Editing Neuros Technology (section)

=== Open-source software and hardware ===

A distinguishing feature of the Neuros devices is that they use open-source software and use open-source methods in the development of their devices; open-source software is regularly used as well as the release of documentation surrounding the hardware. This also allows the devices to be adapted for other purposes than the advertised uses, such as including home and auto-security recording.

In addition the company advocates consumers digital rights by making products that assert those rights, allowing unfettered recording from a variety of sources.<ref name="DigitalRights">{{cite web
