-`cl-sdk-cpp` is a zero-overhead 🏎️, bare-metal C/C++ SDK designed specifically for interfacing with Cortical Labs' 59-channel High-Density Microelectrode Arrays (HD-MEA) 🧫. Engineered for AAA game developers 🎮, engine programmers ⚙️, and robotics researchers 🤖, this SDK provides an ultra-low latency bridge between synthetic neural environments and modern game engines 🌉.
+**⚡️ High-Performance C/C++ SDK for Cortical Labs HD-MEA ⚡️**
+
+`cl-sdk-cpp` is a C/C++ SDK designed for interfacing with Cortical Labs' 59-channel High-Density Microelectrode Arrays (HD-MEA). It provides a low-latency network bridge for connecting simulations or engines to the CL1 array.
+
+---
+
+### 🔥 Killer Feature: Asynchronous Telemetry Downsampling Buffer (25kHz -> 90Hz)
+
+Bypass runtime bottlenecks! The SDK utilizes a fully detached threading model and an **Asynchronous Telemetry Downsampling Buffer** that seamlessly scales the raw 25kHz biological sampling rate down to engine-friendly update loops (e.g., 90Hz for VR or 144Hz for high-refresh rendering), without dropping critical high-frequency spike potentials.
+
+---
+
+## 🌐 Live Interactive WebAssembly Demo
+
+Experience the C-core running natively in your browser! We've compiled the high-performance telemetry downsampling engine to WebAssembly. 
+
+[👉 **Click here to view the live 59-channel telemetry demo.**](https://ROE-Defense.github.io/cl-sdk-cpp/)

-The Cortical Labs Python simulator and API are fantastic for data science 📊, but they introduce unacceptable latency in real-time simulations ⏱️. `cl-sdk-cpp` solves this by bypassing the Python Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) entirely 🚀:
+## 🧠 Architecture Highlights
 
-- **Zero GIL Overhead:** Bypasses Python runtime bottlenecks to deliver true deterministic execution 🎯.
-- **Detached Threading Model:** Implements an asynchronous, detached threading architecture for the WebSocket and REST network layers, ensuring that simulation ticks in your game engine are never blocked by network I/O 🕸️.
-- **Asynchronous Telemetry Downsampling for High-Refresh Engines:** Configurable 25kHz aggregation buffer designed for the CL1 Simulator and physical CL1 hardware, capturing an ultra-high frequency biological sampling rate and delivering it seamlessly to high-refresh game loops 🏎️ (e.g., 60fps DOOM 👹, 90fps VR 🥽, 144fps Unreal 🕹️) without dropping critical high-frequency spike potentials ⚡️.
-- **59-Channel HD-MEA Optimization:** Native C-struct serialization directly mapped to the 59-channel architecture of Cortical Labs' hardware, drastically reducing JSON parsing overhead 📦.
-- **Engine-Ready bindings:** Designed to be directly dropped into Unreal Engine, custom C++ engines, or bound seamlessly to other compiled languages via FFI 🔌.
+1. **C Core (`libclsdk`):** A C99 library managing socket connections, threading, and JSON serialization.
+2. **C++ OOP Layer (`CorticalLabs.hpp`):** A C++17 wrapper offering RAII semantics and STL abstractions.
+3. **Unreal Engine 5 Plugin (`CorticalLabs.uplugin`):** Native Blueprint Plugin support mapping the SDK into Blueprint nodes (`GetLatestSpikes`, `SendOpticalFlow`) and C++ modules.
+4. **Nim FFI (`cl_sdk.nim`):** Bindings for Nim integration.
 
-## 👑 Nim Engine Compatibility
+## 🔌 Supported Integration Layers
 
-For developers using the Nim programming language (highly favored in high-performance simulation), `cl-sdk-cpp` provides first-class FFI bindings 🤝. Nim's deterministic memory management pairs perfectly with the C-core, offering Python-like syntax with C-like speed 🐍⚡. See `examples/cl_sdk.nim` for a complete example of connecting to the dish via Nim 🍽️.
+- [x] Native C/C++ ABI
+- [x] Nim FFI
+- [x] Unreal Engine 5 (.uplugin)
+- [ ] Python 3.12 (ctypes / pybind11) [Coming Soon]
 
-## 🏛️ Architecture Highlights
+## 🗺️ Roadmap
 
-1. **C Core (`libclsdk`):** A strictly bounded, `malloc`-minimal C99 library managing raw socket connections, threading, and JSON serialization 🧱.
-2. **C++ OOP Layer (`CorticalLabs.hpp`):** A modern C++17 wrapper offering RAII semantics, exception handling, and `std::vector` abstractions for developers who prefer modern C++ 🏗️.
-3. **Nim FFI (`cl_sdk.nim`):** Zero-cost bindings for Nim integrations 🚀.
+- **Multi-Dish Orchestrator for distributed biology:** Manage and cluster multiple HD-MEA dishes efficiently.
+- **Hardware-Agnostic Encoder Templates:** Out-of-the-box sensor encoding for (LiDAR, Optical Flow, Spectrogram).

-## 🐍 Cortical Labs Python Simulator Interoperability
-
-The `cl-sdk-cpp` JSON serialization logic has been extensively tested against the Cortical Labs Python simulator 🧪. The C-core seamlessly injects generic API keys into the REST/WebSocket payload to ensure drop-in compatibility for researchers migrating from the Python-based workflow to this high-performance C/C++ stack 🔄.
