San Jose, CA, and Munich, Germany, January 18, 2010 - As Chief Executive Officer of NeuroSky, Inc., Stanley Yang is the visionary behind the bio-sensor company that has quickly become the global leader in mass market Brain-Computer Interface technology.

NeuroSky has developed a revolutionary non-invasive neural communication sensor that converts brainwaves and other bio-signals into digital electronic signals. This "ThinkGear" technology can control electronic devices, enable machines to adept to people, and further enhance education and research on creative applications powered by the brain. NeuroSky has forged successful partnerships with a broad range of companies from Fortune 500 industry leaders to innovative independent developers. 

So far, NeuroSky is best known for their technology in Mattel's MindFlex and Uncle Milton's Star Wars Force Trainer, two of the most popular Christmas toys in the United States last year. The Mindflex was recently released in the EU. Also, NeuroSky’s partner Interaxon received world wide headlines with their Thought Controlled Computing installation in the Ontario house at the 2009 Winter Olympics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbo-TL9bEwo&feature=related This installation allowed attendees to control the lights on Niagra Falls and the CN tower, using only the power of their minds. In addition to the installation, NeuroSky’s partnerships include work with the USA, Croatian and Chinese Olympic archer teams.

NeuroSky will be releasing the low cost MindWave headset shortly in the EU and recently announced the release of the BrainAthlete, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLCPXn2f3Hk a partner product that helps athletes “get into the Zone”.
