Neurable has launched its first consumer-grade brain-computer interface product, the Neurable One wireless headphones. The device features 12 integrated EEG sensors, with six located in each ear cup, designed to monitor brain activity without the need for conductive gels or specialized equipment.
The system utilizes proprietary algorithms to filter out noise from physical movement, chewing, and active noise cancellation. It operates with 16-bit precision at a 125Hz sampling rate and is supported by over 80 patents. The device tracks eight metrics, including focus, cognitive load, fatigue, and brain battery levels.
Hardware specifications include 40mm beryllium drivers, active noise cancellation, and six microphones. The headphones support Bluetooth 5.2, AAC, and aptX codecs. Battery life is rated at 22 hours for standard audio playback and 12 hours when EEG monitoring is active, with a 15-minute charge providing two hours of use.
The companion application generates real-time feedback, weekly reports, and monthly analytics to track long-term cognitive trends. Neurable emphasizes that the technology is designed for productivity and health monitoring rather than reading thoughts or emotions, and it is not classified as a medical device.
The Neurable One is currently available for pre-order in the United States at a price of $499. The company, founded in 2015 and originating from the University of Michigan, aims to transition brain-monitoring technology from research laboratories into the consumer market.
