The cognitive interaction layer
ONIOKO develops a cognitive interaction layer between humans, memory, perception, and intelligent technology.
Four layers. Two of them are ONIOKO’s own model families: OPM for perception, OMM for memory. The other two turn them into a conversation.
Open a layer: first in plain words, then the models behind it.
Signal map: every signal we measure →In plain words
It reads what a moment is actually made of. In the face, the voice, the body. As signal, never as a label.
It doesn’t guess what you feel. It measures how you show up: the pull of a mouth, a drop in pitch, a response that lands a beat slower than it used to. As signal, never as a label. The image and the sound are thrown away the instant they’re measured. What’s kept is the trace, never the recording.
A stroke doesn’t announce itself. Neither does the slow slide back into a depression someone climbed out of two years ago. Both leave the same early trace: a face that moves a little less on one side, a voice that loses a fraction of its melody, a beat of hesitation that wasn’t there before.
On any single day, that trace is nothing. Everyone has an off morning. A doctor would see nothing, because a doctor sees you today, next to everyone else, not next to you last month. The change only becomes visible when you have a thousand ordinary days to measure it against. That’s what perception alone misses, and it’s the whole reason perception and memory only work together.
The models behind it
OPMObservational Perception Models
- CYGNUSextracts the signals: face, voice, posture, as numbers, never as emotion labels
- ORACLEfinds patterns within one session, each with a confidence value
- LUCIDputs them into plain, careful language: “could”, never “is”
- TRACEfollows them across sessions and builds your personal baseline
Also here: Human Signal Intelligence, contactless biosignal patterns. Not a medical diagnosis.
Every signal, its source and where it lands: the signal map →In plain words
It holds who you are as it accumulates, so a person is only ever measured against themselves.
One session says almost nothing. Maybe you were tired. Maybe the mic was bad. Maybe that’s just you. Across many sessions, a corridor forms: your normal. Not the normal of people your age. Yours. And once that corridor is sharp, a real change stands out that would have been invisible on day one.
Every line in that memory keeps its source: said, confirmed, interpreted, hypothesis, changed. The instrument below shows how that reads years later.
The models behind it
OMMObservational Memory Models
- LIMOthe short window: everything current, forgotten after 30 minutes
- MOMOthe memory: what was said and observed, kept with its source
- CANONyour personal normal: the baseline you are compared with, never a population
The corridor above is CANON. It is built from your own sessions, and from nothing else.
In plain words
It connects what perception measured and memory kept with the situation you are in now. Years of decisions, patterns, and expertise become something you can ask.
It doesn’t decide for you. It puts the right memories, with their sources, next to the question you are asking, so you can think further than one head can hold. That is the extended in extended cognition.
The models behind it
Runs on both familiesOPM measures, OMM keeps, cognition connects
No third model family on this page. Cognition is the reasoning over what the other two produce, always with the sources attached.
In plain words
This is the part you meet. An Extended Avatar has a face, a voice, and timing: it looks at you, hears you, and answers a beat after you finish. It carries the continuity: it remembers last time.
Everything before this layer is technology. This is what it looks like when it is human.
Where you meet it
Extended Avatarsin WhatsAnima
One head across four channels: chat, voice message, video message, and video call. A text message is enough for it to stay current with you.

Signal map · every signal we measure
180 signals. 7 layers. 4 consent contexts. 0 hidden.
Every line is one signal, from its source through perception (OPM) into memory (OMM). Warm colours are measured on the body, cool ones aren’t. Nothing on the map is a mood label.
