The Signal · SNC / wrist EMG

The signal your brain already sends.

Every hand movement begins as an electrical command travelling from your brain to your muscles. We read that neuromuscular signal at the wrist — and turn it into action.

What SNC is

EMG, said plainly.

SNC — Surface Nerve Conductance — is our brand name for our wrist-optimized surface EMG. It's a sensor array that reads the faint electrical activity your muscles produce as your nerves activate them. We chose the wrist because it's where this signal is both rich and socially acceptable to wear a device — and because a decade of work has made us very good at reading it there, reliably, across different people.

How it works

From a thought to an action.

01

The command starts in your brain

and travels down your nerves to your hand.

02

The signal reaches your wrist

as faint electrical currents surface at the skin.

03

Our sensors read it directly

at the source — no camera, no line of sight, no contact with whatever you're controlling.

04

We clean and convert it

on-device — amplified, filtered, and turned into clean digital data, locally, with no cloud required.

05

AI recognizes the gesture

in real time — a tap, a pinch, a swipe, a press, and how hard you're pressing.

06

The action fires

over Bluetooth Low Energy to your device — phone, AR glasses, robot, or AI agent — with low latency and low power.

Why it works where cameras fail
  • Beyond the camera. The wrist is the source; it doesn't matter where your hand goes.
  • Through gloves, in the dark, in low contrast. The signal is electrical, not visual.
  • Pre-motion. The neuromuscular command exists before the hand finishes moving.
  • Force-aware. EMG amplitude is a proxy for how hard you're trying — not just whether you moved.
