A week of feedback about my mental state trained my mind to slow down. If such gear catches on, it might tell us more about ourselves than other wearables ever could.
I was sitting in my co-working space, writing an article, when I was first tipped off to brain wearables. A couple feet away from me, a toy helicopter hovered in the air. Two men sat next to it; one of them controlling the helicopter's movement with his mind, and the other offering a running dialogue on how the first man could concentrate more effectively and keep the helicopter in the air longer. I chalked it up to "only in San Francisco" weirdness, and moved on.
