I am interested in expanding the ways people interact with digital devices and also exploring applications of calm computing and ambient technologies. While sleep health is fast becoming crowded with various IoT solutions, scoping to just dreams felt unique.
There are a number of connected devices available today which use scents to help people either fall asleep or wake up. There are mobile apps which act as dream journals or that provide visual and auditory cues before falling asleep in order to embed dreams - in either case, the user must initiate the activity.
The proposed device will use the biofeedback from a smartwatch or fitness tracker to determine sleep patterns - and identify when dreaming is most likely to occur.
