Mental health is a bigger problem than Cancer, Diabetes, and Chronic respiratory disease combined, affecting more than 1 billion people worldwide and costing the global economy £1 trillion each year. In the UK, one in four people will have a mental health issue with 79% feeling stressed or anxious about work, resulting in 70 million workdays lost each year and costing the UK economy £118 billion.NeuroBright is developing the world's first smart, wearable device that uses brain sensor technology (EEG) connected with AI to deliver light and sound programs that reduce anxiety and stress. It's head-worn with LED eyewear in front of the eyes, and using earbuds to synchronise light and sound frequencies with the brain - like being entranced by a flickering flame while listening to calming music to soothe the mind. EEG will provide brainwave data to deliver personalised user-programs that perfectly guide their mind into a desired neurological state ie. relaxation. The project is based on 50 years of scientific studies that show how effective light and sound is for improving mental wellness in a non-invasive, safe way, with no side-effects.NeuroBright's device is app operated and easy to use, helping manage mental wellness without the need for pills, long NHS waiting times, or paying for expensive therapy. NeuroBright's philosophy is to create a product that's widely available and affordable, that delivers fast results with long-term gains and no need to learn or do anything other than sit back and enjoy the experience. NeuroBright will also connect with your digital assistant, so you could simply ask 'Alexa', or 'Siri' for a relaxation session to help you switch off and enjoy your evening.NeuroBright has been in development for over 3 years with the project focus now to take the hardware and app to a commercialised stage. The project will involve setting up workplace trials with global organisations, with the intention of giving their workforce a device they can easily and safely use to help them reduce their stress, anxiety, and manage their mental wellness. This is particularly important in the wake of COVID-19 and the impact it still has on mental health, and the need for a solution for the home-office working model adopted by many businesses. NeuroBright will work with a world-class design partner on this project to ensure our device looks amazing as well as creating a world of healthier minds and happier people!

心理健康是一个比癌症、糖尿病和慢性呼吸道疾病加起来还要大的问题，影响着全球10亿多人，每年给全球经济造成1万亿英镑的损失。在英国，四分之一的人会有心理健康问题，其中79%的人对工作感到压力或焦虑，导致每年损失7000万个工作日，给英国经济造成1180亿英镑的损失。NeuroBright正在开发世界上第一款智能可穿戴设备，该设备使用大脑传感器技术（EEG）与人工智能连接，提供减轻焦虑和压力的灯光和声音程序。它是戴在头上的LED眼镜在眼睛前面，并使用耳塞同步光和声音的频率与大脑-就像被一个闪烁的火焰，而听平静的音乐，以舒缓心灵着迷。脑电图将提供脑波数据，以提供个性化的用户程序，完美地引导他们的头脑进入所需的神经状态，即。放松.该项目是基于50年的科学研究，表明如何有效的光和声音是改善心理健康的非侵入性，安全的方式，没有副作用.NeuroBright的设备是应用程序操作，易于使用，帮助管理心理健康，而不需要药片，漫长的NHS等待时间，或支付昂贵的治疗. NeuroBright的理念是创建一个广泛可用和负担得起的产品，提供快速的结果与长期收益，不需要学习或做任何事情比坐下来享受体验。NeuroBright还将与您的数字助理连接，所以你可以简单地要求“Alexa”，或“Siri”的放松会议，以帮助您关闭和享受您的夜晚。NeuroBright已经开发了3年多的项目重点，现在采取的硬件和应用程序的商业化阶段。该项目将涉及与全球组织建立工作场所试验，旨在为他们的员工提供一种可以轻松安全地使用的设备，以帮助他们减轻压力，焦虑并管理他们的心理健康。这在COVID-19之后及其对心理健康的影响以及许多企业采用的家庭办公室工作模式的解决方案的需求尤为重要。NeuroBright将与世界一流的设计合作伙伴在该项目上合作，确保我们的设备看起来令人惊叹，并创造一个拥有更健康头脑和更快乐人们的世界！
