Newert SDK Use Cases
Compare app-based measurement, post-session CSV analysis, and real-time integration to choose the SDK approach that fits your goal.
Product overview
What does it measure and what do you get?
CSV
Analyze after measurement
Move saved raw or biomarker data into an existing analysis tool.
SDK
Real-time custom integration
Build device discovery, connection, and stream reception into your own app or service.
Designed for these workflows
Custom research UI developers
Control study tasks and PPG or IMU in one research program.
Service integration teams
Include device connection and measurement inside an existing app or operating system.
Automated analysis pipelines
Move measurements automatically into storage, preprocessing, and analysis code.
How to use
Choose the right approach in four steps
The required development scope differs between an existing measurement screen and integration into your own service.
Before you start · Define the use case in four parts
Users and screens
Define who connects the device, starts measurement, and views which results.
Signals and metrics
Choose PPG, nine-axis IMU, events, processed waveform, or calculated biomarkers.
OS and technology
Confirm the target, such as Flutter on Android or iOS or Python on Windows or Linux.
Storage and analysis flow
Define live display, local CSV, server transfer, Datahub, and the next processing stage.
- STEP 1
Check whether an existing app is enough
Use EmoConnect PPG&Motion for live signal and session CSV, or Newert Health for metrics and group dashboards, before choosing custom development.
- Can the existing UI support operations?
- Can the app save the required file?
- Is a separate user interface required?
- STEP 2
Use CSV for post-session analysis
If real-time control is unnecessary and the next step is Excel, Python, or MATLAB, begin with the raw or biomarker CSV.
- Confirm fields and units
- Separate raw and calculated metrics
- Define file transfer and retention
- STEP 3
Choose the SDK for real-time integration
Choose the SDK for your target operating system when your program must control discovery, connection, stream reception, and measurement end.
- Confirm OS and development environment
- Define live UI, event, and storage requirements
- Confirm offline and network conditions
Select the SDK and development environment for the target operating system. - STEP 4
Decide PRO and data-management scope
Review PRO when you need a Smart Noise Filtering waveform or advanced metrics, and consider Datahub when multiple study files and contexts need structured management.
- Can you analyze raw signals yourself?
- Do you need processed waveform or advanced metrics?
- Will data move to Datahub or your own server?

Review a sample file first
Check the file structure, columns, and units before measuring so that you can prepare your analysis pipeline in advance.
SDK integration-planning CSV sample
Use this example to define the host environment, signal scope, storage, and analysis flow for an SDK adoption inquiry or internal development plan.
Included fields
use_case · host_environment · signal_scope · data_delivery · storage_target · analysis_target · required_guide
This is a planning reference, not an SDK configuration or automatic-import file. Confirm supported operating systems, signals, and APIs in the purchased product README and contract.

Research measurement UI
Combine study tasks, signal reception, and events in one program.
Field operations app
Control connection and measurement in your own mobile UI.
Raw Data storage
Store PPG and IMU by session and participant.
Real-time analysis
Pass received data to preprocessing, visualization, or custom algorithms.
Platform connection
Continue to your own server, Datahub, or another data-management stage.
Example SDK use-case scope
Treat each row as one use case and connect its runtime environment to the downstream analysis target.
| use_case | host_environment | signal_scope | data_delivery | storage_target | analysis_target | required_guide |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Live research dashboard | Windows | PPG + IMU | SDK stream | Session CSV | Custom visualization | SDK development |
| Mobile field study | Android | PPG + IMU | SDK stream | Local encrypted storage | Offline analysis | SDK development |
| Algorithm validation | Linux | PPG + IMU | SDK stream | Research data pipeline | Python or MATLAB | SDK development |

Frequently asked questions
Do I need the SDK if I only analyze a CSV?
If you do not need real-time control and an existing app can save the required file, you can begin with CSV without an SDK.
Does the SDK include a finished application screen?
No. It provides development components for connection and data reception. Build your own UI or use an existing Newert app.
Can I use identical code on every operating system?
The workflow is shared, but packages and environments differ. Use the README and samples supplied with the purchased version for exact functions and initialization.
Is Datahub mandatory?
No. Choose it when files and study context need platform management. If you use your own storage, your team must design retention, security, and search.
