Most of the EEG headband type devices have been reduced in real world application to New Age 'mindfulness' and meditation garbage.

Bold: that's a real shame, because there's a lot more potential in this technology than just that...

The trouble with EEG devices (what most wearables have used til now) is how lossy and comparatively high latency the signal is - not to mention the lack of feedback you get. As such, it struggles with speed, accuracy, and ease of use which have historically hamstrung its real world applications. Still, progress is being made in this space all the same and it could theoretically be combined with other techs like TMS. Neurable is one to watch in this space.
