iBrain

We're one step closer to being able to read each other's minds. NeuroVigil has developed an extremely portable EEG device that can be used on-the-go.  No need to be strapped down to a bed for this one. It comfortably fits on the head and can be wore at any time for convenient gathering of brain data.

As the website says, "The iBrain™ device, a cutting-edge, single-channel EEG recording tool that is easy to use, comfortable and portable allows for more efficient and user friendly EEG data collection.

The iBrain™ is a miniature electronics box attached to a light and flexible elastic head harness and electrodes that can effortlessly be applied to the head during sleep. The iBrain™ has a rechargeable battery that provides hours of continuous recording, a USB port for simplified data transfer and battery charging to a computer, and provides days of recording storage."

Oh boy. Next up: A convenient implantable chip that does the same thing. Borg collective, here we come!
