1. A wearable electronic device for enabling access to a transit system, the wearable electronic device comprising:

  • an electroencephalography (EEG) sensor configured to detect an EEG signal resulting from a transit user viewing either a first visual stimulus displayed by a first display mounted to a first gate or a second visual stimulus displayed by a second display mounted to a second gate;

    a device transmitter configured to transmit wireless signals to a gate receiver; and

    a device processor configured to perform operations including;

    receiving the EEG signal from the EEG sensor;

    analyzing the EEG signal to determine whether the transit user is attempting to enter the transit system through the first gate or the second gate;

    in response to determining that the transit user is attempting to enter the transit system through the first gate, generating a request signal, wherein the request signal identifies the transit user and indicates that the transit user is attempting to enter the transit system through the first gate; and

    wirelessly transmitting, using the device transmitter, the request signal to the gate receiver.
