Looxid Labs is a developer of emotion recognition systems for virtual reality interactions, providing an analytics solution that tracks insights based on users' emotional reactions to VR experiences. The company's technology combines a mobile-powered VR headset with eye-tracking and EEG sensors that measure users' eye movements and brainwaves, enabling the capture of biometric signals during immersive experiences.
