AxonOS · the ecosystem

The project behind the radar

Its repositories, the people building them, and how they connect — live from public GitHub, every fact source-backed.

A real-time Rust microkernel for safety-critical BCI. Deterministic EDF scheduling · Zero-copy signal path · Hardware-gated stimulation interlock.

Reach × Engagement quadrant

The most relevant projects the radar surfaces, placed by two raw GitHub signals. The vertical axis is reach (stars, log scale); the horizontal axis is engagement — forks per star, i.e. how much the community builds on a project rather than just watching it.

Evidence

Why each project is here

Every score below is produced by axonos-brs, an open crate, from the evidence shown beside it. Both are published, so any row here can be recomputed from public data — and a disagreement is a bug report this project cannot argue with.

How this is made

Methodology & honesty

Discovery. A zero-dependency Python pipeline queries the public GitHub API across a curated set of neurotech topics and keywords, de-duplicates, and relevance-filters every candidate before it appears here.

Evidence tiers. Each repository is graded L3–L0 by how strongly it signals a genuine BCI focus, with weak or adjacent matches flagged for review rather than hidden.

Scoring. A single published multi-signal formula — log-scaled stars and recency, plus enriched terms for release downloads, contributors and commit activity — applied identically to every project. AxonOS is ranked like everyone else and is never boosted.

Enriched signals. Per repository the pipeline additionally fetches real GitHub data: contributor counts (team size), release-asset download totals (adoption), a 52-week commit-activity histogram (maintenance) and declared funding channels (FUNDING.yml). GitHub exposes repository page views only to a repo’s own owners, so views are deliberately not shown rather than approximated.

Money & domicile. Capital raised and legal domicile are not in GitHub; when shown they come only from a hand-curated, source-cited overrides file and are labelled as such. Nothing is estimated.

The quadrant. Axes are raw GitHub metrics (stars; forks per star), min-max normalised across the projects shown. It is a descriptive map, not a vision or quality judgement.

Refresh. The whole field is re-scanned every three hours; the last good snapshot is kept if a scan partially fails, so the map never goes blank.

Coverage. This scan read 3,324 repositories across 33 topics. 554,742 more matched a query and could not be read: GitHub returns at most a thousand results per search and does not page beyond that. Those repositories exist and this map has not seen them, which is a limit of the method rather than of the field.

Honesty. Every number here is a real public signal. Inclusion is discovery, not endorsement, and nothing is fabricated from data the pipeline does not actually collect.

This report is a community discovery aid compiled from public GitHub metadata. Presence here does not imply endorsement, security, or clinical validation of any project. Figures are point-in-time signals and will change as the field moves.
