Abstract
We present the design of a standalone optical probe integrated with a Time-Gated Single Photon Detection module and Pulsed Light Emission unit. The detection module is capable of detecting photons in specific time windows, thus enabling the measurement of very faint optical signals. The pulse repetition frequency extends up to 100 MHz with a gate-ON time range up to 35ns. The module is user-configurable via a PC interface and can be integrated in any optical setup. The pulsed light emission unit uses a 50 GHz GaAs Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser diode. Experimental characterization was conducted for all the building blocks of the module to ensure its proper functioning. The module was also employed in a real-life application, heart rate monitoring by illuminating the index finger of a volunteer. The novelty of the proposed miniaturized optode lies in the development of a simplified interface for portable Brain-computer interfaces which can be effectively used in applications such as Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and functional brain imaging.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
