To examine the intricate pathways of the brain and learn the valuable information provided by this organ that is largely unknown to the science, many start-ups are using the technology.
NextSense, company born from projects Google XAlpha or Monosha, it aspires to enter the brain through the ears. How? It is in full development headphones capable of recording electrical signals from the brain to study sleep and neurological status, among a large amount of neural data.
The aim of the innovative device is record electroencephalogram (EEG) in a much more comfortable and simple way, which will greatly facilitate the study of the brain, since it will not require fixing the electrodes on the patient’s scalp.
