I'm biased because of my work, but neural interfaces for general purpose tasking or entertainment. Alot of fMRI/EEG/MEG research is focused on medical applications, but the funding cycle is tied heavily into medical related grants, and current applications meditation tasks that are popular generally wont get people excited (I've ran a lot of novice/experienced mediators who have started to fall asleep or become disengaged from a research task and who need continues human engagement to keep them in the mood…), nor convince people that what they are buying is worthwhile, unlike say buying $500+ gaming system and games people play for hours on end without having to convince someone of it working when they just get the immediate benefit. This could also help get more people from software or other engineering backgrounds more exposed to the field now and help push things forward faster.
