The wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) headsets market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.55 billion in 2024 to $1.75 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expanding applications beyond clinical settings, growing focus on user-friendliness and data security, changing lifestyles, huge potential in emerging markets, and increasing focus on healthcare infrastructure.

The wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) headsets market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.78 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing incidence of neurovascular diseases, growing awareness of mental health issues, demand for non-invasive monitoring solutions across many industries, increase in traumatic brain injuries, and increasing demand for early diagnosis and continuous monitoring of neurological disorders. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, growing prevalence of neurological disorders, increasing geriatric population, wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) headsets are gaining popularity, and rising demand for non-invasive monitoring solutions.

The increasing prevalence of cerebrovascular diseases is expected to drive the growth of the wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) headsets market. Cerebrovascular diseases are conditions that affect the blood vessels and blood supply to the brain, leading to issues such as stroke, aneurysm, and vascular dementia. The rising occurrence of risk factors like hypertension, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol further intensifies the prevalence of cerebrovascular diseases. Wearable EEG headsets provide a non-invasive and effective method to monitor brain activity, making them useful in both clinical and research environments. For example, in October 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK government agency, reported that cerebrovascular diseases led to 29,474 deaths in 2023, accounting for 5.1% of all fatalities, with a 0.7% increase in deaths compared to 2022. As a result, the growing incidence of cerebrovascular diseases is contributing to the expansion of the wearable EEG headsets market.

Key players in the wearable EEG headsets market are advancing their products with new technologies such as dry electrode EEG, which enhances user convenience and improves brain activity monitoring accuracy. Dry electrode EEG technology makes these headsets more comfortable, practical, and suitable for daily use and extended monitoring. For example, in February 2023, Wearable Sensing, a US-based neurotechnology firm, partnered with Soterix Medical, a US-based biotechnology company, to launch the Dry Electroencephalogram (EEG) + tDCS system. This headset integrates dry electrode EEG technology with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), featuring six customizable EEG sensors and two tDCS electrodes. It uses the QStates machine learning algorithm to adjust stimulation based on cognitive states, enhancing its applications in neuroscience research and therapy.

In January 2024, Aditxt Inc., a US-based biotech firm, acquired a suite of EEG brain monitoring technologies and devices, including the NeuroCap and NeuroEEG, from Brain Scientific Inc. for $2.625 million. This acquisition, which includes 16 patents, is set to strengthen Aditxt's subsidiary, Pearsanta, Inc., and support its entry into the advanced neurological diagnostics and monitoring sector. Brain Scientific Inc., a US-based medical equipment manufacturer, specializes in disposable EEG headsets and portable EEG devices.
