Sal-Meter System Overview v1.1

This document provides a research-stage, CAIS-aligned system overview of the Sal-Meter measurement architecture. It is a public technical helper / structural snapshot rewritten to match the current internal execution order, public claims boundary, and two-lead governance structure. Status: non-canonical system overview. Scope: research-stage, non-diagnostic, non-therapeutic. Current public execution order: External Layer-0 → SICS Internal Phase 0 (G-only) → Phase 1 (I-only) → Phase 2a (Twin Mini-Cell) → Phase 2b (G+I human pilot) → LOCK 1 / LOCK 2 review → SDK release and broader opening. This document does not grant certification, redefine canonical terms, open the competition prematurely, or support diagnostic or therapeutic claims. Until independent validation is complete, experimental builds should be described as experimental CAIS-based prototypes or research-stage measurement systems rather than certified or validated Sal-Meters. The current public leadership frame is: ESL (Electrochemical Systems Lead) EStL (Evidence & Standardization Lead) This replaces older public-facing descriptions that foregrounded CMA + aptamer coordinator as the top-level architecture. Specialized roles may still exist internally, but public system documents should now reflect the ESL / EStL leadership frame. Public-facing framing that is appropriate at this stage includes: – research-stage consciousness-state measurement architecture – CAIS-aligned molecular–electrochemical signal interface program – non-invasive observational or cartridge-based measurement direction – wellness and self-observation oriented translation layer, where appropriate – open-science / non-exclusive standardization pathway Canonical authority remains fixed only in DOI-registered records on Zenodo and OSF. If helper documents and canonical documents diverge, the canonical DOI layer controls. Suggested citation: Salpida Institute of Consciousness Science (SICS). Sal-Meter System Overview v1.1.
