This high-tech eyewear is designed to train your brain and enhance focus and memory. The neurofeedback glasses use sensors as well as programs developed by NASA. Narbis is currently fundraising on crowdfunding platform Kickstarter.
To use the high-tech eyewear, you put them on and strap a bluetooth armband on. There are three sensors: one at the end of each arm and one that goes over your head. Small gold pins connect to your skin and monitor brain activity. Once the bluetooth amplifier is turned on, you can start training your brain via the Narbis app. The smartphone application has five different training programs to measure your attention levels in different areas of brain performance.
Signals are sent from the brainwave-measuring sensors to the glasses. They're electrochromic, which means the lenses get dark when your attention wanders and clear when you're more aware.
