The Mindwave Mobile Brainwave Headset is a $130 EEG headset that’s compatible with iOS devices, Android phones, and, yes, even desktop computers.

The maps visualise where the foci of knowledge – and, thus, the forces of innovation and economic growth – are located. Thanks to this scientific visualisation the most important factors involved can be grasped at a glance. It also provides evidence of a paradigm shift towards a new visual language in the domain of sciences..."
