Wearable technology has undergone a turbulent journey, with the wearables market experiencing a meteoric rise in hype, accompanied by billions of dollars of funding, tens of thousands of new patents filed, thousands of new companies, and hundreds of billions of dollars of new revenue generated. We sees the significant success that wearable technology products have seen in the last decade, with a total market worth over US$81bn in 2022, having now tripled in terms of annual revenue since 2014. Key growth areas over the past 10 years include BCI headsets, smartwatches, true wireless stereo headphones, and continuous glucose monitoring skin patches among others.
Key trends assessed in the report include: The smart BCI devices, smartwatch market continues to increase its focus on wellness and healthcare, with several players progressing towards medical metrics such as blood pressure in the not-so-distant future. While true wires stereo headphones capture 55% of the hearables market, recent approval for over-the-counter hearing aid products in 2022 presents an opportunity for market expansion. Ongoing investment into the development of AR hardware now sees early product types commercialized, with many targeting the assistive technology market as a precursor to a bigger play for a chunk of the metaverse market. Healthcare and wellness continue to be major markets for electronic skin patches, with the COVID-19 pandemic driving up interest for applications such as decentralized clinical trials Smart clothing, made from e-textiles, is a compelling form factor for biometric monitoring, but faces increasing competition in cardiac monitoring from smartwatches and electronic skin patches

The artificial intelligence (AI) based technique has become one of the most popular and effective approaches in scientific studies on brain cognition. In recent years, many studies have been devoted to developing various data-driven AI models explaining the psychology from brain function or investigating the mind impact on brain development
In this digital era, modern devices provide convenient ways to collect multi-modal multi-view multi-scale datasets from human learning, such as brain imaging, brain-machine interface and human-machine system to exploring brain cognition and mind. Researchers in psychology adopt AI models to find evidence from brain activities for learning behaviors, e.g., developing neural classifiers. Researchers in neuroscience use AI models to analyze brain development for brain function discovery.
Watch VideoWe are on the mission to enable everyday brain tracking, and unlock the hidden potentials of the human brain. We developed a family of products starting with pure simple eeg systems to professional and high-density systems and finally innovative solutions that fit into real life situations. Making all our products in house, we employ the latest technologies to develop the most advanced software and hardware solutions for brain research and monitoring. With each new product, we make EEG closer to real life – we enable mobile, outdoor, and social experiments, and work on further advancement of the brain recording technology with the ultimate goal to make it a part of our everyday
At InteraXon, we develop engaging experiences using brainwave sensing technology. Our mission is to enable you to live a happier, healthier and more connected life with leading brainwave technologies.

NEXT GENERATION EEG. Muse is a neurofeedback-based app and wireless headset that offers “technology enhanced meditation” for the user through immediate audio feedback about their brain state. It is intended to develop sustained undistracted attention and promote calmness and relaxation
Seven electroencephalogram (EEG) headset sensors detect and measure the brain’s electrical activity during meditation and the app deciphers the data. If the sensors detect calmness, a user will hear calm nature sounds; if the sensors detect restlessness, a user will hear stormy weather as encouragement to return to a calmer, more focused frame of mind.
