Naqi Logix Recognized for Groundbreaking Neural Earbuds

by

Vancouver-based Naqi Logix has been honored in the Innovative Tech category of the TWICE VIP Awards 2024 for its Naqi Neural Earbud, a revolutionary Human Machine Interface (HMI) technology. The earbuds allow users to control devices through facial micro gestures like head tilts or eye blinks, eliminating the need for touch, voice, or screen commands.
