Relax. Think. Learn.
REVAI is developing a software application and AI/ML-powered Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) platform that helps transfer cutting-edge brain research into real-world benefits for end users.
REVAI & TWS
True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds offer precise anatomical fit for REVAI VNS sensor technology and a proven form factor used by millions of consumers.
REVAI’s solution consists of:
APPLICATIONS
VNS is effective for relaxation and cognition applications.
Learning
VNS induces positive short- and long-term effects on memory performance.
Wellness
VNS activates the parasympathetic nervous system that reduces anxiety.
Future Indications
VNS for multiple indications is actively being studied by a global research community.
TECHNOLOGY
AI-Powered Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) involves electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve at the cymba concha of the outer ear. This technique has proven to be a robust approach to neuromodulation, affecting aspects of cognition and well-being.
Our patented solution leverages an AI/ML platform to personalize user experience through any REVAI-enabled TWS earbuds.
