Did you know that the human mind gets distracted every 11 minutes at work? It takes not less than 23 minutes to get back to what it was doing. How do we deal with this?
That extra bit of concentration… the focus that keeps us away from all distractions…. Seems like an unreachable goal isn’t it? Not anymore! There is something that can help us achieve all this with great ease.

Mindset with EEG Sensors
It is not a magic device, but a brand new product backed by scientific evidence. It performs in such a way that you would have improved your levels of concentration without even realizing it. The technique Mindset uses to help you in your day is the well known electroencephalography or EEG sensors.
Monitors Human Brain
Through this it not only monitors concentration, but also keeps a check on your anxiety levels, emotional status and other related changes that occur in the human brain. When you start using the Mindset, it tracks your concentration throughout the day and sends you an alert when it finds that you are distracted. With regular and long term usage of this device, your mind learns to concentrate deeply for longer number of hours and you enjoy uninterrupted work experience.
Smart Headphone understand your Mindset
Let us understand the look and the make of the unique device. The work headphones as they are called are hassle free because they are wireless and connect to your phone or computer via Bluetooth. This simplifies its usage making it a desirable thing.
But what happens when you run out of battery? Nothing can interrupt your listening experience when you have an Aux cable that you can plug in.
Active Noise Cancelling
It is important to ensure that you can hear nothing but what you want to if you need to focus. Mindset does exactly that! It eliminates all the sounds that can distract you while you are trying hard to concentrate on something very important. It carefully listens to noise around you and prevents it from reaching you.
Obviously this means that you can hear things with greater clarity. To ensure this further, the makers of Mindset have joined hands with Onkyo, pioneers, which allows you to listen to every detail of your content. You will never miss anything that’s important to you. The additional features include the gyroscopic hinge that makes the cups be gentle to your head and the microfiber that is lighter than the regular leather used for these purposes. The Mindset is a flexible device that distributes its weight evenly on your head.
Power of neurofeedback
You can see the changes in your concentration levels with the neurofeedback feature of the Mindset. It helps you see how much you have improved and what you need to work on.
