Mobile requirements for neurotechnology products

Brain-sensing and biometric devices introduce specific requirements for transport, timing, data integrity, recovery, and validation.

Common technical risks

BLE-connected biosignal applications commonly encounter:

  • Dropped packets during high-throughput EEG streaming
  • BLE connection instability across Android fragmentation
  • No understanding of signal integrity requirements
  • Protocol and domain gaps between mobile and firmware teams
  • Apps that work in the lab but fail in the field

Our approach

Our approach coordinates mobile implementation with firmware behavior and the product's data requirements:

  • Custom BLE stacks for continuous high-throughput data
  • Tested across 50+ Android devices for reliability
  • On-device buffering and artifact rejection built-in
  • Direct collaboration with your hardware team
  • Field-tested recording and recovery workflows

Engineering experience across

Our experience includes neurotechnology, brain-computer interface, and biometric wearable products.

Signals we work with

Our team has hands-on experience integrating and streaming these biosignals over BLE in production mobile apps.

EEG

Electroencephalography: brain electrical activity

fEMG

Facial electromyography: muscle activity

EDA

Electrodermal activity: skin conductance

HR / HRV

Heart rate & heart rate variability

PPG

Photoplethysmography: blood volume

GPS

Geolocation: spatial context for field studies

Selected work

Neurotechnology work, from multi-sensor EEG headsets to biometric research platforms.

Nucleus-Kit: EEG, fEMG, EDA, HR/HRV, GPS and POV camera integration

RE-AK: Nucleus-Kit

A mobile app capturing brain activity (EEG) from the frontal lobe and temporal regions, facial expressions (fEMG), electrodermal activity (EDA), heart rate variability (HR/HRV), GPS, and POV camera, all streamed simultaneously over BLE in real time.

The app manages six concurrent BLE data channels with sequence-aware streaming, on-device buffering for intermittent connectivity, and research-grade data export for neuroscience analysis workflows.

“Thank you for the reliable application you delivered, not a single failure since I've been using it.”

CLEIO: EEG headset companion app

A mobile application for CLEIO's brain-sensing headset, enabling real-time EEG data capture and visualization. Built for researchers and clinicians who need reliable, continuous neural data streaming from wearable devices.

The app handles automatic device discovery and pairing, live signal quality indicators, session recording with timestamped markers, and cloud sync for multi-site research collaboration.

The interface was designed to make device setup, recording status, and signal quality legible to clinical and research users.

“…a dependable, communicative, and professional consultant…integrated smoothly into the project team, ramped up on the project context efficiently, and consistently delivered against the cadence set by the client.”

Real-time signal streaming

High-throughput data pipelines with sequence verification, gap detection, and measured support for 250 Hz and higher sample rates.

On-device processing

Signal filtering, artifact rejection, feature extraction, and quality metrics computed locally for immediate feedback without cloud latency.

Offline-first architecture

Recording without network connectivity, local persistence, background synchronization, and explicit detection and reporting of data gaps.

Research-grade data export

Export in EDF+, CSV, and custom binary formats. Timestamped event markers, session metadata, and compatibility with MATLAB and Python.

Cross-device compatibility

Extensive testing across Android fragmentation (50+ devices) and iOS versions. BLE stack workarounds for known chipset-specific bugs.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with early-stage hardware that's still in development?

Yes. We often start when firmware is still being iterated on. We'll work directly with your embedded team, test against dev boards, and adapt as your hardware stabilizes. Early engagement actually reduces risk.

What platforms do you develop for?

Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin). For BLE-heavy applications, we strongly recommend native over cross-platform because the BLE stacks differ significantly between platforms and native gives us full control over connection behavior.

How do you handle Android BLE fragmentation?

We maintain a tested device matrix and have workarounds for known chipset-specific issues (Qualcomm, MediaTek, Samsung Exynos). We test on physical devices and have automated BLE integration tests.

Can you work with our existing firmware team?

That's how we prefer to work. We'll join your communication channels, participate in hardware/firmware reviews, and coordinate protocol changes directly with your embedded engineers.

What does "zero data loss" actually mean?

We design packet sequence verification, local buffering, and session recovery around each product's recording protocol. Reliability is verified per device and workflow rather than claimed as one universal zero-loss number.

How long does a typical project take?

It depends on sensor complexity and feature scope, but a typical single-device BLE companion app takes 3-5 months from kickoff to App Store submission. Multi-sensor platforms like Nucleus-Kit are longer.
