How it Works
The Nova Dreamer appears to be a sort of electronically enhanced sleep mask worn over the eyes of the user upon going to sleep. According to the product's official site, it can detect when the user has entered REM sleep (the state in which dreaming occurs).Official Site: NovaDreamer: Lucid Dream Induction Device It then produces a signal—light, sound, or a combination of both—that acts as an cue, allowing the user to recognize that he or she is dreaming. According to testimony on the site, this signal can penetrate the dreamstate in fanciful ways—one user reports, "I see a beautiful pattern of gold and yellow diamonds that fills my field of vision."Official Site: NovaDreamer: Lucid Dream Induction Device
