The 'Mendi' brain training headset is a different kind of workout device for consumers that will enable them to keep their neurological state in tiptop shape in a simple, noninvasive manner.
The headset works by being positioned onto the cranium and will go to work using lab-tested technology to harness the measurements being captured from the brain. This data is then used by the system in the accompanying app to control the movements in a game, which will work to flood the prefrontal cortex with blood and oxygen. This is reported to help improve cognitive performance in just five minutes when used two to three times per week.
The 'Mendi' brain training headset is priced at $299 and is likely to be in demand amongst health-conscious consumers seeking out a way to expand on their existing healthy habits.
