Did anyone listen in to OpenBCIs TED talk today? What was their demo about?



I haven't seen it yet, but they've been working on a big project in BCI + VR, so I'm assuming that's mostly what it was about.

Our team used to work in metaverse tech, and now we work in BCI (for sleep), so I'm have some experience with both areas.


Learn as much as you can from Dreem - there’s just something about the sleep space that’s a tough nut to crack.

Even with the shocking restful night of sleep with mouth tape (a visceral need fulfilled), I’ll still forget nights and rip it off. That’s much smaller and “more convenient” than a headset.


Yup, we looked closely at Dreem and Philips SmartSleep which both implemented the same core science.

As we see it, they made 3 big mistakes 1) awful ridiculous looking product nobody wanted to be seen in 2) way to expensive to want to try 3) not picking a target market - hey, everyone needs sleep!

We've addressed each of these


Yep - those are the issues - would happily be an alpha/beta or theta customer customer if that’s ever helpful ;) Good luck


The question is, do you fit into one of our target user groups, and in one of our target geographies?
