And the result of it is a sort of a Garmin watch for meditators?

  • With the Garmin watch, Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org was always angry that it is not possible to use it for scientific studies.
  • And when it finally was possible, he found out by himself that smartwatches like the Garmin watch are basically not suitable for scientific studies?

And now history reteating with the Muse headband?

  • from the beginning, the Muse headband was not a scientific tool.
  • then the Mind Monitor came, which is not a scientific tool as well
  • Then Arnaud Delorme attached the Muse headband over the Muse SDK to Lab Streaming Layer:

  • But immediately after that, the SDK was pulled from the market, and not offered anymore to private persons.
  • To see how much money can be made out of professionals like Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org
  • But we suppose that the result of it is that it is not possible.
  • And the second result is that the Muse headband is basically not suitable for scientific studies, similar to smartwatches.
  • The Muse headband is only suitable for business scientists to make money out of it
  • But the professionals already retreated from it, and the Muse headband sellers need now to find hobbists to sell it to those.
