MENTAGRAPH Unveils Innovative Smart Ring 'Mentoring2' at CES 2026 to Support Mental Well-being

Introduction to Mentoring2 at CES 2026



MENTAGRAPH Inc., a subsidiary of Japan Tobacco (JT), recently took part in the globally renowned CES 2026, held from January 6 to January 9 in Las Vegas, USA. The company introduced a groundbreaking smart ring titled 'Mentoring2,' designed to continuously visualize and support mental well-being by monitoring stress levels and prompting appropriate breaks for users.

Key Features of Mentoring2



The 'Mentoring2' smart ring is equipped with four unique sensors that employ proprietary algorithms to calculate accumulated stress levels. Designed by NAOTO FUKASAWA DESIGN, led by the world-renowned designer Naoto Fukasawa, the ring showcases a stylish form that seamlessly blends into daily life. With a focus on mental health, the product aims to expand into personal services, promoting new ways for individuals to engage with their mental wellbeing.

Visualizing Mental Fatigue



The ring’s cutting-edge features allow it to capture and visualize mental fatigue throughout the day. By employing high-accuracy biometric data from skin electrical activity, pulse waves, peripheral temperature, and motion estimation, the 'Mentoring2' can consistently monitor stress levels. This novel approach allows users to receive real-time insights into their mental state via an app, thus encouraging timely breaks for restorative purposes.

User-Friendly Design



The reinvented design of 'Mentoring2' is not only more stylish but also more compact than its predecessor, available in seven different sizes to ensure a comfortable fit for everyone. This design versatility allows it to transition naturally from business environments to various lifestyles, thus supporting individuals in their unique mental journeys.

Relaxonic Cover: Experience Deep Relaxation



Alongside the unveiling of 'Mentoring2,' MENTAGRAPH also featured the 'Relaxonic Cover,' a speedy relaxation eye mask with advanced ultrasonic and warmth functions. This innovative product provides high-quality relaxation experiences through hyper-sonic technology and gentle heat, targeting both the eyes and ears to promote deep relaxation in a short time.

Cultural Rest Area: A Unique Experience



To complement the high-tech offerings, MENTAGRAPH created a traditional 'Wabi-Sabi' themed relaxation booth. With tatami mat flooring, this space allows CES attendees to take a refreshing break between the expo’s activities, reflecting Japan’s rich cultural heritage while enhancing their event experience.

Insight from Leadership



Jun Adachi, the CEO of MENTAGRAPH, shared his insights on the journey to develop the 'Mental Battery' service and the new smart ring. He emphasized how technology can help visualize invisible emotional states, hence empowering users to recognize their strengths and weaknesses, fostering personal growth in mental well-being. He expressed eagerness to gather feedback at CES to fuel future innovations and collaborations, hoping to connect with attendees and industry professionals alike.
