Develop Apps for Education with BrainBit Free SDK
Use BrainBit hardware and our free SDK to visualize attention in real time, color-code distraction, and help students explore how mindset affects learning - on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Unity (beta).
Why EEG in the Classroom
Most tools infer engagement from clicks or motion. BrainBit reads EEG, giving teachers and students direct brain-based insight during tasks, projects, and labs. Pair that with simple visuals so learners see what focus looks like and how to get back to it.
-
Measure the level of focus
-
Define drivers for distraction (noise, multitasking, fatigue)
-
Improve attention capacity with feedback and practice
-
Monitor brain state during activities (reading, coding, exams)
What You Can Build (Education Features)
Build classroom-ready neuroscience apps with real EEG.
-
Color-coded attention dashboards
that display focus vs. distraction during tasks
-
Live “mind-state” meters
driven by alpha/beta/theta activity
-
Lesson-mode timers & annotations
for experiments and group work
-
Activity reports
that summarize attention trends over a session or week
-
Project templates
for student labs (e.g., “noise vs. focus,” “music and study”)
-
