LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 5, 2026--
Today, on the opening day at CES, Neurable announced it’s working with HP Inc.’s HyperX gaming brand to develop an industry-first gaming headset outfitted with neurotechnology. This strategic collaboration demonstrates how AI and neuroscience can work together to help players improve their focus and accuracy by interpreting brain activity in real time.

“We’ve always been about empowering power players with the best technology to play, and now with our strategic collaboration with Neurable, we look forward to giving more insight into how one’s cognitive skills and focus impacts their gameplay to ultimately make them as competitive as possible,” said Josephine Tan, Senior Vice President and Division President of Personal Systems Gaming Solutions, HP Inc.
The global gaming market remains a dominant force in entertainment, estimated to generate $187.7 billion in 2024 with forecasts reaching $213.3 billion by 2027. Within this expanding landscape, gaming wearables represent a massive commercial frontier; currently valued at approximately $5 billion, the sector is projected to quadruple to nearly $20 billion by 2034. This momentum, driven by a demand for deeper immersion and performance tracking, underscores a prime opportunity for neurotechnology to redefine the industry and establish the next essential wearable for gamers.
The HyperX neurotechnology-powered wearable headset integrates Neurable’s non-invasive neurotechnology, demonstrating how real-time brain insights can enhance player performance. In a preliminary study with semi-professional esports athletes, Neurable’s neurofeedback “Prime” system delivered measurable gains: everyday gamers and esports athletes showed faster reaction times, improved accuracy, and a higher number of targets during FPS training sessions. On average, participants improved reaction time by 43 milliseconds, increased accuracy by 0.53%, and hit nearly 9 additional targets in a target shooting psychometric task. Among collegiate and professional esports players, the impact was even more pronounced, as accuracy rose nearly 3% with a decrease in reaction time by 38 milliseconds, and they hit more than 21 additional targets on average.
“HyperX allows us to bring neurotechnology to gamers at a scale we’ve never been able to reach before,” said Ramses Alcaide, CEO and Co-Founder of Neurable. “We look forward to the excitement of this strategic relationship, which represents a promising future of gaming, one where understanding your mind becomes as natural as understanding your mechanics. By making brain-computer interfaces (BCI) intuitive and invisible inside the tools players already use, we’re proving that neuroscience can meaningfully elevate performance and transform the way people play.”
This announcement comes at a pivotal moment for BCI and brain-tracking technologies as they move from research environments into consumer products. As more players adopt tools that measure and improve their performance, neurotechnology is emerging as the next major trend in fitness and wellness wearables. Neurable’s advancements in AI modeling, signal accuracy, and sensor miniaturization position the company to lead this shift. HyperX, as one of the world’s most trusted gaming brands, will empower this momentum.

Neurable Introduces Neurotechnology-Powered Gaming Wearable Headset With HyperX
PARIS (AP) — Aryna Sabalenka's diamonds sparkled in the sun when she won her first-round match at the heat-soakedFrench Open on Tuesday.
Top-ranked Sabalenka looked light on her feet on Court Philippe-Chatrier, despite wearing two thick necklaces in a 6-4, 6-2 win against Jessica Bouzas Maneiro.
“Diamonds, I don’t really feel the heaviness, but I can imagine how it looks from the outside,” said Sabalenka, the tournament runner-up last year to Coco Gauff. “So I feel pretty comfortable. For me, it’s important to look good.”
The four-time major winner was initially going to wear three necklaces but said she thought that might be too much.
“It probably sounds a bit crazy, but when I feel good about what I’m wearing, how I look on court, I tend to perform much better,” she said. "I like to bring a little bit of a fashion on the tennis court. I know the dress that I will wear on the Grand Slam, and I just try to come up with something to match the outfit."
Sabalenka said she wasn't worried over her jewelry away from Roland Garros.
“I have my fiancé. He’s kind of like my security,” she said, smiling. “My physio does jujitsu, so I feel pretty secure walking around. If I go somewhere, I don’t go alone.”
Gauff began her title defense with a 6-4, 6-0 victory over fellow American Taylor Townsend, while four-time major winner Naomi Osaka beat Laura Siegemund 6-3, 7-6 (3) on Court Suzanne-Lenglen.
The fashion-conscious Osaka again caught the eye with a sequined gold playing dress.
Frenchwoman Lois Boisson, who made a surprise run to the semifinals last year when she was ranked 361st, lost 6-2, 6-2 to the 22nd-seeded Anna Kalinskaya.
For a third consecutive day, the temperature in Paris was forecast to rise to at least 32 degrees Celsius (90 Fahrenheit).
The unusually hot conditions made the courts faster than usual.
Daniil Medvedev usually thrives in such conditions but he struggled in a five-set loss to 97th-ranked Australian opponent Adam Walton.
Walton, who received a wild card invitation from tournament organizers, beat Medvedev 6-2, 1-6, 6-1, 1-6, 6-4. It was Medvedev's second straight first round exit here and third in four years.
“I know why I don’t really play my best in Roland Garros, but if I say it, it’s (making) excuses,” he said. “So I keep it to myself.”
Stefanos Tsitsipas, the 2021 runner-up to Novak Djokovic, was leading 6-2, 3-0 against Alexandre Muller when his French opponent retired. Muller injured his right calf, three months after injuring his left calf.
Alexander Blockx withdrew from the tournament with a right ankle sprain, making Alex de Minaur — his scheduled second round opponent — the first player into the third round.
Later, top-ranked Jannik Sinner looks to extend his 29-match winning streak when he opens against French wild card Clement Tabur in the night session.
French teenager Moïse Kouamé made the perfect start to his French Open career with a 7-6 (4), 6-2, 6-1 win over Marin Cilic.
The 17-year-old Kouamé won one day after 39-year-old Frenchman Gael Monfils made his last appearance at Roland Garros.
The teenager raised his arms in triumph after defeating the 37-year-old Cilic, who won the 2014 U.S. Open, finished runner-up at two other majors, and reached the French Open semifinals in 2022.
The ATP Tour said No. 318-ranked Kouamé became the first man born in 2008 or later to win a Grand Slam match.
In March, he became the youngest winner in Miami Masters history when he beat Zachary Svajda in the first round — earning a congratulatory message from Djokovic.
