<p>A method and apparatus where the eyes of a user are alternately occluded and exposed in synchronisation with the user's heartbeat to enhance bilateral brain activity. The pulse rate is detected (5, figure 2) and liquid crystal shutters (LCS) 1, 2 positioned in front of the eyes (as lenses 1, 2 on a pair of spectacles) are successively activated in synchronisation with heart beat to alternatively expose each eye to it's visual field for the whole heart interbeat period. An audio click may be provided in the same ear as the exposed eye using a set of headphones to provide multi-sensory stimulation. The heart beat may be measured using a pulse sensor (5, figure 2) or an ECG. Uses include the improvement of mood and increase of alertness, and improvement of slow inter-hemispheric switching.</p> |
