French startup E(ye)Brain, in collaboration with neurologists at La Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris, has been working on a video-oculography measurement technology for early diagnosis of neurological diseases. The company has recently announced that its Mobile Eye Brain Tracker will soon be hitting the market, probably in Europe and elsewhere, except for the United States where no FDA clearance has been given to the device. The company hopes that its technology will be validated for early diagnosis in a range of disorders, such as progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, multiple sclerosis, and even Parkinson’s.
