Electronically aided FILD (finger-induced lucid dream)
I'm working on a mobile version of one of my desktop apps to brush up on a development framework.
The first tool it has is an electronic FILD aid. You press down on a button by relaxing your finger and a countdown starts. Just like normal FILD, you lift your finger ever so slightly and drop it again to reset the timer. Do this every few seconds and if you drift off, the phone vibrates and plays an audio track so you can regain consciousness, ideally in a dream.
I am fairly confident it will have a significant and measurable effect, or at least some mild hypnagogic hallucinations. Especially if performed when you are already tired and about to fall asleep after waking up in the middle of the night after a wake-back-to-bed session while thinking about an alternate ending with lucidity to your last dream.

If you don't have an Android device there is a web version: Lucid Scribe App - it also has some mindfulness exercises and I'm busy messing with reality checks:

Appreciate any feedback and some beta testers!
I might try my hand at running a study... if it gets any results I'd like to see if we can reproduce MIT's TDI (Targeted Dream Incubation) with a some suggestive audio tracks: https://www.media.mit.edu/projects/t...tion/overview/ :armflap:
Lucid Dreaming and Mindfulness Exercises on Android
I've been working on an app with lucid dreaming and mindfulness exercises. Starting to get a collection going:

The latest is a Deep Playlist that can play custom MP3s over the media channel, even when the app is in the background and the screen is off with the phone on mute and in battery saver mode!
Could use some downloads and appreciate any feedback: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...de.lucidscribe
