This is cool. Can you make this work for more complex recipes, e.g., with restaurants? Perhaps import recipes in a standard format to automate? I can see this being a differentiator for catering companies that serve employee lunches (e.g., Forkable).

The second one is going to blow your mind.

Creating an off-earth self-sustaining civilization is also a way to insure ourselves against a non-human-caused catastrophe that could near-wipe-out humanity. A sequential approach -- solving our most pressing issues first before even thinking about becoming a space-faring civilization -- seems near-sighted and inefficient, especially given the other advantages (technology advances and perspective that might make issues like climate change and income inequality less partisan) from a full-throttle effort toward becoming a multi-planetary species.
Thanks for your response! The references cited in your literature overview seems to focus on neuro feedback for ADHD, which is a great market. I remember reading recently that pediatric ADHD is on the rise and that it's super underdiagnosed - I'd imagine an effective diagnosis+management solution in this specific space to be extremely lucrative.
Also, I don't know if you'll get this from others, but simply saying "mental health" made me immediately think of depression and related issues. My suggestion would be to refine your problem and solution statement to narrowly talk about your initial target segment (ADHD, autism, etc.) of the broader mental health space.
Good luck to your team!
(1) How established is the science on EEG data effectively diagnosing mental health problems? Could you link me to some relevant literature?
(2) Who is your target customer? Are you planning on selling these through therapists/psychologists as a way for them to follow-up with and monitor their already-diagnosed patients? Or is it a direct-to-consumer product that lets an average person diagnose themselves and seek help? I think that the latter approach could have an insanely high adoption barrier.
