Unpopular opinion: my BCI trial week in Phoenix was actually a huge letdown

I mean, the signal drift after just 3 hours made the cursor control basically unusable, which nobody in the promo videos mentioned. Has anyone else had a demo that fell way short of the hype?

Used to be a believer but that drift issue sounds brutal.

Saw a tech blog deep dive on that exact drift problem. They said the lab demos use perfect conditions that real life messes up fast, like sweat or moving your head a little. Makes sense why your trial went sideways after a few hours. Tyler_hunt72 is right, it's a brutal flaw they don't talk about. Felt like reading about my own bad VR setup, all hype until the hardware can't keep up.
