Naox Technologies wins FDA clearance for earbud-based EEG

Naox Technologies has received FDA 501(k) clearance for its wired electroencephelography (EEG) earphones, Naox Link.

Paris-based Naox Technologies says it is taking its EEG sensors to the next level by making them small enough to be earbuds. These wired EEG earphones, showcased at CES 2026 in Las Vegas this week, would allow healthcare professionals to monitor brain activity remotely. In addition, the company’s Naox Wave is a consumer-focused set of earbuds that can be integrated with any true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds.

This functionality allows original equipment manufacturer partners to add real brain-signal sensing to devices people already wear every day.
