InstaDreamer: Wearable Device to Control Dreams

Lucid dreaming is, in short, conscious dreaming. It’s knowing you’re dreaming when you’re dreaming, which may come with the added bonus of becoming the architect of the events and environments around you. The possibilities are endless, say lucid dreaming practitioners, limited only by your alarm clock. Though lucid dreaming comes naturally to some, it’s known to be triggered and manipulated through habitual “reality checks” meant to help differentiate the real world from the dream world. That’s where the Instadreamer comes in. Starting out on Kickstarter for $200, the InstaDreamer is a wearable bracelet that looks to aid users in the quest to learn how to lucid dream. Through Pavlovian conditioning, involving subtle vibrations on the wrist, the device is able to train users to perform 'reality checks' - a self-awareness technique to help train the mind to realise its conscious state - as well as tracking overall sleep.
