Current obstacles

Consumer-grade signal qualityEEG measured through headphone electrodes experiences more noise and artifact than clinical systems, requiring advanced signal processing to remain reliable.
Variability in electrode contactIndividual differences in head shape, hair density and fit affect the consistency of electrode-skin contact across users.

Physics limits

Spatial resolutionConsumer EEG captures broad patterns of brain activity rather than precise regional data, limiting inference detail about specific cognitive processes.
Signal-to-noise ratioNon-clinical electrode placement and headphone mounting introduce more noise compared to research-grade systems, requiring filtering that may sacrifice detail.

How it works

3 parts

Dry EEG electrode placement

Sensors in headphone ear cups

EEG electrodes mounted in the headphone structure capture brain activity without requiring gel, paste or expert placement.

Signal processing

Real-time pattern analysis

Onboard processing analyzes EEG patterns in real time to detect focus and stress states.

User feedback

Cognitive insights via mobile app

Users receive notifications about their cognitive state, enabling better self-awareness and time management.
