AcquisitionThe device records.
In-ear EEG sensing research, session identity, timing, contact conditions and acquisition metadata.
The physical measurement layerSENSING & ANALYSIS
A smaller interface.
Not a smaller question.
An in-ear EEG research foundation, with a contextual intelligence layer around the records it generates.
Conceptual sensing-location illustration. No production design, fit specification or sensor count is implied.
THE IN-EAR EEG FOUNDATION
Brain activity.
An in-ear approach.
MZR’s research describes a discreet in-ear electroencephalogram sensor for brain monitoring and sleep-related research.
The form factor changes the sensing interface. It does not remove the need to evaluate contact, acquisition conditions, signal quality and the intended use.
Read the Berkeley company profile ↗DIFFERENT MODELS. DIFFERENT RESPONSIBILITIES.
Signal processing is not
language reasoning.
A responsible system should distinguish what was measured, what an algorithm estimated, and what a language model wrote.
2
Signal analysisAlgorithms characterize.
Quality screening, exclusions and versioned signal-derived features, evaluated against the intended research task.
Task-specific models and explicit calculations3
Contextual AILanguage models connect.
Authorized summaries, diaries, protocols and review history assembled into cited questions, comparisons and drafts.
Long-context reasoning and retrieval4
Qualified reviewPeople interpret.
Inspect the evidence, resolve uncertainty, approve interpretation and decide what is appropriate to share.
Human authority and accountabilityNo standalone language model is presented as a raw EEG decoder, clinical decision-maker or substitute for device validation.
BEFORE A SUMMARY, AN ACQUISITION QUESTION
Keep the limits
in the record.
Contact & fit context
Retain information about how a recording was acquired. Do not treat an uncertain contact condition as a neurological event.
Time & session identity
Link events to the right recording, interval and analysis version. Approximate diary times remain approximate.
Exclusions & missingness
Keep unreviewable segments visible. A missing signal must not be silently replaced by a generated explanation.
Reference & evaluation
Define the task and evaluation population. Claims of stage accuracy, equivalence or clinical utility require supporting evidence.
AN OVERNIGHT RECORD, IN CONTEXT
Follow a night.
Keep the gaps visible.
Select a moment in an authored recording. See how acquisition records, a diary, and a reviewer question tell different parts of the story.

Capture context
Start with the recording—not a score.
The source window starts at 22:00. A review needs the device session, recording identifier, and analysis version before it can interpret any derived result.
Demonstration only. No patient data, live acquisition, diagnostic inference or model request is used on this website.
THE REVIEWABLE OUTPUT
A record that travels
with its interpretation.
EXAMPLE / REVIEW OBJECTContext that survives
Context that survives
the handoff.
Not a diagnosis. A structured record of what a reviewer can inspect.
