File	Shows
iphone_semantic_3.9M_86.5_and_4.9M_FAST.mp4	iPhone: NEW 512 semantic 3.9M scan — 86.5% R@10 @ 7.5 ms (same fidelity as the Watch claim, ~4.6× faster) and 4.9M FAST — graph tier 82.6% R@10 @ 831 µs (the paper's 94% adds the 1024-bit re-rank)
watch_1m_pq_bench_with_mac_log.mp4	1M-record PQ bench on wrist with the synced Mac log on screen (dual-device proof)
watch_3m_flat_scan_100r10_27ms.mp4	3M-record flat/exhaustive scan: 100% R@10 at ~27 ms on the wrist; memory gate refusing the graph tier honestly (~574 MB needed vs 302 MB avail)
watch_106k_ism_full_sweep.mp4	Full 106K ISM sweep incl. 99.8 s on-watch graph build; HNSW R@10 99.7→100 %, p50 157 µs–1773 µs
watch_106k_ism_sweep_run2.mp4	Second run of the 106K sweep (repetition, numbers reproduce)
watch_table1_identical_1M_demo.mov	TABLE-1 bit-identity check at 1M (load 2.4 s, HNSW ef sweep, RAM recovered)
table1_still_01_menu.png … table1_still_07_ef400_memory_freed.png	Seven still frames from the TABLE-1 run — independent verification of every number in the demo video (load 2.4 s, memory gate OK, graph 0.50 s, ef ladder 501 µs → 1584 µs, RAM recovered)
