MindRider
A bike helmet that tracks your engagement, stress levels and map out your sweet spots on your route
Originally developed at MIT, MindRider is a head-based wearable that tracks, in real time, how your rides, movement, and location engage your mind. The MindRider app maps your engagement, giving you new insight into your riding experience. Part of the Multimer analytics system, Mindrider is the first biosensor developed to collect human experience data and process it in a large-scale, location-aware context.
One MindRider cyclist turns his commute into a kind of mind-training game. After reviewing his MindRider maps and learning which routes have the most Sweetspots and Hotspots, he often challenges himself to relax his mind and turn his Hotspot-heavy routes into Sweetspots all the way from home to work.
