Not sure if this has been posted but appearently *Link Removed* company made 40 Hz lucid dreaming stimulation mask or something like that: |

For such a small device you would need a big wallet. Over $400 dollars for the kit, etc. although the developer's edition is on offer at a reduction of $100. |

Hello SearcherTMR, thanks for the welcome. |

Ok, both factors were affected by the stimulation - but look more close as they say for magic tricks... |

I did not realize the low ratings on the charts that you posted at first when I originally read them. But now that you pointed them out, it make Voss's claims of lucidity more speculative at the least if not fraudulent. Wonder how many other people also missed that little detail. Less than 1 one her own "lucid scale" for insight at 40hz certainly isn't good, abysmal actually. Thanks for clearing that up SearcherTMR |

I think itīs very hard to interpret a study as a a non-psychologist. Yes, the scale is too low to speak from full blown lucidity. But itīs just because the test-subjects didnīt know about lucid dreaming. If they knew about the subject, the little nudge would be enough so they could improve the lucidity (and awareness) with techniques like rubbing their hands together or spinning around. Because they didnīt do the techniques, the awareness was much lower than in normal lucid dreams but much higher than in normal dreams. But the most important things are the experiences: We heard from jeffg (a trusted member in this forum) that it works. The newest experiences are really exciting: Some guy works on a tacs headband named "LdreamM". Itīs not just support tacs, but also eeg recording, lucid dreaming triggering with sounds played when the headband detects REM sleep, it can wake you after REM sleep (which makes it a effective WBTB helper and helps you to wake up refreshed), you can even use it when you are awake for biofeedback etc.. At first the lucid dream triggering with tacs wasnīt too effective because the electrodes impedance was too high. Now, with the right kind of electrodes he was able to get 2 lucid dreams in the first night. But he didnīt used the tacs stimulation as usual while he was asleep, he used it while he was awake 14 hours before he went to bed. He did the same thing yesterday and was able to archive 6 (!) lucid dreams in one night. But the most exciting thing is: He donīt make this all for profit. You can read his story here: *Link removed* |

Interesting news indeed. I am the first to get excited with a truly working auto-lucidity device (that's why I build my own tACS device) but I am afraid this is not the case here as it was not in Dr Vosse's trials... |

A couple of more optimistic points: |

Good points. |

Hi Everybody, I have just found your forum. My name is Tibor Pajer, I am the developer of LdreamM headset. After reading all the posts in this thread, let me share with you my points about the development, the financial issues and experiments. |

^^ You're absolutely right about not giving up easily after a few trials. I personally can't wait to see the extensive, multi-month studies with hundreds of subjects across a spectrum of prior LDing experience on your device, of course with proper study controls like placebo controls. After all, that's what a serious product would have, right? |

Thanks for the report. Based on what you're saying it does seem as though there's some reason for hope. If every time whey send a new one it works the first night, then that suggests that there is a replicable effect there, even if something is preventing continued success (like a flexible PC board that breaks after one session of use). Fingers crossed, and thanks again for the report. Interesting stuff. |

The time to get excited is if/when someone's *long-term* LD frequency jumps from say 20% to 80+%. First night results can be basically thrown away. With the devices so fragile to start with, it's entirely likely all results were pure placebo. |
