 - **Interface Layer**: Implements ZMQ and LSL clients for low-latency data streaming. The `ZMQClient` is designed to run asynchronously, ensuring that data acquisition does not block processing or UI updates.
 - **Processing Layer**: Provides a suite of filters and feature extraction tools. This includes the `EMGPreprocessor` for standardized filtering and `ChannelQC` for real-time signal quality monitoring.
