A revolutionary smart mask promises to help you stave off the dreaded effect
s of jet lag by preparing your body for the time difference before you even board
the flight.
It syncs with an app to tell you when to seek light in the days before a journe
y,and artificially triggers sensors in your eyes during the flight to trick the brain in
to adjusting to the new time zone.
The NeuroOn mask can also help non-travellers regulate their sleeping patter
ns and get a better night's kip.
NeuroOn was designed by Warsaw-based Kamil Adamczyk,24,from the Intel
Clinic.
It is fitted with sensors that monitor brainwaves,eye movement,oxygen levels
and the wearer's body temperature before sending this information to an app on
their connected phone.
After analysing the data,the mask will wake the wearer up when they are in th
e lightest stage of their sleep cycle and therefore closest to being awake.
This is done using Bright Light Therapy which artificially triggers the light sen
sors in a person's eyes to make their brain believe the sun is coming up.
This makes their body feel as though it is morning and that they are waking u
p naturally.
The therapy can be used to rouse people gently so that they feel more refres
hed and less tired.
Or it can trick the brain into thinking it is in a different time zone.
Mr Adamczyk said:'The NeuroOn is an artificial light source-it activates the lig
ht sensitive receptors that send information to our brains.
'More specifically it targets the pineal gland-the part of the brain that produc
es melatonin,the sleep hormone.
'The device understands our body clock and with light therapy it can manage
the production of sleep hormone in the brain.
'Another important feature of the device was the design-the mask is touchin
g your face for the whole night,so it must be extremely comfortable and function
al at the same time.'
Mr Adamczyk,from Warsaw in Poland,came with the idea for the NeuroOn wh
en he was struggling to sleep during his exams at a medical university.
He said:'I was running out of time and skipped sleeping-I was constantly tired
and but still had problems falling asleep.
'I started looking for information about why I couldn't fall asleep even when I'
m 's when I discovered that our body clock could be controlled externall
y.'
The project was funded using Kickstarter and is currently in the prototype sta
ge.
The final product will be sent out in September to those who backed the proj
ect on Kickstarter and also those who pre-ordered a model.
The sleeping mask,which is machine washable,can be pre-ordered on Neuro
On's website for$299 and will be shipped internationally after the initial run is pro
cessed.
