Thread: Extraneous stimuli

Reading the front DV web I found an interesting idea, to experiment with extraneous stimuli as sounds, lights... It's known that those external stimuli are reflected into our dreams, so it could be another way to attain lucidity.

Most people won't found any person who could touch them, or play with a light in his face before dawn so the idea is as follow: I'd like to develope an electronic device that could apply you those sounds, touchs or lights when a REM is detected. That is, some kind of device that waits until you are sleep, detects your REM and apply you some stimuli. I think that with some training you could recognize those signs into your dreams.

The problem about it is: anyone here knows anything about electronics? I know enough for that and some more, but I want to experiment with someone else, and he/she will need to make his own device, and that would need some electronic knowledgment. Of course I'll try to make the most simple circuits I could, and it could be PC-controlled.

I got the NovaDreamer as a reference, but I want something more, not only 4 leds, I speak about sounds, touching...

What do you think about this?
