About Smart Banner Hub — Three Breakthrough Pillars

Smart Banner Hub is a technology company pioneering mathematical creativity, education, and quantum-safe authentication. We built two breakthrough engines: Clustrolin™, the world's first DBSCAN Creative Engine — powering six creative studios and StrokeSense™ Academy, the world's first DBSCAN-powered learning platform for handwriting education; and Clustrauth™, the first consumer-accessible post-quantum authentication engine. Create. Learn. Secure. — three pillars, two engines, one platform. Founded by five-degree engineer Ashwin Spencer, we don't iterate on existing ideas — we invent categories.

How Clustrolin™ Works

Your content (text, drawing, or photo) is converted into point coordinates. Clustrolin™ applies DBSCAN clustering to discover mathematical patterns, then animates the result point-by-point or cluster-by-cluster. Each color represents a unique cluster discovered by the algorithm.

StrokeSense Academy — DBSCAN-Powered Education

StrokeSense Academy is the world's first learning management system powered by DBSCAN technology for handwriting education. Unlike passive video demonstrations, Academy transforms stroke data into interactive lessons where students actively practice and receive instant, mathematically-precise feedback.

Universal Script Support

Every writing system on Earth follows the same principle: strokes in sequence. StrokeSense Academy works with Latin, Chinese hanzi, Japanese hiragana and kanji, Korean hangul, Arabic script, Hindi Devanagari, Hebrew, Thai, and any other stroke-based writing system. The mathematics work universally.

For Teachers & Therapists

  • Record custom stroke references directly
  • Organize into Courses, Modules, Lessons
  • Adjustable tolerance settings
  • Real-time analytics dashboard
  • Shareable enrollment codes
  • Set your own course prices
  • 70% revenue share

For Students & Learners

  • Ghost path overlay shows target stroke
  • Moving guide dot for navigation
  • Instant scoring on every stroke
  • Progress tracking across courses
  • Adaptive difficulty levels
  • Certificates upon completion

Real-Time Scoring Engine

Three core metrics determine the score:

  • Path Accuracy — How closely you follow the reference
  • Direction — Proper direction for each stroke
  • Smoothness — Fluidity and steadiness of the stroke
  • Stroke Order — Correct sequence (free practice mode)

Deterministic, explainable scoring — no black-box AI.

Clustrauth™ — Post-Quantum Authentication Engine

Clustrauth™ is the first direct-to-consumer quantum-safe authentication engine. While enterprise solutions for post-quantum cryptography exist behind six-figure contracts and complex API integrations, Clustrauth™ makes NIST-approved algorithms accessible through a simple checkout button.

Why Post-Quantum Matters Now

A 30-year mortgage signed in 2025 will still be referenced in 2055 — when quantum computers will have rendered today's cryptography obsolete. We solve this now, not later.

Quantum Auth Forge™

World's first consumer-accessible quantum-safe document authentication platform.

  • Authenticate any document for $24.99
  • NIST FIPS 204 ML-DSA signatures
  • Ed25519 classical signatures (hybrid)
  • SHA3-256 quantum-resistant hashing
  • Certificate of Authenticity with unique ID
  • Free public verification
  • All file types up to 50MB

Technical Specifications

Post-Quantum Signatures

ML-DSA (CRYSTALS-Dilithium) — NIST FIPS 204. Selected to protect U.S. federal systems against quantum threats.

Classical Signatures

Ed25519 — Elliptic Curve Cryptography. Proven security for defense in depth.

Document Hashing

SHA3-256 — Quantum-resistant hashing algorithm.

Hybrid Approach

Dual-signature system combining classical and post-quantum for maximum security.

Detection, Not Prevention

Unlike DRM systems that attempt to prevent document editing, Clustrauth™ provides cryptographic detection. If an authenticated document is altered in any way — even a single byte — verification fails. It is computationally infeasible to alter the document without detection.
