Now you can find out if someone really likes you in mere seconds thanks to Brain Kiss.

Utilizing [iPads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comet-q) and a headset equipped with special sensors, Brain Kiss is an app that quickly scans the brain waves of two people to see if they are compatible. The process is fairly simple; you and the potential object of your affection sit down across from one another and put on your special headsets that are linked to the Brain Kiss app via bluetooth. After staring into each other's eyes for about 15 seconds, the results of your compatibility are displayed on the [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikebana-reflections) and you can decide whether you want to jump for joy or howl in heartbreak.

No telling whether or not this app will prove to be a [modern matchmaking machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheers-dating-app), but at the very least it can provide some people with a little comic relief. And it makes an excellent ice breaker for blind dates.
