BodyWave Technology

BodyWave technology from Freer Logic reads and reacts to brainwaves through
the extremities of the body. The sports armband device collects interactive
feedback for training purposes.

BodyWave reads brain activity through the human body via a uniquely
innovative arm band that houses brainwave sensors that attach to the arm or
wrist. BodyWave's patent pending design monitors the brain's physiologic
signal through the body. Dry sensors acquire brain signal and transfer it
wirelessly to a mobile device or PC. When BodyWave is used with Freer Logic's
3D computer simulations, it can teach stress control, increase attention, and
facilitate peak mental performance.

[I really think they use EMG signals rather than EEG signals - DJ]

Unique Logic and Technology (UL&T), uses BodyWave technology in their Play
Attention product which is advertised to increase student attention, teach
cognitive skills, and improve behavior.
