iBrain Apps

With regard to the iBrain, Dr. Low sees many applications, including in the transportation industry, to help monitor truckers during their long hauls and perhaps alert them if they feel like nodding off. But right now, the business is mostly directed toward discovering the brainwaves that might signal neurological abnormalities, which is why the pharmaceutical companies are, Dr. Low says, "a match made in heaven."


Although NeuroVigil expects iBrain to be a consumer product, for ongoing self-administered neurological check-up, Dr. Low insists that the results would probably have to be sent to a chosen health professional to interpret the data and explain to the patient any risks.
