Lucid dreams sound pretty cool. You get to wake up in your own dream or become aware that you are dreaming while in the process. If you experience a lucid dream, it is said that you will be able to control the dream, which could make for some really wild dreams where, in some ways, you can make the impossible possible, or literally have your dreams come to reality, even if just in the dream world. It feels magical, and just being able to experience it must be an incredible feeling. Which is why a new tech startup called Prophetic wants people to have the ability to induce lucid dreams on demand, by creating a wearable device that enables them to do just that.

Right now, the company is working on the Halo, which detects when people are in REM sleep, and then, stabilize and induce lucid dreaming. According to their website, they want to use it in order to pursue answers to life’s biggest questions. Of course, lucid dreams are said to help people overcome nightmares, relieve anxiety and PTSD, and even improve motor skills. The cofounders of Prophetic have no specific medical claims for their device, but are partnering with researchers to explore the technology and possible benefits.
