BioStream constitutes an integrated infrastructure for biometric research using affordable wearable devices. It enables researchers to collect and analyze physiological data without requiring specialized equipment, combining a data acquisition application (SmartBioStream) with a data management platform (ServerBioStream).

SmartBioStream is a Wear OS application that enables the collection of biometric data through affordable, user-friendly smartwatches. In addition, we provide a web platform, ServerBioStream, to receive, store, and download the data sent by the smartwatches. The combination of both applications supports conducting biometric studies without needing expensive and sophisticated research-oriented devices. SmartBioStream can also transmit biometrics to other systems for their analysis, such as educational and workplace platforms. The flexibility, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness of both applications make them valuable tools for democratizing biometric data collection and analysis.

-**Options**. This functionality enables users to adjust settings related to communication with the server. These settings should be set by researchers or administrators, not by the end-users. This configuration is stored on the smartwatch and remains saved even if the application is closed. The views of this functionality enable the selection of the server's IP address, the port, the protocol (HTTP or HTTPS), whether the application should verify the HTTPS certificate, and the authentication method (username and password or identifier).
