Amorepacific has created an 'industry first' mind-linked Bathbot that recommends fragrances and colours based on consumers' brainwaves.

The South Korean beauty giant uses electroencephalography (EEG) to analyse the electrical activity of the brain neurons in real-time to create a personalised bath bomb based on the emotions detected.

Developed in partnership with R&D hub IMEC, the ergonomically-designed headset identifies three indicators – valence, arousal and preference – to determine the emotional state of the user.

The Bathbot then recommends fragrances and colours to create a personalised bath bomb to suit their needs.
