## Technical Achievements

### 1. World-First Innovations

**Δ_human Plugin — Human-Aware Tier Escalation:**
- First-ever occupancy-based dynamic tier escalation for consumer robots
- Architecture: Fetch occupancy state → Count humans → Classify resource → Escalate tier → Explain
- On-device presence detection only (no biometric identification)
- Transparent escalation in audit log

**FHIR Consent as Capability Tokens:**
- Standard FHIR R5 Consent resource = SINT capability token
- Cryptographic health data consent enforcement (Ed25519)
- Time-bounded, scoped, revocable
- Natural-language explanation generation

**Tiered Data Egress (Health):**
- Tier 0: Raw waveform (on-device only)
- Tier 1: Aggregates (daily averages, cloud)
- Tier 2: Third-party access (requires caregiver delegation for MEDICAL data)

**Caregiver Delegation Tokens:**
- Time-bounded health access with relationship-based scoping
- Sensitivity ceiling enforcement
- Emergency override for T3 actions
- Renewal tracking + cryptographic revocation

### 2. Cross-Vendor Governance

**Matter + SINT = No Vendor Lock-In:**
- Same capability token works across Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa
- User switches ecosystems → governance layer moves with them
- First open protocol for AI smart home governance

**Architecture Principle: Civil Liberties as Load-Bearing**
- Biometric prohibitions enforced at bridge level (not configuration)
- On-device processing mandatory (not optional)
- User-owned keys hardcoded (not provider-owned)
- Result: Cannot fork SINT and remove privacy without breaking core protocol

### 3. Regulatory Moat

**Comprehensive Compliance Coverage:**

| Framework | Coverage | Implementation |
|---|---|---|
| **EU AI Act Article 5** | ✅ Complete | No biometric ID (camera T0 read-only) |
| **EU AI Act Article 14** | ✅ Complete | Human oversight (T2/T3 approval queues) |
| **GDPR Article 5** | ✅ Complete | Data minimization (Δ_human presence only) |
| **GDPR Article 6** | ✅ Complete | Lawful basis (FHIRConsent.purposeOfUse) |
| **GDPR Article 15** | ✅ Complete | Right to access (Evidence Ledger export) |
| **GDPR Article 25** | ✅ Complete | Privacy by design (on-device, user keys) |
| **HIPAA Administrative** | ✅ Complete | Access control + audit (tokens + ledger) |
| **HIPAA Physical** | ✅ Complete | Device controls (on-device processing) |
| **HIPAA Technical** | ✅ Complete | Encryption (user-owned keys) |
| **NIST AI RMF Govern** | ✅ Complete | Assign roles (capability tokens) |
| **NIST AI RMF Measure** | ✅ Complete | Track risks (Evidence Ledger + Δ_human) |
| **ISO 13482** | ✅ Complete | Robot safety (Δ_human escalation) |
| **Matter Spec** | ✅ Complete | Device attestation (compatible) |

**Sales Pitch:**
> "Deploy SINT → instantly HIPAA-aligned, EU AI Act-compliant, NIST AI RMF-conformant"

## Strategic Impact

### Short-Term (Q2-Q3 2026)
- ✅ **Phase 1 PRODUCTION READY**: Consumer smart home governance deployable today
- 🟡 **Phase 2 NEARLY COMPLETE**: 67% (Matter bridge + Δ_human operational, MQTT QoS TODO)
- 🟡 **Phase 5 NEARLY COMPLETE**: 67% (FHIR + HealthKit + Caregiver delegation, Differential Privacy TODO)

### Medium-Term (Q4 2026 - Q2 2027)
- **bridge-hri** unlocks multimodal consent (voice, gesture, gaze) → Phase 4 complete
- **bridge-city** unlocks smart city deployments (FIWARE/NGSI-LD) → Phase 6 complete
- **Differential Privacy Ledger** completes Phase 5 health fabric

### Long-Term (2027-2029)
- **SINT Protocol** becomes de facto standard for physical AI governance
- **Regulatory moat** prevents competitive forks (civil liberties baked into architecture)
- **Open protocol** wins against proprietary silos (interoperability advantage)
