It's an electronic shusher. When unwanted brain waves are detected, a sound is produced and sent via bone conducting earphones. Similar to how you would prod your partner when they snore too loudly.
I'd bet a simple loudspeaker with pink noise wouldn't fare worse (as in: that's basically what is helping here, too).

Am I misremembering, or was Ubeam, the founder’s previous start up, not sort of a legendary disaster/borderline fraud?
I’ll pass, thanks.
