The Consumers Electronics Show (CES) 2020 was held earlier this month in Las Vegas. Of the ~4,400 exhibiting companies, the "Digital Health" category had 573 exhibitors. Of these, I found 9 companies utilizing EEG technology.
Besides the usual sleep aid applications, there are still a lot of focus/meditation/relaxation apps. Mental health screeners seem to be a new trend. Other than the visual cortex monitor (NextMind), BCI devices for use as video game controllers have cooled down.
Here's a quick summary, including the application categories they fall into.
