Oregon Scientific introduced their DreamScience machine, an apparatus designed to improve sleep, at this year's CES.
The machine utilizes "Sleep Enhancement Technology," a term which refers to the fluctuation of volume and rhythm, to create an ambient sound and thus, a relaxing environment for sleep to take place. The machine also uses "Brainwave Embedded Sounds," to target certain parts of the brain and help ease the user into sleep.
The actual appliance features 20 different ambient audio possibilities, which can be displayed on an accompanying LCD screen, along with a timer, alarm clock, six mood lights and a port for connecting alternate audio devices. The DreamScience machine is joined by another product by Oregon Scientific, the AuraBreeze Aroma Diffuser, which also provides unique soundscapes and mood lighting, along with spurts of aromatherapy vapor.
