SEOUL, May 18 (Korea Bizwire)The world’s first brainwave-based in-vehicle healthcare technology, developed by Hyundai Mobis Co., South Korea’s leading auto parts maker, will be utilized for psychological consultations with children.

The company on Wednesday announced the delivery of its brainwave-based driver monitoring system, M.Brain, to six childcare organizations nationwide.

The design and comfort of wear have been enhanced.

The newly designed M.Brain incorporates visual representations of familiar objects, such as stars and leaves, to provide children with a sense of comfort and familiarity.

By measuring brainwaves in real-time, M.Brain can assess children’s psychological conditions, including stress and anxiety, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of consultations.

Initially developed to analyze drivers’ brainwaves and prevent accidents caused by drowsy driving or negligence, M.Brain now serves a new purpose in children’s psychological consultations.

Hyundai Mobis recently introduced a second-generation model of M.Brain, reducing its weight by approximately 60 percent and extending the run time from three to eight hours compared to the first-generation model.

The company intends to collaborate with municipal governments and transportation companies for practical demonstrations and implementation in various areas.
