Neuroscience company Atlas has launched its first wearable, the Atlas 1.0 Pioneer Edition, a non-invasive brain pattern monitor designed to track stress, energy, and focus. This device, which sits behind the ear, feeds data on attention span and neural workload to users, enabling them to understand and manage their mental performance.
The initial batch of $499 pre-order devices, available in the US, sold out within days, indicating strong market interest. Atlas states the wearable's performance is backed by six years of data collection and testing, reportedly outperforming expensive research-grade equipment.
Users can gain insights into their brain activity, such as identifying activities that increase stress or reduce focus, allowing for informed lifestyle adjustments. The accompanying app is currently iOS-only, and a $29.99 monthly subscription is required alongside the device's upfront cost. Battery life is approximately two days.
