Ybrain is a wearable device that targets brain regions with electrical signals. Two sensors are embedded in the front of a headband, providing stimulation for 30 minutes per day, 5 days per week, at home. It is intended for both Alzheimer’s and Mild Cognitive Impairment patients. The company has built a prototype and will begin clinical trials in Korea in July, 2014. The target launch date is early 2015.
Soterix Medical and Halo Neuroscience are developing similar transcranial direct stimulation/neuromodulation devices.
