20220353972 · 2022-11-03 ·

The present invention is comprised of a novel solar radiation simulation device that simulates the sun by radiating the same spectrum of wavelengths, with the accompanying power levels, as the sun when the sun projects energy upon the Earth in accordance with the time of the day, year, and location. It will bring “the sun inside.” The device can be controlled manually by an end-user or can include pre-programmed modes that control settings of the device or can be dynamically controlled through the input from solar light meters located around the world. This device improves human health but can also be used as a typical light source and can even function as an entertainment device.

20230126680 · 2023-04-27 ·

Gamma brain stimulation (around 40 Hz) is performed using light pulses. To perform theta brain stimulation (around 7 Hz) without perceptible flicker, the light source is also strobed at 47 Hz (also within the gamma range). The brain perceives the 40 Hz and a subtraction frequency of 7 Hz (in the theta range). The combined gamma and theta wave stimulation of the brain may be used for preventing or treating brain disease or sleeping disorders. The particular stimulation frequencies and their phases create neuronal gamma-theta coupling in the brain that has been shown to have positive effects on memory, Alzheimer's disease, motor skills, and other functions. Other gamma and theta frequencies, creating gamma-theta coupling in the brain, are also beneficial. The phase of the light pulses is also dynamically controlled using feedback to maximize theta-gamma coupling in the brain.
