mudraka 0.1.1

C++ sEMG engine for Mudra Link raw SNC decoding

mudraka

A transport-agnostic C++17 engine that decodes the Mudra Link wristband's raw surface-EMG (SNC) stream into samples, buffers them, and serves them for real-time use. It is the shared core of three projects (this repo is mudraka only):

• mudraka — this engine.
• mudra-lsl — Python/PyPI wrapper publishing LSL (consumes the wheel).
• mudra-web-viewer — Web Bluetooth live viewer (consumes the WASM/npm build).

One C++ core fans out to two distributions: npm (Emscripten→WASM) and PyPI (nanobind wheel). See docs/ for the full design (start with docs/CONTEXT.md).

Status

Part	State
Native C++ core (decoder, ring, clock, stream, diagnostics)	✅ implemented, tested against real captures (22k+ assertions)
Python binding (nanobind)	✅ builds & verified end-to-end on real fixtures
WASM binding (Embind)	✅ written & CMake-wired (build needs the Emscripten toolchain)
SNC decode	✅ decoded directly, empirically validated for Mudra Link (16-bit, ~834 Hz); no official lib/oracle (see docs/DECODE_VERIFICATION.md)

Target is the retail Mudra Link (~834 Hz / 16-bit — the vendor-confirmed limit). The 2080 Hz figure is a separate product, Mudra Pro, a future target that slots in as a new IDecoder — see docs/CONTEXT.md.

Build & test (native)

cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja -DMUDRAKA_BUILD_TESTS=ON
cmake --build build
ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure      # or: ./build/tests/mudraka_tests

Python wheel

pip install .            # scikit-build-core + nanobind; needs a C++17 compiler

import numpy as np
from mudraka import Stream, Config
s = Stream(Config())
s.feed(notification_bytes, recv_time_s)          # one BLE notification per call
out = np.empty((3, 4096), dtype=np.int32)
written, cursor, lost = s.latest_into(out)       # zero-copy into `out`

WASM (npm)

emcmake cmake -S . -B build-wasm -DMUDRAKA_BUILD_WASM=ON -DMUDRAKA_BUILD_TESTS=OFF
cmake --build build-wasm                         # -> mudraka.js + mudraka.wasm

Recording fixtures

See tools/README.md — capture_session.py records a full BLE session from a real band.
