## Reading Paths

Status: `wiki navigation source`

Use these paths when entering the docs site with a concrete task.

## Path 1: Understand The Project In 20 Minutes

1. [Research Compass](/start-here/research-compass)
2. [Research Goal](/start-here/research-goal)
3. [SAH-BRI](/framework/sah-bri)
4. [SAH-BRI-Grasp](/framework/sah-bri-grasp)
5. [Research Map](/research-map)
6. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions)

Expected result: you should understand why the project is about high-level EEG intent inside a scene-aware robot system, not direct joint control.

## Path 2: Check Whether A Claim Is Safe

1. [Claim Map](/research-map/claim-map)
2. [Evidence Matrix](/evidence/evidence-matrix)
3. [Synthesis Mainlines](/evidence/synthesis-mainlines)
4. [Relevant paper-card track](/paper-library)
5. [Gap Audit](/evidence/gap-audit)

Expected result: classify the claim as `verified`, `inferred`, or `needs confirmation` before writing it.

## Path 3: Deepen SSVEP Direction

1. [SSVEP Literature](/literature/ssvep)
2. [Paper Library / SSVEP](/paper-library/ssvep)
3. [Synthesis Mainlines](/evidence/synthesis-mainlines): Mainline 2
4. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions): dynamic scene objects
5. [Exp01 SSVEP-YOLO](/experiments/exp01-ssvep-yolo-target-selection)

Expected result: understand the lineage from early SSVER/SSVEP systems through CCA/FBCCA/TRCA, benchmarks, AR/VR, and recent deep-learning trends, then see why dynamic object boxes remain unverified.

## Path 4: Deepen MI Direction

1. [Motor Imagery Literature](/literature/motor-imagery)
2. [Paper Library / Motor Imagery](/paper-library/motor-imagery)
3. [Synthesis Mainlines](/evidence/synthesis-mainlines): Mainline 3
4. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions): MI no-control and false activation
5. [Exp02 MI Mode Control](/experiments/exp02-mi-mode-control)

Expected result: understand why MI is scoped to mode control and intervention instead of dense physical arm control.

## Path 5: Understand The Robot Side

1. [Vision And YOLO Literature](/literature/vision-yolo)
2. [Grasping And Calibration Literature](/literature/grasping-calibration)
3. [System Pipeline](/framework/system-pipeline)
4. [Runtime Interfaces](/framework/runtime-interfaces)
5. [Exp03 Closed-Loop Grasping](/experiments/exp03-closed-loop-grasping)
6. [Exp03 Hand-Eye Calibration](/experiments/exp03-hand-eye-calibration)

Expected result: separate object detection, target binding, grasp-pose generation, calibration, planning, and execution.

## Path 6: Prepare Experiments

1. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions)
2. [Experiment Roadmap](/experiments/roadmap)
3. [Analysis Plan](/experiments)
4. [Exp1-Exp4 protocol pages](/experiments/roadmap)
5. [Pre-Data Freeze](/experiments/pre-data-freeze)
6. [Hardware Inventory](/experiments/hardware-inventory)

Expected result: know which experimental evidence is required before each manuscript claim can be promoted.

## Path 7: Work On The Manuscript

1. [Manuscript Skeleton](/paper/manuscript)
2. [Skeleton Next Steps](/paper/skeleton-next-steps)
3. [Claim Map](/research-map/claim-map)
4. [Introduction](/paper/introduction)
5. [Related Work](/paper/related-work)
6. [Method](/paper/method)
7. [Experiments](/paper/experiments)

Expected result: write only evidence-backed motivation, design rationale, method, and protocol text until result data exist.

## Path 8: Explore Product Directions

1. [Product Directions](/product)
2. [Research Paper Output Suite](/product/research-paper-output-suite)
3. [Embodied AI + BCI](/product/embodied-ai-bci-enterprise)
4. [Rehabilitation Assistive](/product/rehabilitation-assistive-direction)
5. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions)
6. [Claim Map](/research-map/claim-map)

Expected result: keep product narratives useful but separate from verified scientific claims.

## Path 9: Evaluate The Dexterous Arm-Hand Extension

1. [Dexterous Arm-Hand Extension](/research-map/dexterous-arm-hand-extension)
2. [Open Questions](/research-map/open-questions): dexterous arm-hand section
3. [Decision Log](/research-map/decision-log): Decisions 8-9
4. [Grasping And Calibration Literature](/literature/grasping-calibration)
5. [Shared Autonomy Literature](/literature/shared-autonomy)
6. [Hardware Inventory](/experiments/hardware-inventory)
7. [Exp03 Closed-Loop Grasping](/experiments/exp03-closed-loop-grasping)

Expected result: distinguish an integration demo from a research contribution, understand the hardware and evidence gates, and keep the extension from blocking the current baseline.
