Signals within the brain can travel as fast as
268 MPH!

The NeuroSky MindWave headset is the first product available for the consumer market. As a turnkey brainwave sensing headset, it uses the same bio-sensor as the Mattel MindFlex, Star Wars Force Trainer and NeuroSky’s research tool the MindSet. It measures brainwave impulses from the forehead from a position neuroscientists call FP1 with research grade precision. Communication between the headset and PC or Mac is done via a wireless USB plug-in. There are currently over 30 games and educational applications available for download on our AppStore. Included with the MindWave are ten applications bundled within the package: SpeedMath, Meditation Journal, BlinkZone and others. Each of these apps integrate neuroscience in a special way. Speed Math monitors student attention level when learning early-grade arithmetic lessons. MyndPlay is a movie viewing player that uses the mental state of the viewer to determine plot changes in the movie.



The last century of neuroscience research greatly increased our understanding about the brain and the complex energy it emits. Brainwave patterns form faint electrical signals detectable on the scalp. Recording this Electroencephalogram (EEG) has historically required elaborate, intimidating and immovable equipment costing thousands of dollars, limiting the benefits to the research communities. We have innovated with the world’s leading universities such as Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, University of Washington, University of Wollongong, Trinity College and many others to take neuroscience out of the laboratory and into the home.


Our bio-sensor headsets digitize brainwave signals to power the user-interface of games, computers and investigative medical applications. NeuroSky technology accurately measures mental states such as meditation and attention, which are different than actual thoughts. Sensing that a user is in a state of calm is different from sensing that the user likes the color blue. These mental states have powerful capabilities when integrated into video games, education, sports coaching, meditation, etc. For a deeper scientific description of our technology, click below.

We pride ourselves on pioneering mass-market, Brain Computer Interface technology (BCI) that is user-friendly and cost effective. In addition to the current applications using BCI, including products made by Toshiba and BrainAthlete, we actively support opportunities for broader and more socially beneficial applications of our technology. We are honored to be working with the world’s leading brands, universities and minds in investigative studies on ADHD, autism, post-traumatic-stress-disorder, Alzheimer’s, traumatic brain injury, and many others.

The value created by NeuroSky comes from expertise in the melding of science and technology with our creative vision, which is driven by a simple mantra; “what if?” We are experts in the field of Brain-Computer Interface and the first solution that brings the power of the mind to consumers, in ways that have only been dreamed of…until now. Technologies from NeuroSky will be instrumental in the effort to harness, maintain and heal this most vital of human organs.
