-Meter core track differ from the proxy benchmark track?
It is intentionally written as a public helper surface for readers, engineers, research leads, PIs, and hiring candidates. It does not fix naming authority, compliance interpretation, certification status, conformance status, mark usage, or canonical definitions. Those remain in the DOI / OSF canonical layer.
What this page must now clarify
Core track first
Sal-Meter is the core molecular–electrochemical signal path. The page must show External Layer-0, internal locking, Twin Mini-Cell, and LOCK 1 / LOCK 2 as the core execution logic.
Kernel GitHub added
Sal-Meter Kernel GitHub must appear as the core technical gateway for ESL / EStL, PIs, electrochemical systems contributors, and evidence-standardization readers.
Proxy track separated
Human-State-Aware AI and Proxy Benchmark GitHub must remain proxy benchmark support routes, not Sal-Meter core validation.
Two tracks must not be confused
The Sal-Meter core track asks whether a new molecular–electrochemical signal interface can exist. The Proxy Benchmark Track builds synchronized multimodal comparison infrastructure using existing human-state proxy signals.
Sal-Meter core signal track
- Aptamer–iodine redox sensing
- Iodine redox / thiol interface feasibility
- G-only and I-only kernel locking
- Twin Mini-Cell leak and cross-talk control
- LOCK 1 / LOCK 2 before SDK or broader opening
Proxy benchmark track
- ECG, HRV, EDA, PPG, EEG, eye / gaze, and behavioral timing
- Synchronized multimodal benchmark platform
- Metadata discipline and leakage-safe evaluation
- Baseline models, replayable notebooks, and local dashboards
- Future comparison layer for Sal-Meter inputs
Boundary rule
- Proxy signals are not Sal-Meter
- GitHub helper materials are not canonical authority
- No diagnostic or therapeutic claim
- No CAIS compliance or certification claim
- No broad opening claim before LOCK 1 / LOCK 2

App / dashboard layer
Human-readable display, comparison, logging, and downstream research interfaces.
Where this overview places the system
Non-clinical human-state interaction research
- Research-stage observation of state-linked signal patterns
- Non-clinical interaction and feedback-loop prototypes
- Longitudinal research logs under consent and metadata discipline
- No diagnosis, therapy, treatment, or medical interpretation
Research
- Consciousness science hypothesis testing
- Exploratory validation across controlled state transitions
- Signal separation and reproducibility studies
- Cross-lab protocol development
Future downstream layers
- AI alignment and governance analytics
- Aggregate civilizational-scale coherence observation
- Institutional dashboards under separate validation paths
- Any applied medical path only through separate evidence and regulatory routes
Current program order
External Layer-0
Gold-electrode iodine redox / thiol interface feasibility. This is chemistry-first external feasibility support, not Internal Phase 0.
SICS Internal Phase 0 — G-only
Internal state-gate work focused on the G channel, baseline rule, acquisition discipline, and repeated directional persistence.
Phase 1 — I-only
I-channel reproducibility lock with I₃⁻ target logic and I⁻ calibration discipline.
Phase 2a — Twin Mini-Cell
G and I channel coexistence, cross-talk control, structural separation, and leak testing.
Phase 2b — G+I human pilot
Human pilot under fixed package architecture, repeated state separation, replayable metadata, and locked data discipline.
LOCK 1 / LOCK 2
LOCK 1 asks whether the interface exists. LOCK 2 asks whether the interface matters. SDK release and broader opening belong after these locks.
Who should use this overview
This overview is also a routing page for researchers, engineers, technical contributors, and hiring candidates who need to understand where they fit.
ESL
Electrochemical Systems Lead. Owns physical consistency: electrode behavior, chamber logic, drift handling, acquisition reliability, cleaning discipline, and SOP lock.
EStL
Evidence & Standardization Lead. Owns evidence consistency: metadata, QC, leakage prevention, holdout design, audit trail, and reproducibility package.
PBEE / MDE
Proxy benchmark builders. Build biosignal capture, edge inference, dataset schema, labels, holdout logic, baseline models, and dashboards.
HSOPM
Human-session operations. Manages consent path, participant flow, session timing, metadata completion, and raw-data governance.
GitHub helps builders, but does not create authority
Sal-Meter Kernel GitHub
Core technical gateway for the kernel-first Sal-Meter / CAIS program. Use this for core-track orientation, ESL / EStL routing, Layer-0 context, technical issues, and builder helper materials.
- Core program orientation
- Layer-0 and kernel path
- ESL / EStL candidate route
- PI / engineer helper surface
- Not canonical authority
Proxy Benchmark GitHub
Technical helper repository for schemas, synthetic examples, notebooks, dashboard drafts, issue templates, reproducibility checklists, and builder coordination.
- Metadata schema drafts
- Synthetic / sample data
- Notebooks and dashboard drafts
- No raw human data
- Not Sal-Meter
Canonical Index GitHub
Public DOI routing and repository index helper. It helps users find canonical records, but it does not replace Zenodo or OSF authority.
- DOI routing
- Document family map
- Index helper
- Not research execution
- Not certification surface
