Generally, I have no use for such a device, but I figure someone else might.
During the dream, I attended a lecture, then a professor and researcher of dreams handed me something. It looked like a plastic pouch, which held about 25 oz. of (darker) red liquid. He said to put it just above my pillow at night, and it would induce LDs. I followed him, asking him how it works, but he only reiterated to put in on the bed then I will LD. This did cause an idea while still dreaming.
Now, it's been well documented that some people vibrate right before transitioning into a WILD. If you know electromagnetism, you know why cellular phones don't work in elevators. In principle, the metal polarizes causing an equal but opposite electric field which cancels the original. Similarly, that's how this red liquid was used.
Right as we begin transitioning into a dream, the red liquid will respond to the vibrations by "polarizing" and sending an amplified response back to the dreamer. The more intense vibrations should effectively startle the dreamer enough to revive their awareness, without breaking their concentration and destroying the dream. After the dream begins, I assume the vibration would stop and likewise the response, so the dreamer won't be vibrating during the entire dream.
This way, no lights, sounds or any unnatural stimuli is added to the sleep process, and only the naturally occuring vibrations are used.

So all we need is some magical red liquid? :|

Actually, this post should have emphasized the process, the idea or the theory. The magical red liquid was mercury, and also thrown into the mix was a white chemical in powder form. It could have been potassium, calcium, sodium, or another element from that area of the periodic table.
I don't know the proportions either, and I'm not sure I would trust a dream to that. The mixture did have some metallic properties (mercury is a metal). I did some Googling, and it led to alchemy links, which is currently beyond me.
I think we can agree, we would not want to put a toxic substance in a plastic bag right next to us as we sleep, for experimenting with LDs. So why don't we focus on the idea of our WILD vibrations being amplified, so we feel it and it startles us into a state of awareness when we begin dreaming.
